Control Stations
Control stations are those spaces in which the unit’s radio or main navigating equipment or the emergency source of power is located or where the fire recording or fire control equipment or the dynamic positioning control system is centralized or where a fire-extinguishing system serving various locations is situated. In the case of column stabilized units a centralized ballast control station is a “control station”. However, for purposes of the application of chapter 9, the space where the emergency source of power is located is not considered as being a control station.
