Aapply to _ .
Bcargo transfer systems
Ccondensate pumps
Dinduced draft fans
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) induced draft fans. The emergency shutdown requirements of Pollution Prevention Regulations apply to induced draft fans, which are used to draw air through the exhaust system. This is because induced draft fans can be a potential source of ignition during cargo transfer operations, and shutting them down in an emergency helps prevent the risk of fire or explosion. The other options are incorrect because cargo transfer systems, condensate pumps, and other equipment are not directly covered by the emergency shutdown requirements of the Pollution Prevention Regulations. The regulations specifically target induced draft fans as a critical component to be shut down in an emergency to mitigate the risk of pollution incidents.
