These forms are required under 33 CFR 66 & 67. The information is processed to ensure the private aid is in compliance with current regulations. Additionally, these forms provide the Coast Guard with information which can be distributed to the public to advise of new, or changes to private aids to navigation. In addition, colleting the applicant’s contact information is important because it allows the Coast Guard to contact the applicant should there be a discrepancy or mishap involving the permitted private aid to navigation. Certain discrepancies create hazards to navigation and must be responded to and immediately corrected or repaired. Forms: CG–2554, Private Aids To Navigation Application and CG–4143, Application For Class I Private Aids To Navigation On Artificial Islands and Fixed Structures. Respondents: Owners of private aids to navigation. Frequency: On occasion.
