70% to pass

The locker or space containing the self-contained breathing apparatus must be _______________.

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

The correct answer is C) marked "SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS". According to the regulations, the locker or space containing the self-contained breathing apparatus must be clearly marked with the label "SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS" to ensure it is easily identified in an emergency. This requirement is in place to provide clear visual indication of the location of this critical safety equipment. The other options are incorrect because they do not specifically address the marking requirements for the self-contained breathing apparatus storage location. While the equipment may be located near the bridge (A) and have emergency lighting (B), these are not the primary regulatory requirements for the storage area.
