AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) 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 Liquefied Gas. The rake ends of the barge do not need to be dry and mopped, as this does not directly impact the safe loading of the liquefied gas. The other answer choices, B) Be on the lookout for work being accomplished ashore in the vicinity of the barges, C) Report any leakage of cargo, and D) Ascertain that the hoses to be used are in good order, are all important safety precautions that should be observed during the loading of Liquefied Gas to ensure the safe handling of the cargo.
