Question 3066 Deck General

The correct answer is A) 5 days. The Coast Guard regulations require that Form 2692 (Notice of Marine Casualty) must be filed within 5 days of a reportable marine casualty incident. This is specified in 46 CFR 4.05-1, which states that written notice of a marine casualty must be given to the Coast Guard within 5 days after the occurrence of the casualty. The other options are incorrect because 3 days (B) and 1 day (D) are not the required reporting timeframe, while 7 days (C) is longer than the 5-day requirement.
