Question 777 Deck General

The correct answer is C) Master or his authorized representative. The Dangerous Cargo Manifest must be signed by the Master of the vessel or their authorized representative. This is because the Master is responsible for the safe transportation and handling of all cargo, including dangerous goods, on their vessel. The Master must ensure the manifest accurately reflects the dangerous cargo being transported and that all required safety precautions are taken. The other answer choices are incorrect because A) a U.S. Coast Guard Marine Inspector is not responsible for signing the Dangerous Cargo Manifest, and B) and D) the shipper or Master alone cannot sign the manifest - it requires the signature of the Master or their authorized agent.
