USCG Exam PracticeEmergency duties — MOB, towing, and care of survivors
Under 46 CFR §28.270, which statement correctly distinguishes what viewing a videotape on emergency procedures can and cannot satisfy?
- A. Videotape viewing satisfies the drill requirement but not the instruction requirement
- B. Videotape viewing satisfies neither the instruction requirement nor the drill requirement
- ✓ Videotape viewing followed by discussion satisfies the instruction requirement but not the drill or safety orientation requirementCorrect
- D. Videotape viewing satisfies both the instruction and safety orientation requirements but not the drill requirement
Why C is correct
46 CFR §28.270(d) states that viewing videotapes covering the required contingencies, followed by a discussion led by a knowledgeable individual, satisfies the instruction requirement. It explicitly does not satisfy the drill requirement under §28.270(b) or the safety orientation requirement under §28.270(e).
