A be marked "SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS"
B be located in close proximity to the main control station
C be equipped with battery powered emergency lighting
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) be marked "SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS". The requirement for the locker or space containing the self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) on a MODU (Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit) to be clearly marked is specified in the US Coast Guard regulations. This ensures that the SCBA equipment can be easily identified and accessed in an emergency situation. The other options, while potentially good practices, are not explicitly required by the regulations.
