Which is NOT a safety precaution to be observed during the loading of LFG?

A Report any leakage of cargo.
B Be on the lookout for work being accomplished ashore in the vicinity of the barges.
C Make sure the rake ends of the barge are completely dry and mopped.
D Ascertain that the hoses to be used are in good order.
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) Make sure the rake ends of the barge are completely dry and mopped. This is not a safety precaution to be observed during the loading of LFG (Liquefied Flammable Gas). The rake ends of the barge do not need to be completely dry and mopped, as this is not a relevant safety consideration for the loading of LFG. The other answer choices, such as reporting any leakage of cargo, being on the lookout for nearby work, and ensuring the hoses are in good order, are all important safety precautions that should be observed during the loading process.
