Question 1817 Deck General

70% to pass

When a vessel is not in compliance with its Certificate of Inspection, which certificate may be issued to allow its movement to a repair facility? (small passenger vessel regulations)

A Temporary Certificate of Inspection
B Application for Inspection
C Permit to Proceed
D Change of Employment
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) Permit to Proceed. When a vessel is not in compliance with its Certificate of Inspection, the Coast Guard may issue a Permit to Proceed to allow the vessel to move to a repair facility. This permit is issued under the authority of 46 CFR 175.210, which allows the Coast Guard to grant permission for a vessel to proceed to another port for necessary repairs if the vessel is not in full compliance with regulations. The other options are incorrect because: A) Temporary Certificate of Inspection is a different document issued when a vessel meets requirements for a limited period, B) Application for Inspection is the initial process to obtain a Certificate of Inspection, and D) Change of Employment does not address the issue of a vessel being out of compliance.
