It is illegal to discharge oily bilge water into the waters of the United States.
Bilge oil spills must be mopped up and the oil and rags properly disposed of.
Bilge Pumps (Continued)
If oil is present in the bilge, do not use the bilge pump to discharge the waste.
Mop up the waste and dispose of properly.
The two (2) bilge pumps in the RJ/RK are located in the Engine Room as shown here.
Should a bilge pump fail to operate, check the breakers and wiring connections. If the pump operates
but fails to discharge water, inspect for clogs or kinks in the discharge line.
Do not run a bilge pump for an extended period of time in a dry environment. Damage
and/or premature wear to the pump may result.
