70% to passThe Master or person in charge of a MODU is required to submit a casualty report of an intentional grounding when it _______________.
A
will last longer than 48 hours
B
will last longer than 24 hours
C
creates a hazard to the vessel
D
occurs in international waters
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) creates a hazard to the vessel. The requirement to submit a casualty report for an intentional grounding is based on the Coast Guard regulations, which state that a report must be submitted if the grounding creates a hazard to the vessel. The length of time the grounding lasts or whether it occurs in international waters are not the determining factors for this reporting requirement. The other options (A, B, and D) are incorrect because they do not align with the actual regulation that requires a casualty report for an intentional grounding.
