authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. 4, 303, 309,

Needs and Uses: The requirements
contained in 47 CFR 80.59 of the
Commission’s rules are necessary to
implement the provisions of section
362(b) of the Communications Act of
934, as amended, which require the
Commission to inspect the radio
installation of large cargo ships and
certain passenger ships at least once a
year to ensure that the radio installation
is in compliance with the requirements
of the Communications Act.
Further, section 80.59(d) states that
the Commission may, upon a finding
that the public interest would be served,
grant a waiver of the annual inspection
required by section 362(b) of the
Communications Act of 1934, for a
period of not more than 90 days for the
sole purpose of enabling the United
States vessel to complete its voyage and
proceed to a port in the United States
where an inspection can be held. An
information application must be
submitted by the ship’s owner, operator
or authorized agent. The application
must be submitted to the Commission’s
District Director or Resident Agent in
charge of the FCC office nearest the port
of arrival at least three days before the
ship’s arrival. The application must
provide specific information that is in
rule section 80.59.
Additionally, the Communications
Act requires the inspection of small
passenger ships at least once every five
years.
The Safety Convention (to which the
United States is a signatory) also
requires an annual inspection.
The Commission allows FCC-licensed
technicians to conduct these
inspections. FCC-licensed technicians
certify that the ship has passed an
inspection and issue a safety certificate.
These safety certificates, FCC Forms
806, 824, 827 and 829 indicate that the
vessel complies with the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended and the Safety Convention.
These technicians are required to
provide a summary of the results of the

inspection in the ship’s log that the
inspection was satisfactory.
Inspection certificates issued in
accordance with the Safety Convention
must be posted in a prominent and
accessible place on the ship (third party
disclosure requirement).
