70% to passUnder federal regulations, what minimum level of Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) constitutes a violation of the laws prohibiting Boating Under the Influence of Alcohol (BUI) on commercial vessels?
A
.18% BAC
B
.06% BAC
C
.10% BAC
D
.04% BAC
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) .04% BAC. Under federal regulations, the minimum level of Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) that constitutes a violation of the laws prohibiting Boating Under the Influence of Alcohol (BUI) on commercial vessels is .04% BAC. This is specified in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 46, Section 16.302, which states that the prohibited alcohol concentration level for commercial vessel operators is .04% BAC or higher. The other options are incorrect because .18% BAC is too high, .06% BAC is below the legal limit, and .10% BAC is the limit for recreational boaters, not commercial vessel operators.
