[CGD 95–039]

Oil Spill Removal Organization

Program Workshop

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is

considering revisions to its Oil Spill

Removal Organization (OSRO)

classification process. The Coast Guard

has identified a number of economic,

programmatic, and operational

inefficiencies in the current process. In

order to fully understand and properly

address these concerns with a focus on

meeting our customer needs, the Coast

Guard intends to revise the OSRO

program. The Coast Guard will conduct

a workshop to obtain information from

the affected community and the general

public.

DATES: The workshop will be held June

15, 1995 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Comments on proposed issues to be

raised at the workshop should be

submitted by May 30, 1995. Individuals

interested in attending the public

workshop should contact LT Terry

Hoover by June 8, 1995.

ADDRESSES: The workshop will be held

at the Best Western Old Colony Inn, 625

1st Street, Alexandria, Virginia. Written

comments should be mailed to

Commandant (G–MEP–2), Room 2100,

U.S. Coast Guard, 2100 Second Street,

SW., Washington, DC 20593–0001,

ATTN: LT Terry Hoover.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: LT

Terry Hoover, Marine Environmental

Protection Division (G–MEP), U.S. Coast

Guard, 2100 Second Street, SW.,

Washington, DC 20593–0001, telephone

(202) 267–0448.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OSRO

program was established to allow vessel

and facility owners and operators to list

a Coast Guard evaluated OSRO in an

OPA 90 response plan in lieu of

providing a detailed list of oil spill

response equipment. Through the plan

development and plan review processes,

inefficiencies have been identified in

the OSRO classification process.

Because of these identified

inefficiencies, the Coast Guard intends

to revise the OSRO program.

The Coast Guard held a similar

workshop in January 1994, with the

intent of reviewing how the program

was serving the customer and

potentially modifying the OSRO

program. However, since revisions

would have been implemented during

the critical response plan preparation

and submission period, it was

determined that modifying the OSRO

program might adversely disrupt the

ongoing planning process. The issues

raised at the January 1994 workshop

will be summarized at the June 1995

workshop.

The workshop format will consist of

a briefing on the current program, a

review of difficulties reported, a verbal

summary of written comments received

to date, and a structured but open forum

discussion on ideas to improve the

system. Written comments or questions

may be submitted before or after the

workshop. All comments or questions

after the workshop should be submitted

prior to July 1, 1995. The Coast Guard

intends to publish a revised process no

later than August 1, 1995. Any changes

to location or dates of the workshop will

be announced in the Federal Register.

The Coast Guard also plans to hold a

workshop on June 14, 1995, at the same

location to discuss the National

Preparedness for Response Exercise

Program (PREP). A separate notice will

be published in the Federal Register to

address the PREP workshop.

Dated: May 9, 1995.

G.N. Naccara,

Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Acting Chief,

Office of Marine Safety, Security and

Environmental Protection.
