70% to pass

To meet the regulations governing manning requirements outside U.S. jurisdiction, a person holding a foreign credential can serve in any of the following positions EXCEPT which of the following?

A ballast control operator
B barge supervisor
C able seaman
D offshore installation manager
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) offshore installation manager. The regulations governing manning requirements outside U.S. jurisdiction allow a person holding a foreign credential to serve in positions such as ballast control operator, barge supervisor, and able seaman. However, the offshore installation manager position is not included in this provision and would require a U.S. Coast Guard-issued credential or license. The other answer choices (A, B, and C) are positions that can be filled by a person holding a foreign credential, as long as the credential meets the applicable requirements. The offshore installation manager position, on the other hand, is a more specialized role that falls outside the scope of the foreign credential allowance.
