Light Lists for coastal waters are _______________.

A published every year and require no corrections
B published every five years and require no correction
C published every second year and must be corrected
D accurate thru NM number on title page and must be corrected
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) accurate thru NM number on title page and must be corrected. Light Lists for coastal waters are published by the U.S. Coast Guard and provide important information about navigational lights, buoys, and other aids to navigation. These lists are accurate up to the NM (Notice to Mariners) number printed on the title page, and mariners are required to make corrections to the Light List based on the latest NM updates. This ensures the information is current and reliable for safe navigation. The other answer choices are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the publication schedule and correction requirements for the Light Lists.
