SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background and Purpose
A Certificate of Alternative
Compliance, as allowed for under 33
U.S.C. 1605(c) and 33 CFR 81.18, has
been issued for the research vessel R/V
SIKULIAQ, O.N. Pending, Marinette
Marine Corporation Hull No. MMC
0650. The vessel’s primary purpose is to
conduct oceanographic research around
the world. The unique design of the
vessel did not lend itself to full
compliance with 33 CFR 84.05(a) of the
Coast Guard’s Inland Navigation Rules
and Annex I (3(a)) of the Convention on
the International Regulations for
Preventing Collisions at Sea (1972 and
1981) (COLREGS).
The Commandant, U.S. Coast Guard,
certifies that full compliance with the
applicable Inland Navigation Rules and
COLREGS would interfere with the
special functions/intent of the vessel
and would not significantly enhance the
safety of the vessel’s operation. Placing
the masthead light in the required
position would interfere with the
vessel’s science and boat/davit
operations.
The Certificate of Alternative
Compliance authorizes the R/V
SIKULIAQ to deviate from the
requirements set forth in 33 CFR
84.05(a) and COLREGS Annex I (3(a)),
and place its aft masthead light 124.7
feet from the forward masthead light,
which is less than half of the ship length
(130.75 feet).
This notice is issued under authority
of 33 U.S.C. 1605(c), and 33 CFR 81.18.
Dated: March 16, 2012.
D.P. Verfaillie,
Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Chief, Prevention
Division, By Direction of the Commander,
Ninth Coast Guard District.
