Deck General USCG Question #1499 (Set 47)

Which is NOT a safety precaution to be observed during the loading of Liquefied Gas?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option A — Make sure the rake ends of the barge are completely dry and mopped.

While cleanliness is important, mopping the rake ends of a barge is not a standard safety precaution for loading liquefied gas. Safety focus must remain on cargo containment, monitoring for leaks, verifying hose integrity, and ensuring no external ignition sources exist in the vicinity of the transfer operation.
