What act places limitations on the discharge of garbage from vessels?

The Clean Water Act
The Safe Drinking Water Act
The Marine Protection Act
The act to prevent pollution from ships

The correct answer is: The act to prevent pollution from ships

Option A, the Clean Water Act, regulates discharges of pollutants into the nation's navigable waters, but it does not specifically address garbage from vessels. Option B, the Safe Drinking Water Act, focuses on protecting public drinking water sources but does not pertain to vessel discharge. Option C, the Marine Protection Act, provides resources for protecting marine life and the environment, but does not specifically address garbage discharge from vessels. The correct answer, option D, also known as the Act to Prevent Pollution from Ships, was developed to minimize environmental damage from vessel discharge, including regulations for discharging garbage. Therefore, the other options are incorrect because they do not directly relate to regulating the discharge of garbage from vessels.
