AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) galleys. Galleys are not required for the segregation of enclosed spaces where sources of vapor ignition are normally present from cargo tanks on vessels constructed after 1970 and carrying grades A, B, C or D cargoes. The regulations require the use of cofferdams, pump rooms, or tanks used to carry liquids having a flash point of 150°F or above to provide the necessary segregation and isolation between these hazardous areas and the cargo tanks. Galleys, being a non-hazardous space, are not mandated for this specific safety requirement.
