70% to pass

Every injury aboard a commercial fishing industry vessel must be reported to the _______________.

A National Fisheries Service
B Coast Guard
C vessel owner or owner's agent
D Occupational Safety and Health Administration
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) vessel owner or owner's agent. According to the regulations governing commercial fishing industry vessels, every injury aboard such a vessel must be reported to the vessel owner or the owner's agent. This is because the vessel owner is responsible for ensuring the safety and well-being of the crew, and the owner needs to be informed of any incidents that occur on board. The other options, such as reporting to the National Fisheries Service, the Coast Guard, or OSHA, are not the correct entities for this type of incident reporting requirement.
