Zone 21 has an alternate control location at which area?

• A. Flight Deck Control & FWD and AFT of the island
• B. Jet Shop
• C. Bridge
• D. Pump Room 2

Answer: (A)

Having an alternate control location is about keeping the AFFF transfer system operable even if the main control area is unavailable. For Zone 21, the designated alternate control area is the Flight Deck Control and areas forward and aft of the island. This placement gives trained personnel direct access to the necessary controls, valves, and indicators while staying out of the most hazardous zones, and it keeps lines of communication with the rest of the system intact so you can continue operating or shutting down the transfer station as needed. The Jet Shop is a maintenance area and isn’t set up as a live control point. The Bridge handles navigation and ship-wide command, not the AFFF transfer station controls. Pump Room 2 houses pumping equipment but isn’t designated as the alternate control location for Zone 21.
