Question 123Safety & Environmental - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is B) draw a single line through the wrong entry and initial it. The Oil Record Book is a legal document that must be properly maintained according to MARPOL regulations. Drawing a single line through the wrong entry and initialing it is the proper way to correct a mistake, as it preserves the original entry and clearly indicates the correction. This maintains the integrity of the record and provides an audit trail. The other options are incorrect because: A) simply notifying the officer does not properly document the correction; C) erasing the entry would alter the original record; and D) blacking out the entry would obscure the original information, which is not permitted.
