I think its B.
C requires a conjunction before that.
Otherwise it says medical refuse provides an explanation.

It is not clear, what does "that" refer to. Does it refer to "local hospitals" or "garbage".

(C)Oceangoing garbage scows dump medical refuse, believed to have originated from local hospitals, that ******don't know what the 'that' is referring to***
(D)Originated, it is believed, from local hospitals, an oceangoing garbage scow dump medical refuse and *******Incorrect 'scow' is used instead of correct 'scows'*****
(E)Originating, it is believed, from local hospitals, oceangoing garbage scows dump medical refuse and
*****Gerund is not needed...awkward construction****
