    • 120.
    • 50.

  2. Question 2

    Although the «can test» is not a substitute for proper laboratory testing, which ONE of the following correctly identifies what a «wet» result should tell the master or mate?
    • That the sample is likely to be above the TML and that there is a risk of cargo liquefaction in the remainder of the cargo presented to the ship.
    • That the sample for the ‘can test’ was taken from too near the surface of the stockpile.
    • That the sample is likely to be above the TML but the rest of the cargo will probably be safe to load.
