AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 59°Fahrenheit or less. In the commercial fishing industry, "cold water" is defined as water where the monthly mean low water temperature is normally 59°Fahrenheit or less. This definition is based on regulations and standards set by the US Coast Guard for commercial fishing vessel safety and operations. The other answer choices (A, B, and C) are incorrect because they describe water temperatures that are colder than the 59°F threshold typically used to define "cold water" in the commercial fishing context.
