If the activity or condition is not discontinued or corrected as directed by the Master within such time period and in such manner as shall be acceptable to the Master, the Master may issue a written notice to the COR with a copy to the MCMC; such notice may be the basis of removal from the vessel as expeditiously as possible of the employee(s) responsible for the failure to comply with the Master's instructions.
