CFire Control Plan; permanently stored in a prominently marked weather tight enclosure outside the deck house.
DNo document required.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) Fire Control Plan; permanently stored in a prominently marked weather tight enclosure outside the deck house. This is the correct answer because the Fire Control Plan provides the necessary information and instructions for shore side firefighters to effectively combat a fire on board a vessel. The plan is required to be permanently stored in a weather tight enclosure outside the deck house, making it readily accessible to shore side firefighters in the event of an emergency. Neither the International Oil Pollution Prevention Certificate, the Minimum Safe Manning Certificate, nor any other document is required for this purpose.
