Hull TGI–329 cannot fully comply with
the light, shape, or sound signal
provisions of the 72 COLREGS without
interfering with the vessel’s design and
construction. This notification of
issuance of a certificate of alternative
compliance promotes the Coast Guard’s
marine safety mission.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
information or questions about this
notice call or email Mr. Kevin Miller,
First District Towing Vessel/Barge
Safety Specialist, U.S. Coast Guard;
telephone (617) 223–8272, email
[email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
United States is a signatory to the
International Maritime Organization’s
International Regulations for Preventing
Collisions at Sea, 1972 (72 COLREGS),
as amended. The special construction or
purpose of some vessels makes them
unable to comply with the light, shape,
or sound signal provisions of the 72
COLREGS. Under statutory law,
however, specified 72 COLREGS
provisions are not applicable to a vessel
of special construction or purpose if the
Coast Guard determines that the vessel
cannot comply fully with those
requirements without interfering with
the special function of the vessel.1
The owner, builder, operator, or agent
of a special construction or purpose
vessel may apply to the Coast Guard
District Office in which the vessel is
being built or operated for a
determination that compliance with
alternative requirements is justified,2
and the Chief of the Prevention Division
would then issue the applicant a
certificate of alternative compliance
(COAC) if he or she determines that the
vessel cannot comply fully with 72
COLREGS light, shape, and sound signal
provisions without interference with the
vessel’s special function.3 If the Coast
Guard issues a COAC, it must publish
notice of this action in the Federal
Register.4
The First District Prevention
Department, U.S. Coast Guard, certifies
that the Blount Boats Inc., Hull TGI–329
is a vessel of special construction or
purpose, and that, with respect to the
position of the vessels side light, it is
not possible to comply fully with the
requirements of the provisions
enumerated in the 72 COLREGS,
without interfering with the normal

operation, construction, or design of the
vessel. The First District Prevention
Department further finds and certifies
that the vessel’s sidelights (12′ 1.67″
from the vessel’s side mounted on the
pilot house) are in the closest possible
compliance with the applicable
provisions of the 72 COLREGS.5
This notice is issued under authority
of 33 U.S.C. 1605(c) and 33 CFR 81.18.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, invite
the public to comment on applications
for permits under section 10(a)(1)(A) of
the Endangered Species Act, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).
The requested permits would allow the
applicants to conduct activities
intended to promote recovery of species
that are listed as endangered or
threatened under the ESA.
Background
With some exceptions, the ESA
prohibits activities that constitute take
of listed species unless a Federal permit
is issued that allows such activity. The
ESA’s definition of ‘‘take’’ includes such
activities as pursuing, harassing,
trapping, capturing, or collecting in
addition to hunting, shooting, harming,
wounding, or killing.
A recovery permit issued by us under
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA
authorizes the permittee to conduct
activities with endangered or threatened
species for scientific purposes that
promote recovery or for enhancement of
propagation or survival of the species.
These activities often include such
prohibited actions as capture and
collection. Our regulations
implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for
these permits are found in the Code of
Federal Regulations at 50 CFR 17.22 for
endangered wildlife species, 50 CFR
17.32 for threatened wildlife species, 50
CFR 17.62 for endangered plant species,
and 50 CFR 17.72 for threatened plant
species.
Permit Applications Available for
Review and Comment
Proposed activities in the following
permit requests are for the recovery and
enhancement of propagation or survival
of the species in the wild. The ESA
requires that we invite public comment
before issuing these permits.
Accordingly, we invite local, State,
Tribal, and Federal agencies and the
public to submit written data, views, or
arguments with respect to these
applications. The comments and
recommendations that will be most
useful and likely to influence agency
decisions are those supported by
quantitative information or studies.
