At the time a pilotage operation is delayed for the term of over 30 minutes of the scheduled time due to a fault of a vessel a pilot of the Arkhangelsk Branch can be recalled from the vessel and a request is withdrawn. The captain of the vessel (or a person, who replaces him) must sign a pilot’s bill for a groundless call.
