OMB Control Number: 1625-0005.

Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.

Affected Public: Shipping agents and terminal operators that handle

hazardous materials.

Abstract: Sections 1225 and 1231 of 33 U.S.C. authorize the Coast

Guard to establish standards for the handling, storage, and movement of

hazardous materials on a vessel and waterfront facility. Regulations in

33 CFR 126.17, 49 CFR 176.100, and 176.415 prescribe the rules for

facilities and vessels.

Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has increased from 145 hours

to 185 hours a year.

2. Title: Security Zones, Regulated Navigation Areas, and Safety

Zones.

OMB Control Number: 1625-0020.

Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.

Affected Public: Federal, State, and local government agencies,

vessels, and facilities.

Abstract: Sections 1226 and 1231 of 33 U.S.C.; 50 U.S.C. 191 and

195; and parts 6 and 165 of 33 CFR give the Coast Guard Captain of the

Port (COTP) the authority to designate security zones in the U.S. for

as long as deemed necessary to prevent damage or injury. Section 1223

of 33 U.S.C. authorizes the Coast Guard to prescribe rules to control

vessel traffic in areas deemed hazardous because of reduced visibility,

adverse weather, or vessel congestion. Section 1225 of 33 U.S.C.

authorizes the Coast Guard to establish rules to allow the designation

of safety zones where access is limited to authorized persons,

vehicles, or vessels to protect the public from hazardous situations.

Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has increased from 194 hours

to 295 hours a year.

3. Title: Self-propelled Liquefied Gas Vessels.

OMB Control Number: 1625-0029.

Type Of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.

Affected Public: Owners and operators of self-propelled vessels

carrying liquefied gas.

Abstract: Sections 3703 and 9101 of 46 U.S.C. authorize the Coast

Guard to establish regulations to protect life, property, and the

environment from the hazards associated with the carriage of dangerous

liquid cargo in bulk. Part 154 of 46 CFR prescribes these rules for the

carriage of liquefied gases in bulk on self-propelled vessels by

governing the design, construction, equipment, and operation of these

vessels and the safety of personnel aboard them.

Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has increased from 5,416

hours to 6,566 hours a year.

4. Title: Plan Approval and Records for Electrical Engineering

Regulations--Title 46 CFR Subchapter J.

OMB Control Number: 1625-0031.

Type Of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.

Affected Public: Owners, operators, and builders of vessels.

Abstract: Sections 3306 and 3703 of 46 U.S.C. authorize the Coast

Abstract: Section 3306 of 46 U.S.C. authorizes the Coast Guard to

prescribe regulations necessary to carry out inspections of vessels

required under 46 U.S.C. 3301. Within the same subtitle, section 3103

allows the Coast Guard to rely on reports, documents, and records of

other persons/methods determined to be reliable, to ensure compliance

with vessels and seamen requirements. The SIP regulations under 46 CFR

part 8, subpart E, offer owners and operators of inspected vessels an

alternative to traditional Coast Guard inspection procedures. Owners

and operators of vessels opting to participate in the program will

maintain them in compliance with a Company Action Plan (CAP) and Vessel

Action Plan (VAP). They will have their own personnel periodically

perform many of the tests/examinations conducted by marine inspectors

of the Coast Guard, who expect participating vessels will continuously

meet a higher level of safety/readiness throughout the inspection

cycle.

Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has increased from 2,138

hours to 2,496 hours a year.
