AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) Make sure the raked ends of the barge are completely dry and mopped. This is not a safety precaution to be observed during the loading of LFG (Liquefied Flammable Gas). The raked ends of the barge do not need to be completely dry and mopped, as this is not a critical safety factor for LFG loading operations. The other options, A, C, and D, are all important safety precautions that should be observed to ensure the safe loading of LFG, such as being aware of nearby work, reporting any cargo leakage, and ensuring the hoses are in good condition.
