🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR Part 35 – especially sections on boilers, fuel oil, and tankships • 46 CFR Part 59 – especially sections on repairs to boilers and pressure vessels • The meaning of “OCMI” (Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection) and when notification is required

💭 Think About

• For each choice (A, B, C), ask: Does this exact wording match what is written in the CFR, or is something slightly different? • Consider whether all three statements are actually found in the cited parts, or if one of them sounds like a plausible rule but is not stated that way in the regulations. • Think about which statement involves an emergency situation versus normal operating or fueling procedures and how that might affect notification or documentation requirements.

✅ Before You Answer

• Look up 46 CFR Part 59 for specific language on emergency repairs to boilers and unfired pressure vessels and whether notification to the OCMI is mentioned. • Check 46 CFR Part 35, Subpart 35.25 or related sections about fuel oil on tankships, especially any required flash point limits. • Verify in 46 CFR Part 35 whether there is a requirement for a one gallon sample of each load of fuel oil to be sealed and kept until that fuel is exhausted, or if the regulation specifies a different amount, handling, or time period.
