Question 2690 Deck General

The correct answer is D) All of the above. The towing vessel fire protection regulations allow a towing vessel to carry portable fuel systems on board in the following cases: 1) When the portable fuel systems are permanently attached to portable equipment such as bilge and fire pumps. 2) When the portable fuel systems are used for outboard engines. 3) If the portable fuel tanks used for portable equipment meet published safety standards. The regulations permit the use of portable fuel systems in these specific situations to provide flexibility and accommodate the operational needs of towing vessels, as long as the safety standards are met.
