Information Collection Request. 

Title: Standard Numbering System for 

Undocumented Vessels. 

OMB Control Number: 1625–0108. 

Summary: The Standard Numbering 

System (SNS) collects information on 

undocumented vessels and vessel 

owners operating on waters subject to 

the jurisdiction of the United States. 

Federal, State, and local law 

enforcement agencies use information 

daily or as warranted from the system 

for enforcement of boating laws or theft 

and fraud investigations. Since the 

September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on 

the United States, the need has 

increased for identification of 

undocumented vessels to meet port 

security and other missions to safeguard 

the homeland. 

Need: Subsection 12301(a) of Title 46, 

United States Code, requires 

undocumented vessels equipped with 

propulsion machinery of any kind to be 

numbered in the State where the vessel 

is principally operated. Title 46 U.S.C. 

12302(a) authorized the Secretary to 

prescribe, by regulation, a SNS that may 

be implemented by the States to perform 

this function on behalf of the Federal 

Government. The Secretary shall 

approve a State numbering system that 

is consistent with the SNS. The 

Secretary has delegated his authority 

under 46 U.S.C. 12301 and 12302 to the 

Coast Guard (DHS Delegation No. 

0170.1). Regulations requiring the 

numbering of undocumented vessels are 

in 33 CFR part 173; those establishing 

the SNS for States to voluntarily carry 

out this function are contained in part 

174. For States that do not have an 

approved system, the Coast Guard 

administers vessel numbering. 

Currently, all 56 States and Territories 

have approved numbering systems. The 

approximate number of undocumented 

vessels registered by the States in 2009 

was nearly 13 million. States submit 

reports annually to the Coast Guard on 

the number, size, construction, etc., of 

vessels they have numbered. This 

information is used by the Coast Guard 

in (1) publication of an annual ‘‘Boating 

Statistics’’ report required by 46 U.S.C. 

6102(b), and (2) for allocation of Federal 

funds to assist States in carrying out the 

Recreational Boating Safety (RBS) 

Program established by 46 U.S.C. 

chapter 131. When encountering a 

vessel suspected of illegal activity, 

information from the SNS increases 

safety by assisting boarding officers in 

determining how best to approach a 

vessel. Since, the September 11, 2001 

terrorist attacks on the United States, 

the need has increased for identification 

of undocumented vessels and their 

owners for port security and other 

missions to safeguard the homeland; 

this statutory requirement dates back to 

1918. 

Forms: None. 

Respondents: Owners of all 

undocumented vessels propelled by 

machinery. ‘‘Owners’’ may include 

individuals or households, non-profit 

organizations, and small businesses 

(e.g., liveries that offer recreational 

vessels for rental by the public) or other 

for-profit organizations. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

Burden Estimate: The estimated 

burden remains the same at 286,458 

hours a year. 

Dated: November 10, 2010.
