ATC can issue a STAR

A

to all pilots wherever STARs are available.

B

only if the pilot requests a STAR in the 'Remarks' section of the flight plan.

C

when ATC deems it appropriate, unless the pilot requests 'No STAR.'✓ Correct Answer

Explanation

Under AIM 5-4-1, IFR pilots going to airports with published STARs may be issued one whenever ATC deems it appropriate. A pilot who does not want a STAR should put "NO STAR" in the remarks of the flight plan, or less desirably say so to ATC. No request is needed to receive a STAR, and STARs are not automatically issued to everyone.
