AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 49 CFR and the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code.
The requirements for shipment of hazardous materials by water are found in 49 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations, Title 49 - Transportation) and the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code. The IMDG Code is the international standard for the transport of dangerous goods by sea, published by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). 46 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations, Title 46 - Shipping) covers the Coast Guard regulations, but does not contain the specific requirements for hazardous materials shipment by water. The other options are incorrect as they reference the wrong regulations or codes.
