GL: Lake Champlain plumbing requirements

[Ralph Yost (home)]

Dennis:
I am curious to know and understand how physical REMOVAL of the pipes is the 
ONLY accepted method too prevent the POTENTIAL for overboard discharge. It 
seems to me that other measures could be taken and viewed as acceptable, 
such as wiring the valvles in proper position and remove the fuse or tape 
the breaker OFF for the macerator pump, or perhaps remove the power wire to 
the pump.
If the macerator pump is sufficiently disabled, that would prevent pumping 
the holding tank overboard.

thanks
R.

 The regulations require that the POTENTIAL for overboard discharge be 
removed.
