Additionally, the Communications Act requires the inspection of small passenger ships at least once every five years. The Safety Convention (which the United States is a signatory) also requires an annual inspection. However, the Safety Convention permits an Administrator to entrust the inspections to either surveyors nominated for the purpose or to organizations recognized by it. Therefore, the United States can have other parties conduct the radio inspection of vessels for compliance with the Safety Convention. The Commission allows FCC-licensed PO 00000 Frm 00039 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 6483 technicians to conduct these inspections. FCC-licensed technicians certify that the ship passed an inspection and issue a safety certificate. These safety certificates (FCC Forms 806, 824, 827 and 829) indicate that the vessel complies with the Communications Act and the Safety Convention. These technicians are required to provide a summary of the results of the inspection in the ship’s log. In addition, the vessel’s owner, operator, or ship’s master must certify in the ship’s log that the inspection was satisfactory. Inspection certificates issued in accordance with the Safety Convention must be posted in a prominent place on the ship. Federal Communications Commission. Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary.

    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission is seeking an extension (no change

obtain the full three-year clearance from OMB.

    The FCC seeks to promote efficiency in the Commission's service to 
the public and to encourage the use of private sector organizations to 
take over government operations whenever possible. The Communications 
Act requires the Commission to inspect the radio installation of large 
cargo ships and certain passenger ships at least once a year to ensure 
that the radio installation is in compliance with the requirements of 
the Communications Act. Additionally, the Communications Act requires 
the inspection of small passenger ships at least once every five years. 
The Safety Convention (which the United States is a signatory) also 
requires an annual inspection. However, the Safety Convention permits 
an Administrator to entrust the inspections to either surveyors 
nominated for the purpose or to organizations recognized by it. 
Therefore, the United States can have other parties conduct the radio 
inspection of vessels for compliance with the Safety Convention. The 
Commission allows FCC-licensed technicians to conduct these 
inspections. FCC-licensed technicians certify that the ship passed an 
inspection and issue a safety certificate. These safety certificates 
(FCC Forms 806, 824, 827 and 829) indicate that the vessel complies 
with the Communications Act and the Safety Convention. These 
technicians are required to provide a summary of the results of the 
inspection in the ship's log. In addition, the vessel's owner, 
operator, or ship's master must certify in the ship's log that the 
inspection was satisfactory. Inspection certificates issued in 
accordance with the Safety Convention must be posted in a prominent 
place on the ship.
