Previous Request for Comments

This request provides a 30-day comment period required by OIRA. The

Coast Guard published the 60-day notice (87 FR 5831, February 2, 2022)

required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). That notice elicited no comments.

Accordingly, no changes have been made to the Collection.

Information Collection Request

Title: Report of Marine Casualty & Chemical Testing of Commercial

Vessel Personnel.

OMB Control Number: 1625-0001.

Summary: Marine casualty information is needed for CG

investigations of commercial vessel casualties involving death, vessel

damage, etc., as mandated by Congress. Chemical testing information is

needed to improve CG detection/reduction of drug use by mariners.

Need: Section 6101 of 46 U.S.C., as delegated by the Secretary of

Homeland Security to the Commandant, authorizes the Coast Guard to

prescribe regulations for the reporting of marine casualties involving

death, serious injury, material loss of property, material damage

affecting the seaworthiness of a vessel, or significant harm to the

environment. It also requires information on the use of alcohol be

included in a marine casualty report. Section 7503 of 46 U.S.C.

authorizes the Coast Guard to deny the issuance of licenses,

certificates of registry, and merchant mariner's documents (seaman's

papers) to users of dangerous drugs. Similarly, 46 U.S.C. 7704 requires

the Coast Guard to revoke such papers unless a holder provides

satisfactory proofs that the holder has successfully completed a

rehabilitation program acceptable to the U.S. Coast Guard and is

determined to be, by a competent substance abuse professional, free

from misuse of chemical substances and that the risk of subsequent

misuse of chemical substances is sufficiently low to justify returning

to safety-sensitive positions.

Forms:

CG-2692, Report of Marine Casualty, Commercial Diving

Casualty, or OCS-related Casualty;

CG-2692A, Barge Addendum;

CG-2692B, Report of Mandatory Chemical Testing Following a

Serious Marine Incident Involving Vessels in Commercial Service;

CG-2692C, Personnel Casualty Addendum;

CG-2692D, Involved Persons and Witnesses Addendum.

Respondents: Vessel owners and operators.

Frequency: On occasion.

Hour Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has decreased from

28,597 hours to 21,525 hours a year, due to a decrease in the estimated

number of responses.

Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. et seq.,

chapter 35, as amended.

Dated: April 21, 2022.
