Iow, you're saying that in Canada there is no "3 mile limit" in coastal

and holding tanks may be dumped anywhere in coastal Canadian waters except in
those areas specifically designated "no discharge?"


Kinda, I think...What I'm saying is that the "Type I" Type II" and "Type III"
are purely American designations - they have no legal definition in Canada (or
other parts of the world).

Actually, Type I and II MSDs are clearly defined in ISO rules, which are
the regs for most of the world--and US regs conform to ISO rules...in
fact are the basis for many ISO rules that US rules pre-date. So while
"Type I and II MSD" may not have any meaning in Canada, they most
definitely do in most other parts of the world that have marine
sanitation regs.
