Question 780 Deck General

70% to pass

You have loaded dangerous cargo on your vessel and must fill out a Dangerous Cargo Manifest. In which publication would you find the requirements to complete this form?

A 33 CFR - Navigation and Navigable Waters
B IMCO - Intergovernmental Maritime Consultative Organization
C IMDG - International Maritime Dangerous Goods
D 46 CFR - Shipping
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) 46 CFR - Shipping. The requirements for completing a Dangerous Cargo Manifest are found in 46 CFR - Shipping, specifically in the regulations governing the carriage of dangerous cargo on vessels. 46 CFR outlines the specific information that must be included on the Dangerous Cargo Manifest, such as the proper shipping name, UN number, hazard class, and quantity of the dangerous goods being transported. The other options are incorrect because they do not directly address the requirements for completing a Dangerous Cargo Manifest. 33 CFR covers navigation and navigable waters, IMCO is an outdated organization, and IMDG covers international regulations for the transport of dangerous goods, but does not specifically address the US requirements for the Dangerous Cargo Manifest.
