Question 1544 Deck General

The correct answer is D) cargo transfer systems. The emergency shutdown requirements of U.S. regulations apply to cargo transfer systems on vessels. These regulations require that cargo transfer operations have an emergency shutdown system that can quickly stop the flow of cargo in the event of an emergency, such as a spill or fire. This is a critical safety feature to minimize the potential for environmental damage or harm to personnel. The other options, such as air compressors, induced draft fans, and condensate pumps, are not directly subject to the emergency shutdown requirements, as they are not directly involved in cargo transfer operations.
