Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option A: A) Allows hook up of firefighting water from shore facilities.
The International Shore Connection (ISC) is a universal flange that allows shore-based fire services to connect their hoses to the ship’s fire main. This enables shore teams to supply water to the ship if the internal pumps fail.
