BILLING CODE 4140–01–P
Consolidation of Redundant Coast
Guard Boat Stations
Coast Guard, DHS.
ACTION: Request for comments.
AGENCY:
We are requesting your
comments on the planned consolidation
of redundant Coast Guard boat stations.
Many stations were established at a time
when boats lacked engines and were
powered by oars and paddles. With
modern boat operating speeds and
improved direction finding technology,
many calls for Coast Guard assistance
can be responded to by multiple units
significantly faster than when these boat
stations were first established. The
combination of significantly improved
response times, along with an overall
reduction in rescue calls due to boating
safety improvements throughout the
nation, has resulted in a number of boat
stations becoming redundant. This
consolidation will result in a more
robust response system by increasing
staffing levels and capacity at select
nearby boat stations. Such a
consolidation creates synergy and more
opportunities for boat operators to
properly train instead of missing
training opportunities while standing
ready to respond to calls that do not
come.
SUMMARY:
Written comments and related
material may be submitted to the Coast
Guard personnel specified. Your
comments and related material must
reach the Coast Guard on or before April
14, 2020.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments
identified by docket number USCG–
2020–0042 using the Federal
rulemaking portal at https://
www.regulations.gov. See the ‘‘Public
Participation and Request for
Comments’’ portion of the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for
further instructions on submitting
comments.

II. Background and Purpose
In October of 2017, the Government
Accountability Office issued report
GAO–18–9, titled ‘‘Actions Needed to
Close Stations Identified as Overlapping
and Unnecessarily Duplicative.’’ This
GAO report recommended the
consolidation of eighteen boat stations.
Due to environmental and operational
factors, the Coast Guard is not
considering all eighteen boat stations
identified in the GAO report for
consolidation. Instead, we anticipate
consolidating five stations, with
implementation notionally scheduled
for fiscal year 2021. These stations have
been identified because there are other
units nearby capable of responding to
cases in these areas, and because these
five stations respond to a low number of
cases. We do not anticipate any adverse
effect on Coast Guard response
capability. We expect an improvement
to the proficiency of boat operators as
well as a less complicated response
system.
III. Discussion
Station Oxford and Stations-Small
Fishers Island, Shark River, Roosevelt
Inlet, and Salem have been identified
for consolidation with neighboring
stations.
IV. Public Participation and Request for
