70% to pass

If you are guilty of failure to properly perform your duties as Master of Uninspected Towing Vessels, which of the following actions may NOT be taken?

A Issuance of a letter of warning
B A fine placed against your Merchant Mariner Credential
C Revocation of your Merchant Mariner Credential
D Suspension of your Merchant Mariner Credential
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) A fine placed against your Merchant Mariner Credential. According to the regulations governing Merchant Mariner Credentials, the Coast Guard has the authority to issue letters of warning, suspend, or revoke a credential for failure to properly perform duties as the Master of Uninspected Towing Vessels. However, the Coast Guard does not have the authority to place a direct fine against the credential itself. Fines are typically issued as a separate administrative action, not as a direct penalty against the Merchant Mariner Credential. The other options, A, C, and D, are actions the Coast Guard can take in response to such misconduct.
