Amay be granted by the _ _.
Bcaptain of the port
COCMI in the vessel's home port
Dcommandant of the Coast Guard
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Commandant of the Coast Guard. The reasoning is that the Commandant of the Coast Guard has the authority to grant exemptions or partial exemptions from compliance with the Oil or Hazardous Material Pollution Prevention Regulations. This is based on the regulations prescribed in 33 CFR 155.110, which state that the Commandant may grant such exemptions or partial exemptions. The other options are incorrect because the Captain of the Port or the Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection (OCMI) in the vessel's home port do not have the authority to grant these types of exemptions. That authority is specifically reserved for the Commandant of the Coast Guard.
