Q

assume Quiet State

A

There will be certain engineering restrictions laid out in the Ship’s Quiet Running Bill. This will inform the Engineering Dept. to switch to the quietest engine/motor available, and dependant on the quiet state, switch off some services.

The MCR will report to you when they’ve made their engineering changes (can take up to 30 minutes) and the POOW will confirm that signs have been switched. Everyone off-watch goes to their rack and stays there
