    What do you call pollution that is being produced from the main engine of a ships?

    • A.

      Ozone

    • B.

      Noxious waste

    • C.

      Sulphur oxides

    • D.

      Nitrogen oxides

    Correct Answer
    D. Nitrogen oxides
    Explanation
    Nitrogen oxides refer to the pollution that is being produced from the main engine of ships. These pollutants are formed when nitrogen in the fuel or air reacts with oxygen during the combustion process. Nitrogen oxides contribute to air pollution and can have harmful effects on human health and the environment. They are regulated by international and national laws to reduce their emissions from ships and other sources.

    The following are the factors of fuel oil quality supplied to a vessel to be controlled and monitored?

    • A.

      Maximum sulphur content of 4.%

    • B.

      Could not exceed the limit of NOx emission limit

    • C.

      Contain inorganic acid

    • D.

      Oil residues shall be minimized

    Correct Answer
    D. Oil residues shall be minimized
    Explanation
    The answer "oil residues shall be minimized" is the correct choice because it aligns with the idea of controlling and monitoring the quality of fuel oil supplied to a vessel. Minimizing oil residues is important to ensure that the fuel oil is clean and free from impurities, which can affect the performance of the vessel's engine. By reducing oil residues, the risk of clogging fuel filters and injectors is minimized, leading to improved fuel efficiency and reduced maintenance costs.

    Rate this question:

  • 42. 

    How many years shall the bunker delivery note be retained on board after the fuel oil has been delivered for available inspections?

    • A.

      5 years

    • B.

      2 years

    • C.

      3 years

    • D.

      3 months

    Correct Answer
    C. 3 years
    Explanation
    The bunker delivery note should be retained on board for 3 years after the fuel oil has been delivered for available inspections. This is important for record-keeping purposes and to ensure that the vessel remains compliant with regulations. By retaining the bunker delivery note for this duration, the ship can provide evidence of the fuel oil quality and quantity delivered, which may be required for inspections or audits.

  • 43. 

    Who creates a system in which private would supply the bulk of equipment and personnel needed to respond to and clean up an oil spill?

    • A.

      USCG

    • B.

      SOPEP

    • C.

      OPA 90

    • D.

      All of the above

    Correct Answer
    C. OPA 90
    Explanation
    OPA 90, or the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, is a U.S. federal law that was enacted after the Exxon Valdez oil spill. It establishes the framework for responding to and cleaning up oil spills. OPA 90 requires the creation of a system where private entities, such as oil companies, would be responsible for providing the necessary equipment and personnel to respond to and clean up oil spills. Therefore, OPA 90 is the correct answer as it specifically addresses the creation of a system where the private sector plays a major role in oil spill response and cleanup efforts.

    Rate this question:

  • 44. 

    How many minutes the Oil Spill Removal Organization must be activated from the time the oil spill is discovered?

    • A.

      50 minutes

    • B.

      25 minutes

    • C.

      30 minutes

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    C. 30 minutes
    Explanation
    The Oil Spill Removal Organization must be activated within 30 minutes from the time the oil spill is discovered. This is likely because prompt action is crucial in containing and minimizing the effects of an oil spill. By activating the organization within 30 minutes, they can quickly mobilize resources, equipment, and personnel to the site of the spill, allowing them to begin the necessary cleanup and remediation efforts in a timely manner.

  • 45. 

    Who will be available to respond on behalf of the owners or operators 24 hours a day in the vessel response plan?

    • A.

      Qualified individual

    • B.

      Crew members

    • C.

      Pollution emergency crew

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Qualified individual
    Explanation
    A qualified individual will be available to respond on behalf of the owners or operators 24 hours a day in the vessel response plan. This person is knowledgeable and trained in handling emergency situations and is responsible for coordinating response efforts, ensuring compliance with regulations, and making decisions to mitigate pollution risks. They act as a point of contact for communication and coordination with authorities, stakeholders, and response teams during an incident. The qualified individual plays a crucial role in managing and overseeing the response activities to protect the environment and minimize the impact of any pollution incidents.

    Rate this question:

  • 46. 

    Equipment used for carrying pollution response which one is not?

    • A.

      Fire extinguisher

    • B.

      Absorbent materials

    • C.

      Hand scoop

    • D.

      Bucket

    Correct Answer
    A. Fire extinguisher
    Explanation
    A fire extinguisher is not typically used for carrying pollution response. Fire extinguishers are designed specifically for extinguishing fires and are not typically used for containing or cleaning up pollution. On the other hand, absorbent materials, hand scoops, and buckets are commonly used in pollution response to contain and remove pollutants from the environment.

    Rate this question:

  • 47. 

    Which one is not a crew's response fold?

    • A.

      Call the Chief Engineer

    • B.

      Notify accordingly

    • C.

      Initiated clean up operations

    • D.

      Stop the outlaw of oil if possible

    Correct Answer
    A. Call the Chief Engineer
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "call the Chief Engineer" because the other options are all appropriate responses that a crew would take in certain situations. Calling the Chief Engineer is not a response fold because it does not specify a specific action or task that the crew should undertake. It is more of a general instruction to contact the Chief Engineer, but it does not indicate what the purpose of the call would be or what action should be taken.

  • 48. 

    Which category of garbage can be discharge within special areas no less than 12 nautical miles?

    • A.

      Plastic

    • B.

      Paper products

    • C.

      Ashes from plastic products

    • D.

      Food wastes (not ground)

    Correct Answer
    D. Food wastes (not ground)
    Explanation
    Food wastes (not ground) can be discharged within special areas no less than 12 nautical miles. This means that food waste, as long as it is not ground or processed, can be disposed of in designated areas at a certain distance from the shore. This is likely due to the fact that food waste is biodegradable and can break down naturally without causing harm to the marine environment.

    Rate this question:

  • 49. 

    Which catergory of garbage can be discharge within special areas no less than 3 miles?

    • A.

      Food wastes (ground)

    • B.

      Paper products

    • C.

      Ashes from plastic products

    • D.

      Food wastes (not ground)

    Correct Answer
    A. Food wastes (ground)
    Explanation
    Food wastes (ground) can be discharged within special areas no less than 3 miles. This means that food wastes that have been ground or processed into smaller pieces can be discharged in designated areas that are at least 3 miles away from the shore. This is likely because ground food wastes are easier to break down and disperse in the water, reducing the potential impact on the marine environment.
