In what location MUST a duplicate fire control plan be located?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Gangway.
The requirement for the location of a duplicate fire control plan is specified in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) for the US Coast Guard. According to 46 CFR 78.47-20, a duplicate fire control plan must be permanently posted or stored in a protected location that is accessible in the event of an emergency, which is typically the gangway or another readily accessible location.
The other options are incorrect because the Chief Mate's Office, Crew Mess, and Engine Room are not the required locations specified in the regulations for the duplicate fire control plan.
