Which statement is TRUE concerning spare charges for portable fire extinguishers on unmanned tank barges?

AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Regulations concerning spare charges do not apply to unmanned barges. This is correct because the regulations for portable fire extinguishers and spare charges apply to manned vessels, not unmanned tank barges. Unmanned barges are not required to carry portable fire extinguishers or maintain spare charges, as there are no crew members on board to use or maintain them. The other answer choices describe requirements for manned vessels, which do not apply to unmanned barges.
