66494 Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 247 / Wednesday, December 26, 2001 / Notices

(5) A statement on the impact this

waiver will have on other commercial

passenger vessel operators. According to

the applicant: ‘‘This vessel has been

continuously involved in a bare-boat

charter program since 1987. My request

is to simply add captaining (and

potentially additional crew) for up to 12

passengers, which should provide no

adverse impact on boat chartering

industry. Size of vessel dictates day

trips and weekly charters which will not

adversely affect commuter ferry or

cruise ship industries.’’

(6) A statement on the impact this

waiver will have on U.S. shipyards.

According to the applicant: ‘‘This

waiver should have no impact on US

shipyards. Production on this vessel

ceased in Taiwan an estimated ten years

ago. The vessel will continue to be

operated for charter in the same waters,

with the addition of including the

owner as a licensed captain.’’

Dated: December 19, 2001.

By order of the Maritime Administrator.

Joel C. Richard,

Secretary, Maritime Administration.
