Who must comply?

Owners and operators of documented and undocumented commercial fishing industry vessels.

What is this collection about?

This information is used by the owners and operators of commercial fishing vessels to assess the safety of their vessels and document compliance with safety regulations. This information is also used by the Coast Guard (CG) to determine compliance of fishing vessels with specific safety equipment requirements.

For a request for a waiver of the citizenship requirements for crewmembers on commercial fishing vessels, the information is used by the CG to determine whether or not to grant relief from the requirements.

Where do I find the requirements for this information?

Title 46 CFR Parts 25 and 28 are available at—https://www.eCFR.gov, select TITLE 46 – SHIPPING, and follow to Parts 25 and 28.

When must information be submitted to the Coast Guard?

The information must be made available for examination by Coast Guard upon request.

For a request for a waiver of the citizenship requirements for crewmembers on commercial fishing vessels, a properly submitted request should be received at least 30 days prior to employment of the crewmember.

How is the information submitted?

The information must be made available for examination by Coast Guard upon request.

A request for a waiver of the citizenship requirements for crewmembers on commercial fishing vessels is submitted to the Commandant, U.S. Coast Guard Stop 7501, 2703 Martin Luther King Jr Ave SE, Washington, DC 20593-7501, or e-mail to [email protected].

What happens when complete information is received?

Coast Guard personnel will examine information to determine compliance with safety regulations.

For a request for a waiver of the citizenship requirements for crewmembers on commercial fishing vessels, the Coast Guard will evaluate the information and may investigate further, as necessary, to determine the validity of the information provided. If, within 30 days of receipt of a properly submitted request for a waiver, the Coast Guard does not make a determination whether to approve the request or does not advise the owner, operator, or employer that additional time is needed for consideration, the request will be considered provisionally approved for 90 days from the end of that 30-day period.

An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control number.

The Coast Guard estimates that the average burden per response for this report varies per information collection—about 6 minutes for recordkeeping (maintaining a safety orientation letter of certification); 1 hour for marking of emergency equipment; 1 hour for an exemption request; 1 hour for a stability evaluation attestation; 2 hours for a processing vessel exam; 3 hours for a processing vessel survey; 3 hours to develop emergency instructions; about 9 hours per citizenship waiver request; and up to 10 hours to develop stability instructions. You may submit any comments concerning the accuracy of this burden estimate or any suggestions for reducing the burden to: Commandant (CG-CVC), U.S. Coast Guard Stop 7501, 2703 Martin Luther King Jr Ave SE, Washington, DC 20593-7501 or Office of Management and Budget, Paperwork Reduction Project (1625-0061), Washington, DC 20503.
