Information on search and rescue procedures and special, local communications used in Mexican waters will be found in the _______________.

A International Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue Manual
B World Port Index
C Sailing Directions (Planning Guides)
D International Code of Signals (Pub 102
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) International Code of Signals (Pub 102). The International Code of Signals (Pub 102) contains information on special, local communications and procedures used in international waters, including Mexican waters. This publication provides standardized communication methods and signals for search and rescue operations that are applicable across different countries' territorial waters. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not specifically address the communication and procedural information needed for operations in Mexican waters. The International Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue Manual, the World Port Index, and the Sailing Directions (Planning Guides) do not contain the same level of detail on local communications and procedures used in different countries' maritime regions.
