 A “filled compartment, untrimmed" is a compartment which is filled to the maximum extent possible in way of the hatch opening but which has been granted a dispensation from trimming outside the periphery of the hatch opening either by the provisions of regulation VI/3(c) for all ships, or by MSC/Circ.323 on the dispensation from trimming under-deck voids in filled cargo holds of specially suitable ships. For other information applying to such compartments, refer to guideline No.2.
