the turn of the century. Submitters are

encouraged to provide additional

comments as new problems and

solutions are found.

We would also like to determine the

level of support for Y2K maritime

conferences in various cities. In

February, 1998, the Coast Guard cosponsored a Y2K Maritime Issues

Conference with the New York Maritime

Association Port of NY/NJ. This widely

attended information-sharing

conference drew representation from a

large cross-section of industry. Since the

Y2K problem will affect all sectors of

industry, future similar conferences may

be beneficial to stakeholders. The Coast

Guard may be interested in

cosponsoring such events in the future.

We would specifically like comments

in the following areas:

(1) Identification of Y2K problems.

(2) Solutions to and lessons learned

about Y2K problems.

(3) Resources available to address

Y2K issues.

(4) Your interest in attending Y2K

maritime conferences in Washington,

DC and other cities.

All comments, which will be

maintained on the Docket Management

System, can be accessed at http://

dms.dot.gov. Also, the Coast Guard’s

Marine Safety Y2K Web Site at: http://

www.uscg.mil/hq/g-m/nmc/y2k.htm

can be accessed to obtain information

on comments received.
