Drain plugs shall be reinstalled.
N. Refrigeration Units: No preservation required. Belts and pulleys shall be preserved IAW 3. E. above. Doors on
refrigerators inside the watercraft should be blocked and wired open.
O. Electrical Equipment:
(1) Rotating Electrical Equipments: Motor and generators can endure a lengthy period of exposure without
deterioration.  No preservation is required.  Ensure that sealed motors exposed to the elements are
properly sealed.
(2) Switch Boards, Panels, and Controllers: No preservation required. Tie doors on panels and controllers
located within the dehumidified area in an open position. Ensure that sealed controllers on the exterior,

P. Sewage Collecting, Holding and Transfer (CHT) Systems:
(1) CHT Systems with Raw or Fresh Water Flush: Applicable to the Design 3006 Tugs and the Design
1466A LCU's.  While the vessel's power systems are still operational (early on in the preservation
evolution) the system shall be operated IAW posted instructions, that is flushing and pumping the
collecting tank into the holding tank, then flushing the holding tank into a shore sewage receptacle leaving
both the collecting and holding tanks empty and ready for service. Pumps shall be preserved IAW 3. K.
(1) and (2).
(2) CHT Systems with Mineral Oil Flush Medium: Applicable to the Design 264B (Modified) cranes. While
the vessel's power systems are still operational, flush the commode with the oil pressure pump switch off to
relieve the system pressure. Pump the collecting tank into the holding tank. Pump the holding tank to a
shore sewage receptacle leaving both the collecting and holding tanks ready for service. The oil pressure
pump does not require preservation. Sewage pumps shall be preserved IAW 3. K. (1).
(1) Water Sides and Systems: Shall be drained and thoroughly dried with dry compressed air. Drain plugs
