AI Explanation
The correct answer is A. The fire control plan for a vessel is a set of drawings for each deck of the vessel that contains information on the vessel's arrangements, fire suppression systems, and locations of firefighting equipment. This is the standard definition of a fire control plan as required by regulations for commercial vessels. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the contents and format of a fire control plan. The fire control plan is not a set of written descriptions or instructions, but rather a set of visual deck plans that provide the necessary information to respond to a fire emergency.
