You are on a multiple-product chemical tanker. The loading plan includes cargoes of diethylenetriamine and formamide. Which statement concerning the stowage of these cargoes is TRUE?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option C — The minimum segregation required is a single bulkhead.
Diethylenetriamine and formamide are chemically compatible amine and amide derivatives under 46 CFR Part 153, Table 1. Consequently, they require only standard single-bulkhead separation rather than dedicated void spaces or cofferdams.
