70% to passWhich of the following technologies would be associated with a Type III marine sanitation device?
ABiological treatment plant
BChemical treatment plant
CSewage holding tank
DDirect overboard sewage discharge
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) Sewage holding tank. A Type III marine sanitation device is required to have a sewage holding tank that stores waste until it can be properly disposed of, rather than discharging it directly overboard. This is in compliance with U.S. Coast Guard regulations that prohibit the direct overboard discharge of sewage in certain waters. The other options, such as biological or chemical treatment plants, are not associated with the basic holding tank design of a Type III system.
