ACTION: Notice. sradovich on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES AGENCY: The United States Coast Guard (USCG), U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), and United States SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:27 Jul 01, 2016 Jkt 238001 Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) published a notice on August 18, 2015 seeking public comments on the proposed shutdown and decommissioning of 62 the then-existing 84 Nationwide Differential Global Positioning System (NDGPS) sites. After a review of the comments received, we have reduced to 37 the number of NDGPS sites to be shutdown, 9 of which are USCG Maritime sites and 28 of which are DOT inland sites. As a result of this action, the NDGPS system will remain operational with a total of 46 USCG and USACE sites available to users in the maritime and coastal regions. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions on this notice, contact CAPT Scott Smith, Coast Guard, telephone (202) 372–1545 or email scott.j.smith2@uscg.mil; or James Arnold, U.S. DOT OST–R, NDGPS Program Manager, telephone (202) 366– 8422 or email NDGPS@dot.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background and Purpose The USCG began development of the Maritime Differential Global Positioning System (MDGPS) in the late 1980s. In 1994, the USCG published a Federal Register notice (59 FR 13757; March 23, 1994) discussing the accuracy limitations in the GPS system, and informing the public that the USCG’s Differential GPS Service would be implemented for harbor and harbor approach areas by 1996. The USCG’s Maritime DGPS system used land-based reference stations to enhance the accuracy of GPS to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) harbor approach standard for near-coastal maritime navigation. Through Presidential Decision Directive NSTC–6, U.S. Global Positioning System Policy, (March 28, 1996) the President designated the U.S. Department of Transportation as the Nation’s ‘‘lead agency for all Federal civil GPS matters.’’ The Directive further required the USDOT to ‘‘develop and implement U.S. Government augmentation to the basic GPS for transportation applications.’’ The USCG’s Maritime DGPS Service was established as an PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 augmentation to GPS to aid maritime navigation in certain harbors and harbor approach areas. Enacted on October 27, 1997, Section 346 of the Department of Transportation and Related Agencies Appropriations Act of 1998, Public Law 105–66, 111 Stat. 1425, authorized the USDOT to establish, operate and manage the NDGPS system. Furthermore, section 346 authorized the Secretary to integrate the USCG’s existing Maritime DGPS reference stations with the NDGPS, and to ensure System compatibility with the Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) network, which had been independently established by the National Geodetic Survey. Pursuant to this statutory authority, the Secretary established 29 inland DGPS sites, which along with the USCG’s Maritime DGPS sites, and seven sites established by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), collectively comprised the Nationwide DGPS (NDGPS) system. Pursuant to a 1999 delegation of authority from the Secretary of Transportation (64 FR 7813; February 17, 1999), the Commandant of the USCG was designated as lead for implementation, operation, and maintenance of the NDGPS service. The Secretary retained authority for System requirements and associated responsibilities under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), and assumed the role of NDGPS sponsor and chair of the multi-agency NDGPS Policy and Implementation Team (PIT), which directs the overall management of the NDGPS system. Since its establishment in the late 1990s, several factors have contributed to the stagnation of transportationrelated use of NDGPS, including lack of a regulatory requirement for vessels to carry DGPS equipment within U.S. territorial waters, technological advances in GPS that have increased its accuracy, increased reliability of other GPS augmentation systems that do not require a second receiver, limited availability of consumer-grade DGPS radio beacon receivers, and the discontinuance of GPS Selective Availability.
