Machine-translated summary — verify against original

On August 18, 2023, the passenger ship 'Kanoko' operated by Satsumasendai City, with 9 passengers onboard, was sailing off Kurose near Nakanoshima, Satsumasendai City, when a fire broke out from the port-side engine, causing the vessel to become inoperable. No injuries were reported. On September 8 and November 22, 2023, the Kyushu Transport Bureau's operational labor supervisor conducted audits under the Maritime Transportation Law, which revealed violations of safety management regulations, including that the vessel operator had not conducted safety assessments related to operational and crew deployment plans. On March 19, 2024, the bureau provided guidance to the operator, including that the vessel operator must, based on Article 21 of the safety management regulations, consider safety aspects such as vessel performance, port conditions, traffic, and natural phenomena when creating or revising operational or deployment plans.
