structural examinations within any
five year period regardless of the type
of water in which they operate. No
more than three years may elapse between any two examinations.
(c) If, during an internal structural
examination damage or deterioration
to the hull plating or structural members is discovered, the Officer in
Charge, Marine Inspection, may require the vessel to be drydocked or otherwise taken out of service to further
assess the extent of the damage and to
effect permanent repairs.
(d) Each vessel which has not met
with the applicable examination schedules in paragraphs (a) through (c) of
this section because it is on a voyage,
must undergo the required examinations upon completion of the voyage.
(e) The Commandant (CG–543) may
authorize extensions to the examination intervals specified in paragraphs
(a) and (b) of this section.

(4) The means for examining all
through-hull

and
appurtenances;
(5) The condition of the vessel, including the anticipated draft of the
vessel at the time of survey;
(6) A description of the hull protection system; and
(7) The name and qualifications of
any third party examiner.
(c) If your vessel is 15 years old or
older, the cognizant District Commander, on a case-by-case basis, may
approve an underwater survey instead
of a drydock examination at alternating intervals. You must submit an
application for an underwater survey
to the OCMI at least 90 days before
your vessel’s next required drydock examination. You may be allowed this
option if—
(1) The vessel is qualified under paragraphs (a)(2) through (4) of this section;
(2) Your application includes the information in paragraphs (b)(1) through
(b)(7) of this section; and
(3) During the vessel’s drydock examination, preceding the underwater survey, a complete set of hull gaugings
was taken and they indicated that the
vessel was free from appreciable hull
deterioration.
(d) After the drydock examination required by paragraph (c)(3) of this section, the OCMI submits a recommendation for future underwater surveys, the
results of the hull gauging, and the results of the Coast Guards’ drydock examination results to the cognizant District Commander, for review.
