GL: Y valve lockout

[Jim Boyd]

Are you referring to Black water only or are you including gray water as
well?

You do not have to remove the Y-valve, as long as you remove A hose in the
path going to the through hull. The intent on the law is to make sure
something in the path is removed so you can't discharge just by unlocking a
valve. What you remove is up to you. It can be the Y valve, it can be a
hose.

The actual wording of the regulation in both NY and Vermont is:

    "Any holding tank designed so as to provide for an optional means 
     of discharge to the waters on which the craft is operating shall 
     have the discharge openings sealed shut and any discharge lines, 
     pipes or hoses shall be removed or disconnected and stored while 
     operating on the waters of said lake, its tributaries or outlets."
