70% to pass

Where must the Master or person in charge of a MODU record the date of each test of emergency lighting and power systems and the condition and performance of the equipment?

A In the Operations Manual
B On the Muster List ("Station Bill")
C On the Certificate of Inspection
D In either the official or unofficial log
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) In either the official or unofficial log. The regulations require the master or person in charge of a mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU) to record the date of each test of emergency lighting and power systems, as well as the condition and performance of the equipment, in either the official log or the unofficial log of the vessel. This is a specific requirement outlined in the applicable Coast Guard regulations for MODUs. The other options are incorrect because the Operations Manual, Muster List, and Certificate of Inspection do not serve as the designated location for recording this information, as per the regulations.
