Question 53 ONC03 - Master LT 500-1600 GRT

The Correct Answer is B **Why option B ("On the muster list") is correct:** The muster list (or Station Bill) is a legally required document detailing the emergency duties and assigned stations for every person aboard the vessel. It specifically lists each crewmember's assigned emergency station, including their specific tasks during drills and actual emergencies such as firefighting, abandoning ship, or medical response. Therefore, a crewmember's assigned firefighting station is definitively listed on the muster list. **Why the other options are incorrect:** * **A) On the Certificate of Inspection:** The Certificate of Inspection (COI) is a regulatory document issued by the Coast Guard. It lists details about the vessel's operations, manning requirements, safety equipment, and structural limitations, but it does not list individual crewmembers' emergency duties or specific station assignments. * **C) In the shipping articles:** Shipping Articles (or Crew Agreements) are contracts between the vessel owner and the crew detailing wages, duration of employment, and general duties. While they confirm who is employed, they do not specify detailed emergency assignments like a firefighting station. * **D) On the firefighting plan:** The firefighting plan (or Fire Control Plan) is a diagrammatic blueprint of the vessel showing the location of fire detection systems, controls, firefighting appliances (hoses, extinguishers), and ventilation systems. While essential for fighting a fire, it shows the **equipment and structure**, not the specific personnel assignments. The personnel assignments are referenced in the muster list.
