Explanation:

Question 10

Flammable chemicals in an automotive shop are stored in a designated flammable cabinet (yellow is a common color for such cabinets) for safety. Storing them anywhere away from flame/heat is too vague, and storing in a manager's office or personal cabinet is incorrect.

Before discharging wastewater, auto shops should contact the Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) to ensure compliance. Mixing with antifreeze, contacting EPA directly, or flushing directly are incorrect practices.

EPA guidelines are for environmental protection and legal compliance. Following them avoids pollution and penalties; it doesn't relate to vehicle performance, customer complaints, or car sales.

Answer:

A. In the (yellow) flammable cabinet
