Information Collection Request
Title: Vessel and Facility Response Plans (Domestic and
International), and Additional Response Requirements for Prince William
Sound, Alaska.
OMB Control Number: 1625-0066.
Summary: The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA 90) required the
development of Vessel and Facility Response Plans to minimize the
impact of oil spills. OPA 90 also required additional response
requirements for Prince William Sound. Shipboard Oil Pollution
Emergency Plans and Shipboard Marine Pollution Emergency Plans are
required of other vessels to minimize impacts of oil spills.
Need: This information is needed to ensure that vessels and
facilities are prepared to respond in event of a spill incident. The
information will be reviewed by the Coast Guard to assess the
effectiveness of the response plan.
Forms: CG-6083, Application for Approval/Revision of Vessel
Pollution Response Plans and Vessel Response Plan (VRP) Express Search
Tool.
Respondents: Owners and operators of vessels and facilities.
Frequency: On occasion.
Hour Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has decreased from
136,460 hours to 75,395 hours a year. The decrease in burden is
primarily due to a decrease in the estimated annual number of Facility
Response Plan (FRP) respondents.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35, as amended.
Dated: 29 April 2016.
