| 00-18 | Eligibility of U.S.-Flag Vessels of 100 Feet or Greater In Registered Length to Obtain a Fishery Endorsement to the Vessel's Documentation | Proposed Rule | The Maritime Administration (``MARAD, we, our, or us'') is soliciting public comments on implementation of the new U.S. citizenship requirements set forth in the American Fisheries Act of 1998 (``AFA''), Title II, Division C, Public Law 105-277, for vessels of 100 feet or greater in registered length for which a fishery endorsement to the vessel's documentation is sought. The NPRM implements new statutory requirements of the AFA by raising the U.S. ownership and control standards for U.S.-flag fishing vessels of 100 feet or greater in registered length that are operating in U.S. waters, by eliminating exemptions for fishing vessels that can not meet current citizenship standards, by phasing out of operation many of the largest fishing vessels, and by establishing new criteria to be eligible to hold a preferred mortgage on such vessels. The regulations set out which transactions are permissible, which transactions will require prior approval, and which transactions are impermissible and, to the extent practicable, minimize disruptions to the commercial fishing industry, to the traditional financing arrangements of such industry, and to the opportunity to form fishery cooperatives. | 2000-01-05 | 2000 | 1 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/01/05/00-18/eligibility-of-us-flag-vessels-of-100-feet-or-greater-in-registered-length-to-obtain-a-fishery | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-01-05/pdf/00-18.pdf | Transportation Department; Maritime Administration | 492,282 | The Maritime Administration (``MARAD, we, our, or us'') is soliciting public comments on implementation of the new U.S. citizenship requirements set forth in the American Fisheries Act of 1998 (``AFA''), Title II, Division C, Public Law 105-277, for... |
