Question 2941 Deck General

70% to pass

Each person on the rig has a designated area to proceed to in the event of a fire. This assignment is shown clearly on which of the following documents?

A fire fighting plan
B Muster List ("Station Bill")
C shipping articles
D Certificate of Inspection
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) Muster List ("Station Bill"). The Muster List, also known as the Station Bill, is the document that clearly designates the assigned emergency stations and duties for each person on board a vessel. This includes the specific area each person should proceed to in the event of a fire or other emergency. The Muster List is a required document on all U.S. Coast Guard inspected vessels to ensure there is a clear plan in place for emergency response. The other options are incorrect because: A) the Fire Fighting Plan outlines firefighting procedures and equipment, but does not assign specific emergency stations; C) the Shipping Articles is a contract between the crew and the vessel, and does not contain emergency assignments; and D) the Certificate of Inspection is a document issued by the Coast Guard, but does not detail the vessel's emergency response plan.
