AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) U.S. Coast Guard. Injuries resulting in loss of life or incapacitation aboard vessels must be reported to the U.S. Coast Guard. This is a requirement under U.S. federal regulations, specifically 46 CFR 4.05-1, which mandates the reporting of such incidents to the Coast Guard. The other options (B, C, and D) are not the correct regulatory bodies for reporting these types of maritime incidents, as they are not the primary federal agency responsible for overseeing vessel safety and investigating marine casualties.
