As has been previously posted, it is important that a misconception be 
eliminated.  Federal Law does not "trump" State and local laws.  These State 
and local laws cannot relax Federal requirements, but they can add to them, 
that is to say be even more stringent.

I used to think that Fed rules "ruled", but it is not the case.  I wish it 
were, as the State add-ons are done by people who listen to buzz-words and 
don't really investigate the implications of their actions.  Bottom line is, 
bummer.  If the state says that you have to disconnect a line, it is the law 
untill someone changes it.  I hope that someone changes it.  Boaters should 
raise political hell if they can.
