[Amended 5-11-2021 by L.L. No. 7-2021]
B. Securing of marine sanitation devices; use of pump-out station.
(1)
Any marine sanitation device on board a vessel being operated
in waters designated as a "vessel waste no-discharge zone" must be
secured to prevent any discharges to such waters. In accordance with
federal regulations, the marine sanitation device shall be secured
by closing the seacock and padlocking, using heavy nonresealable tape,
using a nonreleasable wire-tie, removing the seacock handle or locking
the door to the "head" while such vessel is being operated upon waters
within vessel waste no-discharge zones. Use of a padlock, heavy nonresealable
tape, wire-tie, or the removal of the valve handle are adequate methods
of securing the device. The method chosen shall be one that presents
a physical barrier to the use of the valve.
(2)
If a marine sanitation device on a vessel provides a means of
discharging sewage directly to the water, the discharge valve must
be secured in a readily visible manner and closed position while the
vessel is being operated in a vessel waste no-discharge zone.
(3)
The provisions requiring marine sanitation devices to be secured
and rendered inoperable in vessel waste no-discharge zones shall not
apply while the wastes from the marine sanitation device are being
lawfully disposed of in an approved marine sanitation device pump-out
or dump station, or pump-out boat located within a vessel waste no-discharge
zone.
C. Inspections. Any vessel being operated upon a water body of the Village
of Sag Harbor that has been designated as a vessel waste no-discharge
zone may be boarded and inspected by the Village Harbor Master, police
officer or any other lawfully designated agents acting pursuant to
their special duties for the purposes of determining whether such
vessel is being operated in compliance with this chapter.
D. The Village Board shall establish procedures for the enforcement
of Village "No-Discharge Zones," which shall include the regulation
of grey water discharge, and shall also establish a schedule for vessel
inspections to confirm compliance with the No-Discharge Zone.

No. 7-2021]

Trustees from issuing special permits for aquatic events or vessel
races under proper supervision in limited areas and for limited periods
