Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 96 / Thursday, May 17, 2018 / Notices
(1) Are there regulations that have
become unnecessary, ineffective, or are
no longer justified, and if so what are
they (e.g., vessel equipment, manning,
or reporting requirements)?
(2) Are there rules or reporting
requirements that have become outdated
and, if so, how can they be modernized
to better accomplish their objective?
(3) Are there requirements (e.g.
flagging, certification, or training rules)
that could be streamlined, reduced, or
provided in an easier-to-access manner,
such as online training and
certification?
(4) Are there rules from different
agencies that involve similar,
overlapping activities such as training,
drills, or inspections that might be
consolidated or coordinated to reduce
the regulatory burden on the industry?
(5) Are there reporting or other
information collection requirements
imposed by multiple regulatory agencies
that involve similar, overlapping
reporting that might be consolidated or
coordinated to reduce the regulatory
burden on the industry?
(6) Are there rules or reporting
requirements imposed by the United
States and other countries—especially
Canada and Mexico—that are
inconsistent with one another to the
point of creating barriers to commerce?
Are there reporting requirements
between Canada and the United States,
particularly on the Great Lakes, that are
similar to the point that the two
countries may be able to share
information, to the extent permissible
by law, to reduce the burden on
industry?
(7) Are there rules that have not
achieved their intended purpose or
otherwise not operating as well as
expected such that a modified, or
different approach at lower cost should
be considered?
(8) Are there rules that are preventing
or creating barriers to the adoption of
new, innovative technologies in the
maritime industry?
(9) Are there rules preventing,
curtailing, or causing the decision to
outsource maritime related activities
that would otherwise add value to the
domestic economy? What types of
economically beneficial maritime
activities might be animated if these
rules were abolished?
(10) Do agencies currently collect
information that they do not need or use
effectively?
(11) Are there regulations, reporting
requirements, or regulatory processes
that are unnecessarily complicated that
could be made more efficient?
(12) Are there rules or reporting
requirements that have been overtaken

by technological developments? Can
new technologies be leveraged to
modify, streamline, or do away with
existing regulatory or reporting
requirements?
(13) How can agencies that regulate
the maritime sector best reduce
regulatory costs while achieving the
agencies’ statutory objectives, and how
can they best identify those rules that
might be modified, streamlined, or
repealed?
(14) What factors should agencies
consider in selecting and prioritizing
rules and reporting requirements for
reform?
(15) How can agencies obtain and
analyze accurate, objective information
and data about the costs and benefits of
existing regulations? Are there existing
sources of data to use to evaluate the
current effects of regulations?
This RFI is meant to inform agencies’
development of regulatory reform
proposals. OIRA intends to make all
submissions publicly available on
www.regulations.gov.
