Information Collection Request
1. Title: Alternative Compliance for
International and Inland Navigation
Rules—33 CFR Parts 81 and 89.
OMB Control Number: 1625–0019.
Summary: The information collected
provides an opportunity for an owner,
operator, builder, or agent of a unique
vessel to present their reasons why the
vessel cannot comply with existing
International/Inland Navigation Rules
and how alternative compliance can be
achieved. If appropriate, a Certificate of
Alternative Compliance is issued.
Need: Certain vessels cannot comply
with the International Navigation Rules
(see 33 U.S.C. 1601 through 1608; 28
U.S.T. 3459, and T.I.A.S. 8587) and
Inland Navigation Rules (33 U.S.C. 2001
through 2073). The Coast Guard thus
provides an opportunity for alternative
compliance. However, it is not possible
to determine whether alternative
compliance is appropriate, or what kind
of alternative procedures might be
necessary, without this collection.
Respondents: Vessel owners,
operators, builders and agents.
Frequency: One-time application.
Burden Estimate: The estimated
burden has decreased from 180 hours to
122 hours a year.
2. Title: Approval of Alterations to
Marine Portable Tanks; Approval of
Non-specification Portable Tanks.
OMB Control Number: 1625–0062.
Summary: The information will be
used to evaluate the safety of proposed
alterations to marine portable tanks and
non-specification portable tank designs
used to transfer hazardous materials
during offshore operations, e.g., drilling
rigs.
Need: Approval by the Coast Guard of
alterations to marine portable tanks
under 46 CFR part 64 ensures that the
altered tank retains the level of safety to
which it was originally designed. In

addition, rules that allow for the
approval of non-specification portable
tanks ensure that innovation and new
designs are not frustrated by the
regulation.
Respondents: Owners of marine
portable tanks and owners/designers of
non-specification portable tanks.
Frequency: On occasion.
Burden Estimate: The estimated
burden remains unchanged at 18 hours
a year.
3. Title: Navigation Safety Information
and Emergency Instructions for Certain
Towing Vessels.
OMB Control Number: 1625–0082.
Summary: Navigation safety
regulations in 33 CFR part 164 help
assure that the mariner piloting a towing
vessel has adequate equipment, charts,
maps, and other publications. For
inspected towing vessels, under 46 CFR
199.80 a muster list and emergency
instructions provide effective plans and
references for crew to follow in an
emergency situation.
Need: The purpose of the regulations
is to improve the safety of towing
vessels and the crews that operate them.
Respondents: Owners, operators and
masters of vessels.
Frequency: On occasion.
Burden Estimate: The estimated
burden has decreased from 367,701

is needed to enforce sewage and
graywater discharge requirements from
certain cruise ships operating on
Alaskan waters.
Need: Title 33 CFR part 159 subpart
E prescribes regulations governing the
discharge of sewage and graywater from
cruise vessels, requires sampling and
testing of sewage and graywater
discharges, and establishes reporting
and recordkeeping requirements.
Respondents: Owners, operators and
masters of vessels.
Frequency: On occasion.
Burden Estimate: The estimated
burden has decreased from 910 hours to
637 hours a year.
