[Docket No. USCG–2008–0462]
Printing of Coast Guard Light Lists
Coast Guard, DHS.
Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard publishes
Light List Volumes 1–4 and 6–7
annually; with Volume 5 being
published biennially. In order to adjust
to a new printing cycle, the Coast Guard
will not publish the 2008 editions of the
Light Lists as required by 33 CFR 72.05–
1 (50 FR 50904), except for Light List
Volume 5 (Mississippi River System).
The Coast Guard is changing the
publication cycle of the Light List so
that annual editions are available early
in each calendar year. Since the printing
of the 2007 editions occurred in
November 2007, they will remain
effective for approximately 14 months.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If
you have questions on this notice, email Mr. Frank Parker, U.S. Coast Guard
Headquarters, at frank.parker@uscg.mil
call or telephone him at 202–372–1551.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Between
the printing of editions, each Light List
is required to be kept up-to-date every
week by applying corrections published
in the applicable Coast Guard Local
Notices to Mariners or the National
Geospatial-Intelligence Agency’s (NGA)
Weekly Notice to Mariners. The
requirement to apply corrections is
stated in each volume. By applying the
corrections, mariners are able to
maintain up-to-date publications
regardless of the frequency of newly
printed editions. With the cost of each
Light List being between $35–$50,
mariners will not have to incur the costs
of the new editions in 2008. The 2009
editions of Volumes 1–4 and 6–7 will be
published in early 2009.
To ensure ample and adequate
notification is made to the mariner, the
Coast Guard will publish information
regarding this temporary change to the
printing cycle in the notices to mariners,
on the Coast Guard’s Navigation Center
(NAVCEN) Web site (https://
www.navcen.uscg.gov), and other forms
of communications. Coast Guard
inspectors will also be informed of this
temporary change.
Dated: July 23, 2008.

Prevention Policy.
