Certificates of Alternative Compliance, First Coast Guard 
District

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard announces that the First Coast Guard 
District's Prevention Department has issued certificates of alternative 
compliance with the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions 
at Sea (72 COLREGS), to vessels of special construction or purpose that 
cannot fully comply with the light, shape, and sound signal provisions 
of 72 COLREGS without interfering with their special function. This 
notice promotes the Coast Guard's maritime safety and stewardship 
missions.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For information about this document

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    The United States is signatory to the International Maritime 
Organization's International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at 
Sea, 1972, as amended. The special construction or purpose of some 
vessels makes them unable to comply with the light, shape, and sound 
signal provisions of 72 COLREGS. Under statutory law \1\ and Coast 
Guard regulation,\2\ a vessel may instead meet alternative requirements 
and the vessel's owner, builder, operator, or agent may apply for a 
certificate of alternative compliance (COAC). The Chief of the 
Inspections and Investigations Branch in each Coast Guard District 
office determines whether the vessel for which the COAC is sought 
complies as closely as possible with 72 COLREGS, and decides whether to 
issue the COAC. Once issued, a COAC remains valid until information 
supplied in the application for the COAC, or the terms of the COAC, 
become inapplicable to the vessel. Under the governing statute \3\ and 
regulation,\4\ the Coast Guard must publish notice of each COAC issued 
by the District office.
