As a result of some of the tests and checks carried out for Parts Seven &
Eight of these Standards during the BSS examination, your examiner may
conclude that continued use of an appliance, or other gas safety issues, could
place you, your friends or family at risk. In order to allow you to make
an informed decision about the situation he, or she, may issue you with a
BSS Warning Notice.

This warning notice is purely advisory and has no bearing upon your navigation
licence application, unless it is issued in conjunction with the discovery of a
gas leak in the system. If there is a leak this is considered to be immediately
dangerous and the examiner will take action to make the gas system safe by
attaching a tag to the gas system and taping the master valve or by removing
the gas bottles to a safe place.

The navigation authority responsible for the relevant waterway will be informed
of any dangerous boat so that appropriate actions can be considered.
