Question 1151Deck General70% to pass
If your JP-5 barge has operated in salt water for less than 1 month in the 12 month period since it was last dry-docked, when is it required to be hauled out again?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 60 months since last dry-docking.
According to 46 CFR 42.09-10(a), if a barge has operated in salt water for less than 1 month in the 12 month period since it was last dry-docked, it is required to be hauled out again within 60 months of the last dry-docking. This regulation applies to barges that have limited exposure to salt water, as is the case here.
The other options are incorrect because they do not align with the 60-month requirement in the regulation for barges with limited salt water exposure. Options B, C, and D specify shorter time periods that do not match the 60-month standard.
