The correct answer is D) All of the above. According to the regulations for Offshore Supply Vessels (OSVs) in the United States, each OSV must carry the following safety equipment: 1) At least 12 rocket parachute flares for distress signaling. 2) At least one life buoy on each side of the vessel, each fitted with a buoyant life line. 3) One category I 406 MHz satellite Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) for emergency location and rescue.
