On the 31st day following the adoption of rules and regulations pursuant to section 5 of this act, no owner or operator of a refinery, storage, transfer terminal, or pipeline facility, or a vessel while in the waters of the State, shall transfer, or authorize or allow to be transferred any hazardous liquid between any such facility and a vessel, or among two or more vessels, unless, as prescribed by the department, either a boom or other containment device is in place as hereinafter provided, or the containment device is available, along with trained personnel, at the site of transfer operations on a stand-by basis for immediate deployment in the event of a discharge, spill or release during the transfer.

    In the case of (1) a transfer of a hazardous liquid between a land-based facility and a vessel, or between two or more vessels at a facility, the owner or operator of the facility shall be responsible for the containment device, trained personnel, or other containment or mitigation measures required by the department, or (2) a vessel-to-vessel transfer occurring away from a land-based facility, the owner or operator of each of the vessels involved shall be responsible therefor.
