| 97-33477 | Alternate Compliance via Recognized Classification Society and U.S. Supplement to Rules | Rule | The Coast Guard is issuing regulations to provide owners of U.S. tank vessels, passenger vessels, cargo vessels, miscellaneous vessels and mobile offshore drilling units an alternative method to fulfill the requirements for vessel design, inspection and certification. Under this final rule, the Coast Guard can issue a certificate of inspection based upon reports by a recognized, authorized classification society that the vessel complies with the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), 1974, as amended, the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, 1973, as modified by the Protocol of 1978 relating thereto (MARPOL 73/78), other applicable international conventions, classification society rules and other specified requirements. This new procedure will reduce the burden on vessel owners and operators by establishing an alternative to the current Coast Guard inspection system that results in plan reviews and inspections by the vessel's classification society as well as by the Coast Guard. | 1997-12-24 | 1997 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1997/12/24/97-33477/alternate-compliance-via-recognized-classification-society-and-us-supplement-to-rules | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1997-12-24/pdf/97-33477.pdf | Transportation Department; Coast Guard | 492,53 | The Coast Guard is issuing regulations to provide owners of U.S. tank vessels, passenger vessels, cargo vessels, miscellaneous vessels and mobile offshore drilling units an alternative method to fulfill the requirements for vessel design, inspection... |
