Who must comply?

Applicants for a Coast Guard bridge permit to construct or modify bridges and causeways over navigable waters of the United States.

What is this collection about?

33 U.S.C. 401, 491, and 525 authorize the Coast Guard to approve the location and plans of bridges and causeways across navigable waters of the U.S. and impose any necessary conditions relating to the construction, maintenance, and operation of these bridges in the interest of public navigation. A bridge permit is the written approval of the location and plans of the bridge or causeway to be constructed or modified across a navigable waterway. Any individual, partnership, corporation, or local, state, or federal legislative body, agency, or authority planning to construct or modify a bridge or causeway across a navigable waterway of the U.S. must apply for a Coast Guard bridge permit in accordance with 33 CFR 115.50. This guide provides the applicant with the requirements for applying for a permit for construction of or modification to bridges crossing navigable waters. It also sets forth the procedures by which the application is processed by the Coast Guard.

When must information be submitted to/retained by the Coast Guard?

How is the information submitted?
