Voluntary Intermodal Sealift
Agreement (VISA)
Maritime Administration, DOT.
Notice of open season for
enrollment in the VISA program.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
Introduction
The VISA program was established
pursuant to section 708 of the Defense
Production Act of 1950, as amended
(DPA), which provides for voluntary
agreements for emergency preparedness
programs. VISA was approved for a two
year term on January 30, 1997, and
published in the Federal Register on
February 13, 1997, (62 FR 6837).
Effective September 30, 2009, the DPA
for voluntary agreements and plans of
action for preparedness programs was
amended to note that each voluntary
agreement expires five (5) years after the
date it becomes effective. Therefore,
approval of the VISA as published in
the Federal Register on March 24, 2010
(75 FR 14245) is currently extended
until October 1, 2014.
As implemented, the VISA program is
open to U.S.-flag vessel operators of
oceangoing militarily useful vessels, to
include tugs and barges. An operator is
defined as an owner or bareboat
charterer of a vessel. Tug enrollment
alone does not satisfy VISA eligibility.
Operators include vessel owners and
bareboat charter operators if satisfactory
signed agreements are in place
committing the assets of the owner to
the bareboat charterer for purposes of
VISA. Voyage and space charterers are
