AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) the person designated as "person in charge". This is because the regulations require that the "person in charge" of the transfer operation on a tanker or tank barge must supervise functions such as connecting, disconnecting, and topping off. The "person in charge" is specifically designated and responsible for overseeing the safe conduct of the transfer operation, whereas the other options (B, C, and D) do not have this specific responsibility under the regulations.
