🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for flammable and combustible materials storage • Construction and protection standards for lockers and small compartments • Purpose of regulations: fire prevention and containment on board

💭 Think About

• Which choice directly addresses the primary hazard associated with lamps, paint, and oil? (think: what is most dangerous about them) • Do the options describe how the locker is built, where it is located, or how it is used? Which of those does 46 CFR usually focus on for these lockers? • Which option would best limit fire spread if the contents ignited inside the locker?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which answers focus on fire-resistant construction rather than convenience or stowage practice • Ask: Does 46 CFR usually require these lockers to be noncombustible or metal-lined? Verify that idea in the relevant subpart if possible. • Eliminate any choices that talk more about location or cargo movement than about the locker’s structural fire safety.
