Where will you find the procedures for the reporting of oil discharge into the water?

AThe vessel's Certificate of Inspection
BThe vessel's Oil Transfer Procedures
CThe vessel's Oil Record Book
DThe vessel's International Oil Pollution Prevention Certificate
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) The vessel's Oil Transfer Procedures. The procedures for reporting oil discharge into the water are typically found in the vessel's Oil Transfer Procedures, as this document outlines the specific steps and protocols to be followed when transferring oil, including the reporting requirements in the event of a spill or discharge. The other options are incorrect because they do not directly contain the reporting procedures. The Certificate of Inspection (A) and the International Oil Pollution Prevention Certificate (D) are documents that certify the vessel's compliance with regulations, but do not specify the reporting procedures. The Oil Record Book (C) is used to record oil operations, but does not outline the reporting requirements.
