Which statement concerning immersion suits is TRUE?

AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) Immersion suits must have a PFD light attached to the front shoulder area. This is correct because US Coast Guard regulations require that immersion suits be equipped with a personal flotation device (PFD) light attached to the front shoulder area. This is a safety feature that helps rescuers locate the person in the water at night or in low visibility conditions. The other options are incorrect - A) allows for repairs but this is not a universal requirement, B) does not specify a required storage method, and D) wearing the suit during routine work is not recommended as it can be bulky and impede normal operations.
