Summary of Collection of Information: Part of the stated statutory policy of the Merchant Marine Act, 1936, is to foster the development and maintenance of an adequate U.S.-flag merchant marine manned with trained and efficient citizen mariners.

Need and Use of the Information: The information will be used by MARAD to determine if a current and/or projected mariner shortage exists. If there is a projected shortage that appears to be more short-term, MARAD will follow up with a more detailed survey to ascertain the best means to address the shortage.
