2012 Ocean Ranger Guidebook 3-7-12 Dispersion: The breaking up of an oil slick into small droplets which are mixed into the water column as a result of breaking waves and other sea surface turbulence. DMR: Discharge Monitoring Report, a report submitted to ADEC listing wastewater sample results and any violations of the General Permit, VSSP, or QAPP. Effluent: To flow out. (Waste material, refuse, and sewage) Emulsification: The formation of a water - in - oil mixture. In the environment, the tendency for emulsification to occur varies with different oils and is much more likely to occur under high-energy conditions (wind and waves). Emulsions may also be formed by surfactants, including detergents, which cause the oil and water to mix, or by mechanical means such as pressure washing or pump action. EPA VGP: The Environmental Protection Agencies Vessel General Permit. Equipment having and oil to sea interface: Equipment that uses a seal to prevent leakage of oil into the sea. Examples, oil-lubricated stern tube seals, hydraulically-driven stabilizer fin seals, bow and stern thruster seals. An indicator that system seals are leaking to the sea may be evidence of frequent filling of system reservoirs, presence of barrels, drums, hoses, pumps, and other equipment/supplies/arrangements necessary to refill systems. Some ships’ SMS or environmental compliance programs may require that records of refilling such systems are kept. If so, these records should be checked. Fecal Coliform Bacteria: Bacteria found in the intestinal tracts of mammals. Their presence in water or sludge is an indicator of pollution and possible contamination by pathogens. Free Cl2: Free Chlorine test method Garbage (from 33 CFR 151): Garbage means all kinds of victual, domestic, and operational waste, excluding fresh fish and parts thereof, generated during the normal operation of the ship and liable to be disposed of continuously or periodically, except dishwater, graywater, and those substances that are defined or listed in other Annexes to MARPOL 73/78. General Permit: The State of Alaska General Permit for the Marine Discharge of Treated Sewage and Treated Graywater from Commercial Passenger Vessels Operating in Alaska. This permit only applies to overnight vessels carrying more than 250 passengers. Geometric mean: The nth root of the product of a series of n numbers computed by taking the logarithm of each number, computing the arithmetic mean of the 252
2012 Ocean Ranger Guidebook 3-7-12 logarithms, and raising the base used to take the logarithms to the arithmetic mean. Glacier Bay: For purposes of the general permit, means all waters inside a line drawn between Point Gustavus at 135º54.927’ W longitude; 58º22.748’ N latitude and Point Carolus at 136º2.535’ W longitude; 58º22.694’ N latitude. Gray Water: Includes discharges from galley, sinks, washbasins, drains, showers and baths. These may be held in large tanks prior to being discharged overboard (State, Fed, regulation permitting). Gray water system: includes discharges from galley, sinks, washbasin drains, showers, and baths, excluding drains and sinks from medical spaces. These may be held in large tanks before being pumped overboard. The handling and discharge of gray water will vary from ship to ship. ICCL: International Council of Cruise Lines, a cruise ship industry association which participates in industry standards and policy development process to promote all measures that foster a safe, secure, healthy cruise ship environment. ICLL: International Convention for Load Lines. IMO: International Maritime Organization; a specialized agency of the United Nations concerned solely with maritime affairs. IMO is responsible for international treaties, conventions, resolutions and codes to improve maritime safety. ISM Code: International Safety Management Code. (Chapter IX of SOLAS) Harmful substance (from 33 CFR 151): Harmful substance means any substance which, if introduced into the sea, is liable to create hazards to human health, harm living resources and marine life, damage amenities, or interfere with other legitimate uses of the sea, and includes any substance subject to control by MARPOL 73/78. Hazardous waste: includes dry cleaning (containing Perchloroethylene, or commonly- called “PERC”) waste, used paints and thinners that contain hazardous substances, silver-bearing photo-processing waste, cleaning solutions and other items that contain hazardous substances. Each vessel may vary in both the type and volumes of hazardous waste generated depending on the technology and processes used aboard. Marine sanitation device: Equipment that is installed on board a vessel, and that is designed to receive, retain, or discharge sewage; and any process to treat sewage on board a vessel. 253
