       (6)A vessel must have at least 2 pumps servicing the livestock water distribution system.
       (7)These pumps and the supply systems to which they connect must not be configured for any purpose other than servicing the livestock water distribution system.
       (8)At least 1 of the pumps must be:
(a) located outside the space occupied by the main source of power; and
