The change (i.e., increase) in
burden is both an ADJUSTMENT and a PROGRAM CHANGE. The adjustment
is due to rounding up of calculations in Appendix A Table 4. The
program change is due to the Prong V Final Rule. This rule requires
that vessel owners and/or operators ensure that inspection,
maintenance and recharging of fire extinguishers are carried out in
accordance with NFPA 10: 2010. NFPA 10 requires that the annual
maintenance and recharging of fire extinguishers be done by
certified persons. As such, vessel owners and/or operators are
required to keep on file a copy of the NFPA 10 certificate for the
individual conducting the annual maintenance.
