Question 2643 Deck General
70% to passWhat does the term, "cargo tank length", as used in part 157 of the Pollution Regulations, mean?
The correct answer is A) length from the forward bulkhead of the forwardmost cargo tanks to the after bulkhead of the aftermost cargo tanks. This is the correct answer because the term "cargo tank length" as used in Part 157 of the Pollution Regulations refers to the overall length of the cargo tank spaces, measured from the forward bulkhead of the forwardmost tank to the after bulkhead of the aftermost tank. This overall length is a critical measurement for understanding the vessel's cargo capacity and compliance with pollution prevention regulations. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the regulatory definition of "cargo tank length" in this context. Options B, C, and D refer to different cargo tank dimensions or measurements, but do not capture the full length of the cargo tank spaces as required by the regulations.
