Which light signal indicates that you have permission to enter a lock on the Ohio River?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — Flashing green
Standardized lock signaling on the Ohio River and other inland waterways designates a flashing green light as the primary signal for permission to enter. This visual cue confirms that the lock chamber is fully prepared, gates are open, and the vessel may safely proceed into the lock.
