screw-down valve capable of being operated from above the bulkhead deck, the valve chest being secured
inside the forepeak to the collision bulkhead.

Solas Surveys and certificates
Regulation 6
Inspection and survey

(a) The inspection and survey of ships, so far as regards the enforcement of the provisions of the present
regulations and the granting of exemptions therefrom, shall be carried out by officers of the Administration.
The Administration may, however, entrust the inspections and surveys either to surveyors nominated for
the purpose or to organizations recognized by it.

(b) An Administration nominating surveyors or recognizing organizations to conduct inspections and
surveys as set forth in paragraph (a) shall as a minimum empower any nominated surveyor or recognized
organization to:
(i) require repairs to a ship;
(ii) carry out inspections and surveys if requested by the appropriate authorities of a port State. •
The Administration shall notify the Organization of the specific responsibilities and conditions of the
authority delegated to nominated surveyors or recognized organizations.1'

(c) When a nominated surveyor or recognized organization determines that the condition of the ship or
its equipment does not correspond substantially with the particulars of the certificate or is such that the ship
is not fit to proceed to sea without danger to the ship, or persons on board, such surveyor or organization
shall immediately ensure that corrective action is taken and shall in due course notify the Administration. If
such corrective action is not taken the relevant certificate should be withdrawn and the Administration
shall be notified immediately; and, if the ship is in the port of another Party, the appropriate authorities of
the port State shall also be notified immediately. When an officer of the Administration, a nominated
surveyor or a recognized organization has notified the appropriate authorities of the port State, the
Government of the port State concerned shall give such officer, surveyor or organization any necessary
assistance to carry out their obligations under this regulation. When applicable, the Government of the port
State concerned shall ensure that the ship shall not sail until it can proceed to sea, or leave port for the
purpose of proceeding to the appropriate repair yard, without danger to the ship or persons on board.

(d) In every case, the Administration shall fully guarantee the completeness and efficiency of the
inspection and survey, and shall undertake to ensure the necessary arrangements to satisfy this obligation.
