70% to pass

Remote controls for quick-closing shut off valves are required in how many location(s)?

A 1
B 2
C 3
D 4
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) 2 locations. According to the regulations for the US Coast Guard Captain's License Examinations, remote controls for quick-closing shut off valves are required in two locations: the engine room and the weather deck. This is to ensure that the fuel supply can be quickly shut off from a safe location in case of an emergency, such as a fire. The other answer choices (A, C, and D) are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the regulatory requirement of 2 remote control locations.
