Nautical Term: NTVRP
Definition of NTVRP
A Non-Tank Vessel Response Plan (NTVRP)) is a comprehensive document outlining the procedures and measures to be taken by the crew of a non-tank vessel in the event of an oil or chemical spill. For instance, during a voyage from Rotterdam to Hamburg, the crew of a non-tank vessel identified a potential oil spill from a nearby tanker. The crew immediately implemented the procedures outlined in their NTVRP, contacting the appropriate authorities, and deploying containment booms to minimize the impact of the oil spill on the marine environment and local communities.
