The meeting is open to the public,

Raising the Threshold of Property

Damage for Reports of Accidents

Involving Recreational Vessels

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to

raise the threshold of property damage

for reports of accidents involving

recreational vessels to $2,000 for

Calendar Year 2001. We have also

modified the methodology used to

achieve the threshold, to better account

for the rising cost of repairs on

recreational vessels. This higher

threshold would reduce the number of

accident reports for minor or cosmetic

damage, help us maintain statistics for

future years comparable to those for past

ones, and reduce the paperwork burden

on the public to report such incidents.

DATES: Comments must reach the

Docket Management Facility on or

before October 18, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Identify your comments and

related material by the docket number

for this rulemaking [USCG 1999–6094].

To make sure they do not enter the

docket more than once, please submit

them by only one of the following
