The instructions for launching lifeboats and liferafts on a MODU must be approved by the _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) Coast Guard.
The instructions for launching lifeboats and liferafts on a Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit (MODU) must be approved by the Coast Guard. This requirement is specified in the Coast Guard regulations for MODUs, which fall under the jurisdiction of the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard is responsible for overseeing the safety and emergency response procedures on these offshore units. The other options are incorrect because the Minerals Management Service (now Bureau of Ocean Energy Management) does not approve these instructions, the person-in-charge of the unit does not have the authority to approve them, and the lease operator is not the regulatory authority responsible for this approval.
