The final message or report for a class C through E mishap MUST be submitted within _________.

The final message or report for a class C through E mishap MUST be submitted within _________.

• A. 7 days
• B. 14 days
• C. 30 days
• D. 60 days

Answer: (C)

Final mishap reports for Class C through E are required within 30 days. The final report brings together what happened, the investigation findings, root causes, and recommended corrective actions. A 30-day window keeps information fresh for safety programs and leadership while still giving investigators enough time to gather facts, interview witnesses, and analyze evidence. Times much shorter than 30 days wouldn’t allow a thorough analysis, and waiting much longer than 30 days delays corrective actions and safety trend analysis.
