This regulation states that the operator of each vessel must keep a signed copy of the declaration of inspection for at least 1 month after the transfer operation is completed.
The other answer choices are incorrect because 10 days (A) is too short, 6 months (C) and 1 year (D) are longer durations than the 1-month requirement specified in the regulations.
