AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) local MSO/COTPs/MIO's. U.S. flag ships are required to maintain an Oil Record Book, which documents the disposal of oil and oily waste. These Oil Record Books are obtained from the local Marine Safety Office (MSO), Captain of the Port (COTP), or Marine Inspection Office (MIO), as they are the authorities responsible for overseeing the implementation of oil pollution prevention regulations for U.S. flag vessels. The Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Customs Agency, and local courthouses are not the correct sources for obtaining the Oil Record Book.
