AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) The designated person-in-charge. According to the Pollution Prevention Regulations in 33 CFR, the designated person-in-charge is responsible for making the final decision on when an oil transfer may begin. This person is designated by the facility or vessel owner/operator and is required to be present and in charge of the oil transfer operation. The other options are incorrect because the captain of the port, senior deck officer, and local Coast Guard representatives do not have the specific authority to make this decision under the regulations.
