70% to pass

You are the person in charge of a vessel involved in a marine casualty. You must notify the nearest Coast Guard Marine Inspection Office if the property damage is over _______________.

A $ 1,500
B $10,000
C $25,000
D $50,000
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) $25,000. According to the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 46, Section 4.05-1, the master, person in charge, or owner of a vessel involved in a marine casualty must notify the nearest Coast Guard Marine Inspection Office when the casualty results in property damage exceeding $25,000. This regulation ensures that the Coast Guard is informed of significant marine incidents for investigation and safety purposes. The other answer choices are incorrect because $1,500 (option A) is too low, $10,000 (option B) is also below the $25,000 threshold, and $50,000 (option D) is higher than the required notification amount.
