(d) MARSEC Level 3. In addition to the security measures for MARSEC Level 1 and MARSEC Level 2, at MARSEC Level 3, the OCS facility owner or operator must ensure the implementation of additional security measures, as specified for MARSEC Level 3 in the approved FSP. These additional security measures may include: (1) Checking all OCS facility stores or industrial supplies more extensively; (2) Restricting or suspending delivery of stores or industrial supplies; or (3) Refusing to accept stores or industrial supplies on board.
