Where are "prohibited oil spaces" specified in the Pollution Prevention Regulations

AI Explanation
The correct answer is A. The Pollution Prevention Regulations specify the location of "prohibited oil spaces" in 33 CFR 155.470(a). This regulation states that "No person may operate a vessel unless it is equipped with a system to prevent the discharge of oil from the bilges of the engine room, pump room, and prohibited spaces." Therefore, the Pollution Prevention Regulations explicitly define "prohibited oil spaces" as a location where oil discharge is prohibited. The other answer choices (B, C, and D) do not correctly identify where "prohibited oil spaces" are specified in the regulations.
