Question 616 Deck Safety

The correct answer is D) form CG-2692. The CG-2692 form, also known as the "Report of Marine Accident, Injury or Death," is the required form that must be submitted to the United States Coast Guard when a vessel has grounded. This form is used to report various marine incidents, including groundings, collisions, and other accidents. The regulations governing the reporting of marine incidents are found in 46 CFR 4.05-1, which outlines the requirement to submit the CG-2692 form. The other options are incorrect because they do not correspond to the specific form required for reporting a grounding incident. Form CG-1157 is used for reporting certain security incidents, form CG-2962 is used for reporting vessel defects, and form CG-1149 is used for reporting certain pollution incidents.
