Information Collection Request
Title: CG-2554 Private Aids to Navigation Application. CG-4143
Application for Class I Private Aids to Navigation on Artificial
Islands/Fixed Structures.
OMB Control Number: 1625-0011.
SUMMARY: Under 14 U.S.C. 81, the Coast Guard is authorized to establish
aids to navigation. Title 14 U.S.C. section 83 prohibits establishment
of aids to navigation without permission of the Coast Guard. Title 33
CFR section 66.01-5 provides a means for private individuals to
establish privately maintained aids to navigation. Under 43 U.S.C.
1333, the Coast Guard has the authority to promulgate and enforce
regulations concerning lights and other warning devices relating to the
promotion of safety of life and property on the artificial islands,
installations, and other devices on the outer continental shelf
involved in the exploration, development, removal, or transportation of
resources therefrom. Title 33 CFR section 67.35-1 prescribes the type
of aids to navigation that must be installed on artificial islands and
fixed structures.
To obtain approval to establish a private aid to navigation,
applicants must submit either CG Form 2554 (Private Aids to Navigation
Application) or CG Form 4143 (Application for Class 1 Private Aids to
Navigation on Artificial Islands and Fixed Structures). The forms
collect information about the private aid to navigation (type, color,
geographic position), as well as the applicant's contact information.
The information is stored in the Coast Guard's Integrated Aids to
Navigation System (I-ATONIS). I-ATONIS is the Coast Guard's
comprehensive database for managing information about aids to
navigation.
Collecting the applicant's contact information is important because
it allows the Coast Guard to contact the applicant should there be a
discrepancy or mishap involving the permitted private aid to
navigation. Certain discrepancies create hazards to navigation and must
be immediately corrected or repaired. I-ATONIS has user access controls
in place to govern who may view or access the information. The contact
information is only available to Coast Guard aids to navigation
personnel and contact is only initiated if the private aid to
navigation becomes discrepant or in need of repair.
Need: Provision of the applicant's contact information is
mandatory, as it will allow the Coast Guard to contact the owner should
there be a discrepancy or mishap with the permitted aid to navigation.
Failure to provide the required contact information will lead to
disapproval of the private aid to navigation application.
Forms: CG-2554 and CG-4143.
Respondents: Owners of private aids to navigation.
Frequency: On occasion.
Burden Estimate: The estimated burden is 3,000 hours a year.
Dated: December 19, 2011.
R.E. Day,
Rear Admiral, U.S. Coast Guard, Assistant Commandant for Command,
Control, Communications, Computers and Information Technology.
