D

AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 10%. According to the US Coast Guard regulations, each pressure gage used in an oil transfer operation must be accurate to within 10% of the actual pressure. This requirement is specified in 33 CFR 156.170(c)(1), which states that "each pressure gage must have an accuracy within 10 percent of the actual pressure". The other options, such as 1%, 3%, or 5% accuracy, are more stringent requirements that do not align with the Coast Guard's regulations for oil transfer operations.
