Which ONE of the options is the most accurate in relation to the following statement? “If moisture migrates to the bottom part of the cargo stow, and ‘wet base’ conditions arise, it can lead to a dangerous cargo shift”

One correct answer

Which ONE of the following most accurately describes the action that should be taken where the ship’s master suspects that the various cargo stockpiles that are to be used for loading the ship may have varying moisture contents?

One correct answer
