Background and Purpose Chapter 16 of Volume III of the Marine Safety Manual (MSM), Marine Industry Personnel, COMDTINST M16000.8B, Qualified Ratings for Merchant Mariner’s Documents, permits the issuance of an AB–MOU endorsement on a mariner’s Merchant Mariner Credential, Merchant Mariner License, or Merchant Mariner Document. (The MSM can be found online at: https://www.uscg.mil/ directives/cim/16000-16999/ CIM_16000_8B.pdf.) This policy was put in place in order to increase the number of mariners eligible to serve on mobile offshore units. The Coast Guard is considering whether to discontinue issuing merchant mariner credentials endorsed as AB–MOU. Under the proposed cancellation, mariners currently holding a credential endorsed as AB–MOU would be able to continue to serve under the authority of their existing credential until that credential expires. Upon these mariners’ next renewal, the AB–MOU endorsement would be converted to one of the endorsements explicitly authorized by 46 U.S.C. 7306(b) and 46 CFR 12.05–1. As a default, the endorsement would be converted to AB—Limited unless the applicant’s training and experience qualify the applicant for AB—Any Waters, Unlimited. Authority tkelley on DSKG8SOYB1PROD with NOTICES We issue this notice of cancellation under the authority of 5 U.S.C. 552(a). Dated: September 16, 2011. James A. Watson, Rear Admiral, U.S. Coast Guard, Director, Prevention Policy.
