In the case of a casualty involving a MODU, the Master, owner, agent or person in charge shall make the records required by regulation available upon request to _______________.

A anyone involved in the casualty
B the local Captain of the Port
C any Coast Guard official authorized to investigate the casualty
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) any Coast Guard official authorized to investigate the casualty. In the case of a casualty involving a mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU), the regulations require the master, owner, agent, or person in charge to make the records required by regulation available upon request to any Coast Guard official authorized to investigate the casualty. This is in accordance with the applicable Coast Guard regulations that govern the reporting and investigation of such incidents. The other options are incorrect because A) anyone involved in the casualty is too broad, and B) the local Captain of the Port, while a Coast Guard official, may not necessarily be the one authorized to investigate the specific casualty.
