Nationwide Automatic Identification 

System (NAIS); Preparation of 

Programmatic Environmental Impact 

Statement 

AGENCY: U.S. Coast Guard (USCG or 

Coast Guard), Department of Homeland 

Security (DHS). 

ACTION: Notice of intent; notice of public 

meeting; request for comments. 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 225 / Wednesday, November 23, 2005 / Notices 70863 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard announces 

that it intends to prepare a 

Programmatic Environmental Impact 

Statement (PEIS) as part of the 

environmental planning process for the 

Nationwide Automatic Identification 

System (NAIS) project. The NAIS 

project, a USCG and DHS Level 1 

investment and major systems 

acquisition, was initiated as a 

component of implementing the 

Maritime Transportation Security Act of 

2002. Implementation of the NAIS, in 

part, involves installing Automatic 

Identification System (AIS) equipment 

and related support systems on and 

around communications towers or other 

structures along 95,000 miles of 

coastline and inland rivers. 

The NAIS project is being conducted 

to provide the USCG with the capability 

to receive and distribute information 

from shipboard Automatic Identification 

System (AIS) equipment in order to 

enhance Maritime Domain Awareness 

(MDA). The project will provide 

detection and identification of vessels 

carrying AIS equipment approaching or 

operating in the maritime domain where 

little or no vessel tracking currently 

exists. 

AIS is an international standard, 

approved by the International Maritime 

Organization (IMO), for ship-to-ship, 

ship-to-shore and shore-to-ship 

communication of information, 

including vessel position, speed, course, 

destination, and other data of critical 

interest for maritime safety and security. 

The information provided by this 

system will support national maritime 

interests—from the safety of ports 

through collision avoidance, to the 

safety of the nation through detection 

and classification of vessels when they 

are still thousands of miles offshore. 

Publication of this notice begins a 

scoping process that identifies and 

determines the scope of environmental 

issues to be addressed in the PEIS. This 

notice requests public participation in 

the scoping process and provides 

information on how to participate. 

DATES: The USCG will hold a public 

meeting concerning the scope of the 

PEIS. The public meeting will be held 

on Thursday, December 22, 2005, at the 

USCG Headquarters building in

will be held from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 

will be preceded by an open house from 

1 p.m. to 2 p.m. The public meeting may 

end later than the stated time, 

depending on the number of persons 

wishing to speak.

information as well as information 

about your specific needs. 

Background and Purpose 

The Maritime Transportation Security 

Act (MTSA) of 2002 (46 U.S.C. 70113) 

directed the Secretary of the Department 

of Homeland Security to ‘‘implement a 

system to collect, integrate, and analyze 

information concerning vessels 

operating on or bound for waters subject 

to the jurisdiction of the United States.’’

Furthermore, Congress appropriated 

funds to the Coast Guard for ‘‘the 

acquisition and installation * * * of the 

shore-based universal AIS coverage 

system in ports nationwide.’’ The Coast 

Guard will implement such a system in 

support of MDA through the proposed 

NAIS project. 

AIS is an international standard 

(International Telecommunications 

Union Recommendation ITU–R M. 

1371–1) for ship-to-ship, ship-to-shore 

and shore-to-ship communication of 

information, including vessel position, 

speed, course, destination and other 

data of critical interest for maritime 

safety and security. AIS equipment is 

required domestically and 

internationally aboard major 

commercial vessels. AIS is a 

communication system that relies upon 

vessels to properly transmit their 

position, identification, speed, and 

other navigational information. 

Certain vessels are currently subject to 

carriage requirements for AIS 

equipment. Despite the nation’s critical 

homeland security need to track these 

vessels, USCG does not have the 

network of receivers and transmitters 

necessary to capture, display, and use 

this AIS information except in a few 

select port areas. The information 

provided by this system will support all 

of the nation’s maritime interests—from 

the safety of ports through collision 

avoidance, to the safety of the nation 

through detection and classification of 

vessels when they are still thousands of 

miles offshore. The NAIS project will 

provide the United States with the 

ability to fully utilize the IMO 

international standard and requirements 

outlined in MTSA of 2002. 

Although mandated by Congress, 

consideration of the NAIS project 

includes analysis of the proposed 

project’s natural and human 

environmental impacts. The Coast 

Guard is the lead agency for 

determining the scope of this review, 

and in this case the Coast Guard has 

determined that review must include 

preparation of a PEIS. This notice of 

intent is required by 40 CFR 1508.22, 

and briefly describes the proposed 

action and possible alternatives and our 

proposed scoping process. You can 

address any questions about the 

proposed action, the scoping process, or 

the PEIS to the Coast Guard NAIS 

Project Office (see FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT). 

Proposed Action and Alternatives 

The Proposed Action to be analyzed 

in the PEIS is the broad scope of 

implementation of the NAIS project. 

The PEIS will provide a general level of 

analysis of alternatives and 

environmental impacts because specific 

implementation sites and methods are 

not currently known. The PEIS will 

serve as a top tier environmental 

analysis of the general project of 

installing a nationwide AIS-based vessel 

detection, identification, tracking and 

communication system. Following 

completion of the PEIS, the USCG will 

conduct site-specific environmental 

analysis coincident with project 

implementation, once specific sites 

become known. The following 

alternatives for establishing shore-based 

antenna sites (e.g., towers) will be 

evaluated in the PEIS: Use of existing or 

currently proposed government sites; 

Lease of commercial sites; Construction 

of new sites. The preferred alternative is 

to implement a combination of the 

shore-based antenna site alternatives. 

The PEIS will also discuss the No 

Action Alternative as required under 

NEPA. 

Scoping Process 

Public scoping is an early and open 

process for identifying and determining 

the scope of issues to be addressed in 

the PEIS. Scoping begins with this 

notice, continues through the public 

comment period (see DATES), and ends 

when the Coast Guard has completed 

the following actions: 

• Invites the participation of Federal, 

State, and local agencies, any affected 

Indian tribe and other interested 

persons; 

• Determines the actions, alternatives, 

and impacts described in 40 CFR 

1508.25; 

• Identifies and eliminates from 

detailed study those issues that are not 

significant or that have been covered 

elsewhere; 

• Allocates responsibility for 

preparing PEIS components; 

• Indicates any related environmental 

assessments or environmental impact 

statements that are not part of the PEIS; 

• Other relevant environmental 

review and consultation requirements; 

• Indicates the relationship between 

timing of the environmental review and 

other aspects of the proposed program; 

and 

• At its discretion, exercises the 

options provided in 40 CFR 1501.7(b). 

Once the scoping process is complete, 

the Coast Guard will prepare a draft 

PEIS, and will publish a Federal 

Register notice announcing its public 

availability. (If you want that notice to 

be sent to you, please contact the Coast 

Guard Project Office point of contact 

identified in FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT). You will have an opportunity 

to review and comment on the draft 

PEIS. Additionally, the Coast Guard 

anticipates holding a public meeting in 

May, 2006 in Washington, DC to present 

the draft PEIS and receive public 

comments regarding the document. The 

Coast Guard will consider all comments 

received and then prepare the final 

PEIS. As with the draft PEIS, the Coast 

Guard will announce the availability of 

the final PEIS and once again give you 

an opportunity for review and comment. 

Summary of the Proposed NAIS Project 

The general NAIS concept of 

operations is to provide AIS 

functionality in support of all national 

maritime missions, particularly 

navigation safety and maritime security. 

NAIS is expected to consist of a system 

of AIS receivers, transmitters, 

transceivers, repeaters and other 

equipment located on shoreside 

installations and remote platforms 

potentially including buoys, offshore 

platforms, aircraft and spacecraft as 

needed to receive, distribute, and use 

the information transmitted by vessels 

that operate AIS equipment and 

transmit data to these vessels. 

NAIS will send and receive AIS 

messages, via a very high frequency 

(VHF) data link, to and from AIS 

equipped vessels, Aids to Navigation, 

and search and rescue (SAR) aircraft. 

Nationwide AIS will leverage several 

types of platforms to support AIS 

receive and transmit infrastructure. 

While some support receive-only 

capabilities (e.g., satellites, buoys, and 

aircraft), others may support receive and 

transmit capabilities (e.g., towers and 

platforms). AIS message data will be 

transported between system 

components over a wide-area network 

(WAN) and diverse, remote site 

connectivity (e.g., leased analog circuits, 

microwave). 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 225 / Wednesday, November 23, 2005 / Notices 70865 

NAIS will process (e.g., validate, 

filter, etc.) and store the data. Some 

NAIS functions may be implemented by 

enhancing existing systems. These 

systems, while not part of NAIS, are 

included in the context of the systems’

operations. Primarily, it is expected that 

these systems (e.g., Ports and Waterways 

Safety System [PAWSS], Sector 

Command Centers [SCC], Maritime 

Information Safety and Law 

Enforcement [MISLE], Vessel Traffic 

Services [VTS]) will provide data 

processing functions (e.g., vessel 

tracking correlation, intelligence 

processing, anomaly detection) and user 

interfaces necessary to meet all the 

requirements for fully using AIS data. 

Some users of NAIS capabilities (e.g., 

Deepwater assets and other government 

agencies) may indirectly access AIS data 

via other systems. 

NAIS will complement other 

surveillance and intelligence systems 

greatly aiding the essential process of 

identifying vessels requiring further 

investigation and action. NAIS 

information will be displayed in the 

USCG national maritime COP and 

shared, along with correlated data and 

intelligence as appropriate, with other 

DHS and federal agencies. Unclassified 

portions of the COP will also be 

available to local port partners in 

support of security and safety 

operations. This information will be 

invaluable to agencies, such as Customs 

and Border Patrol (CBP), Immigration 

and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the 

Transportation Security Administration 

(TSA), as it will provide real-time 

location data on all major cargo and 

other commercial vessels in the 

maritime domain.

1995 (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), this 

notice seeks comments concerning the 

use of the Emergency Management 

Institute Resident Course Evaluation 

Form which is used to identify 

problems with course materials, 

evaluate the quality of course delivery, 

facilities and instructors. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Emergency Management Institute (EMI) 

develops courses and administers 

resident and nonresident training 

programs in areas such as natural 

hazards, technical hazards, instructional 

methodology, professional 

development, leadership, exercise 

design and evaluation, information 

technology, public information, 

integrated emergency management, and 

train-the-trainer. A significant portion of 

the training is conducted by State 

emergency management agencies under 

cooperative agreements with FEMA. 

In order to meet current information 

needs of EMI staff and management, the 

EMI uses this course evaluation form to 

identify problems with course materials, 

delivery, facilities and instructors. This 

is a resident evaluation form. EMI staff 

will use the information to monitor and 

recommend changes in course materials, 

student selection criteria, training 

experience, and classroom environment. 

Reports will be generated and 

distributed to EMI management and 

staff. Without the information it will be 

difficult to determine the need for 

improvements and the degree of student 

satisfaction with each course. 

The respondents are students 

attending EMI resident courses at either 

the National Emergency Training Center 

(NETC) or at an off-site location. The 

evaluation form will be administered at 

the end of the course and will take no 

more than 10 minutes to complete. 

Contractors will scan the evaluation 

forms and generate the data reports 

using a computer program developed by 

a FEMA program analyst contractor. 

Evaluation forms are destroyed in 

accordance with FEMA’s records 

retention schedule.
