Q

In what location MUST a duplicate fire control plan be located?

🔍 Key Concepts

• SOLAS requirements for fire control plans and their accessibility to shore-based firefighters and port authorities • The meaning of a plan being "readily available" from outside the ship" • Typical locations that allow emergency responders to find ship information before entering the vessel

💭 Think About

• If firefighters are coming on board for the first time, where should they be able to find a fire control plan without having to go deep inside the vessel? • Which of these locations is most likely to be used as a primary access / muster area for shore-based emergency services? • Which location would still be accessible even if there is a major fire in accommodation or machinery spaces?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which location is accessible from the open deck or shore early in an emergency • Check SOLAS / fire safety guidance on having a duplicate plan outside the deckhouse/accommodation • Eliminate locations that require going inside and deep into the ship before getting critical fire information
