revisions. The Coast Guard notes,
however, that the MSM (and any
revisions made to the MSM) reflect
current law and regulation and are
intended to provide guidance and
information to marine industry
personnel. A brief discussion of the
most important changes is included
below. For a more in-depth discussion
of the individual comments submitted,
please visit the docket for this notice to
view submitted comments and the
public comment matrix.
(1) We received several comments on
what was generally perceived to be an
increase in vessel manning, beyond that
required by law or regulation. This was
not the intention of this change and
these sections have been clarified.
(2) Several commenters expressed
concern over how an owner’s decision
to increase manning may be perceived
by the Coast Guard and that the
guidance provided did not adequately
address when manning would warrant
an additional review and modifications.
To address this concern, these sections
have been revised to focus on
watchkeeping provisions, rest
requirements, and the performance of
maintenance.
(3) Other commenters suggested that
certain tables and scales be deleted or
revised in their entirety and that the
tables for uninspected towing vessels be
replaced with those recommended by
Towing Vessel Safety Advisory
Committee (TSAC). We disagree.
Although certain tables have been
amended in response to various
comments, they reflect the current laws
and regulations pertaining to the
manning levels for various vessel types,
including uninspected towing vessels.
The Coast Guard has engaged with
TSAC to develop sample manning
scales, however this tasking and
recommendation pertains to inspected
towing vessels, in preparation for future
regulation. Once finalized, the TSAC
recommendation will be taken under
consideration for future inclusion in
MSM Volume III.
(4) A number of commenters urged
the Coast Guard to consider, and
include in this revision, the final agency
action on pending appeals regarding
when mariner credentials are required
for persons in addition to the crew. We
disagree. Decisions on appeal impacting
requirements for certain persons in
addition to the crew are being evaluated
and will be addressed in the future.
(5) Multiple commenters noted that
although the Coast Guard usually
discusses manning changes with
management, specific language should
be added to that end. We agree and
revisions have been incorporated to

VerDate Mar<15>2010

18:45 Mar 14, 2014

Jkt 232001

specifically mention the master as well
as to include provisions for manning
modifications to be discussed with the
owner/operator.
Additional substantive revisions
include: (1) the consolidation of existing
Coast Guard Policy Letters into the
Manual; (2) context on the allowable
employment and conditions of a twowatch system for specific vessel types;
and (3) policy updates reflecting the
implementation of the 2010
amendments to the International
Convention on Standards of Training,
Certification, and Watchkeeping for
Seafarers (STCW). These revisions are
presented in a new format, where MSM
Volume III has been split into two
distinct parts; Part A, Mariner
Credentialing (Chapters 1–19) and Part
B, Vessel Manning (legacy Chapters 20–
26 are now Chapters 1–7).
It should be noted that the proposed
revisions in this draft change are not
intended to preempt or take the place of
separate policy initiatives regarding
specific decisions on appeal or future
regulations. Future changes to the MSM
may be released if the Coast Guard
promulgates new regulations or appeal
decisions, which may affect the
guidance and information contained
within the MSM.
This notice is issued under authority
of 5 U.S.C. 552(a).
Dated: March 10, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

the legal basis for the Federal
Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) to provide financial assistance
and services to individuals who apply
for disaster assistance benefits in the
event of a federally declared disaster.
Regulations in title 44 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), Subpart D,
‘‘Federal Assistance to Individuals and
Households,’’ implement the policy and
procedures set forth in section 408 of
the Stafford Act, 42 U.S.C. 5174, as
amended. This program provides
financial assistance and, if necessary,
direct assistance to eligible individuals
and households who, as a direct result
of a major disaster or emergency, have
uninsured or under-insured, damage,
necessary expenses, and serious needs

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that, in a letter dated

an emergency declaration under the

VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 232001

authority of the Robert T. Stafford
Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121–5207
(the Stafford Act), as follows:
I have determined that the emergency
conditions in certain areas of the State of
Georgia resulting from a severe winter storm
beginning on February 10, 2014, and
continuing are of sufficient severity and
magnitude to warrant an emergency
declaration under the Robert T. Stafford
Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance
Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (‘‘the Stafford
Act’’). Therefore, I declare that such an
emergency exists in the State of Georgia.
You are authorized to provide appropriate
assistance for required emergency measures,
authorized under Title V of the Stafford Act,
to save lives and to protect property and
public health and safety, and to lessen or
avert the threat of a catastrophe in the
designated areas. Specifically, you are
authorized to provide assistance for
emergency protective measures (Category B),
limited to direct Federal assistance, under
the Public Assistance program.
Consistent with the requirement that
Federal assistance is supplemental, any
Federal funds provided under the Stafford
Act for Public Assistance will be limited to
75 percent of the total eligible costs. In order
to provide Federal assistance, you are hereby
authorized to allocate from funds available
for these purposes such amounts as you find
necessary for Federal emergency assistance
and administrative expenses.
Further, you are authorized to make
changes to this declaration for the approved
assistance to the extent allowable under the
Stafford Act.
