SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Public Participation and Request for 

Comments 

This Notice relies on the authority of 

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 

44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended. An 

ICR is an application to OIRA seeking 

the approval, extension, or renewal of a 

Coast Guard collection of information 

(Collection). The ICR contains 

information describing the Collection’s 

purpose, the Collection’s likely burden 

on the affected public, an explanation of 

the necessity of the Collection, and 

other important information describing 

the Collection. There is one ICR for each 

Collection. 

The Coast Guard invites comments on 

whether this ICR should be granted 

based on the Collection being necessary 

for the proper performance of 

Departmental functions. In particular, 

the Coast Guard would appreciate 

comments addressing: (1) The practical 

utility of the Collection; (2) the accuracy 

of the estimated burden of the 

Collection; (3) ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of 

information subject to the Collection; 

and (4) ways to minimize the burden of 

the Collection on respondents, 

including the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. In response to 

your comments, we may revise this ICR 

or decide not to seek an extension of 

approval for the Collection. We will 

consider all comments and material 

received during the comment period. 

We encourage you to respond to this 

request by submitting comments and 

related materials. Comments must

owners and operators of U.S. vessels an 

alternative method of complying with 

inspection requirements of the Coast 

Guard. 

Need: The SIP regulations under 46 

CFR part 8, subpart E, offer owners and 

operators of inspected vessels an 

alternative to traditional Coast Guard 

inspection procedures. Title 46 U.S.C.

prescribe regulations necessary to carry 

out the inspections of vessels required 

to be inspected under 46 U.S.C. 3103, 

and 46 U.S.C. 3301 allows the Coast 

Guard to rely on reports, documents, 

and records of other persons who have 

been determined to be reliable, and 

other methods that have been 

determined to be reliable to ensure 

compliance with vessels and seamen 

requirements under 46 U.S.C. subtitle II. 

Forms: None. 

Respondents: Owners and operators 

of vessels. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

Hour Burden Estimate: The estimated 

burden has increased from 2,334 hours 

to 8,254 hours a year due to an increase 

in the number of SIP participants (i.e., 

companies and vessels). 

Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act 

of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended. 

Dated: November 2, 2017.
