A It be installed to the satisfaction of the cognizant OCMI
B Safety and/or relief valves settings be checked at two and one half times normal operating pressures.
C It be operated at one and one half times normal operating pressure for ten minutes.
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) It be installed to the satisfaction of the cognizant OCMI (Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection). The small passenger vessel regulations require that any hydraulic accumulator or other unfired pressure vessel be installed in a manner that is satisfactory to the cognizant OCMI. This ensures that the installation meets safety standards and does not pose a risk to the vessel or its passengers. The other answer choices, while potentially relevant to pressure vessel requirements, are not specifically mandated by the small passenger vessel regulations. The regulations focus on the installation and oversight by the OCMI, rather than specific pressure testing or operating requirements.
