AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) The designated person in charge. During oil transfer operations, the designated person in charge is responsible for ensuring that the posted transfer procedures are followed. This is because the person in charge is the one who has the overall responsibility for the safe conduct of the transfer operation, as per US Coast Guard regulations. The other options, such as the oiler, tankerman, or senior able seaman, may have specific duties during the transfer, but the overall responsibility lies with the designated person in charge.
