70% to passDeck foam systems, designed to protect cargo areas on tank vessels built after January 1, 1975, must have a supply of foam-producing material to operate the system at its designed rate of foam production for _______________.
The correct answer is B) 20 minutes without recharging. The regulations for deck foam systems on tank vessels built after January 1, 1975 require that the system have a supply of foam-producing material to operate at its designed rate of foam production for at least 20 minutes without recharging. This is specified in the applicable regulations, which ensure that the deck foam system can provide adequate fire protection for the cargo areas during an emergency. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the 20-minute requirement outlined in the regulations. Options A, C, and D specify different time periods that do not align with the regulatory standard.
