AI Explanation

A is the correct answer. According to the Coast Guard Pollution Prevention Regulations, a person must hold a valid Coast Guard-issued Captain's License to operate a vessel that is required to have a Certificate of Inspection (COI). This license, known as a Merchant Mariner Credential (MMC), is required for the safe operation of vessels that carry passengers or cargo for hire. The regulations stipulate that a valid MMC is necessary to legally operate these types of commercial vessels. The other answer choices (B, C, D) do not accurately reflect the Coast Guard's licensing requirements for operating vessels under their pollution prevention regulations.
