INSTRUCTIONS
THE CERTIFICATE OF ADEQUACY (COA) APPLICATION

The following instructions for individual line items are provided to assist in completing the Application for a
Certificate of Adequacy (COA). If you have any questions or need assistance in completing the Application,
please contact the U.S. Coast Guard Captain of the Port (COTP) for your area. A list of definitions, which you
may find helpful in completing the Application, is provided in 33 Code of Federal Regulations Part 158
(33 CFR 158).
1.A.

Indicate terminal if you are applying as a single terminal or indicate port if you are applying as a
group of terminals. Do not mark "COTP Designated Port" unless you have a letter from the COTP
with such a designation. COTP designation of a facility or an area as a port is for unusual
situations. If you have a question as to whether COTP designation as a port applies to your
situation, contact the COTP for your area.

1.C. (1) For a terminal, enter the company or corporation name. For a port, enter the company,
corporation, port authority, or organization by which the group of terminals is legally known.
1.C.(3) Enter the name of a person authorized to act in behalf of the terminal or port.
1.C.(5) For a terminal, enter the company or corporation name. For a port, enter the company,
corporation, port authority, or organization of which the person in charge is a member.
1.D.(1) Those applying as terminals do not have to complete this section, since the information is the
same as in 1.C. Ports are to provide this information for each of the terminals indicated in 1.B.
2.A.(1) Enter the company or corporation name of the reception facility.
2.A.(5) Check as many of the types of reception facilities as may be used.
3.A.

Enter the value as calculated on the Coast Guard optional worksheet line "AY" or other calculation
sheet.

3.B.

Enter the value as calculated on the Coast Guard optional worksheet line "AZ" or other calculation
sheet. Calculate from vessel traffic at the terminal/port for the last 12 months.

3.C.

Describe the waste the reception facility can receive. Enter "oil" for all types of oily waste.

3.D.

Describe the ship types or principal trades, e.g., crude tankers, product tankers, container ships,
grain ships, fishing vessels, etc.

3.E.

Enter a value based upon discharging waste through a single connection. This is necessary since
ships are not required to discharge waste through multiple connections. Oily ballast discharge
rates may be based on discharging through more than one connection if all of the vessels and
reception facilities have this capability.

3.F.

Enter a value upon discharging waste through a single connection. This is necessary since ships
are not required to discharge waste through multiple connections.
