INLAND ONLY Which statement is TRUE concerning the fog signal of a barge 35 meters in length, anchored in a "special anchorage area" approved by the Secretary?

Correct Answer: Option C — The vessel is not required to sound a fog signal.

33 CFR 83.35(i) provides an exemption for vessels anchored in a special anchorage area approved by the Secretary. Under these specific inland conditions, such vessels are not required to sound the standard fog signals otherwise mandated for vessels at anchor in restricted visibility.
