specific suggestions of ways the agency
can better achieve its statutory and
regulatory objectives in light of the
executive orders cited.
• Commenters should provide
specific data that document the costs,
burdens, and benefits of existing
requirements or programs or proposed
changes to them, to the extent they are
available.
The following questions might help
guide your comments and suggestions.
Given the Coast Guard’s current
missions and statutory authority:
1. Do you have suggestions for
changes to our current programs,
regulations, or policies that would
combat climate change or bolster
resilience to the impacts of climate
change or adapt to its impacts, such as
sea level rise?
2. What do you think the primary
implications of climate change are for
our mission areas?
3. How will climate change affect
Coast Guard programs, missions,
regulations, and policies in the future?
4. How might the Coast Guard orient
or re-orient its efforts to acquire
information about the effects of climate
change, and how might it best
disseminate that information?
5. How do you think the Coast Guard
can advance the objectives of
environmental justice?
6. Are you aware of any new or
emerging technologies appropriate for
use in maritime facilities or other
industry assets that we should consider
when exploring alternatives to address
climate change?
7. Which Coast Guard mission areas
do you think are most likely to be
affected by climate change? How would
they be affected?
8. What do you think are the most
crucial challenges we will face to
address climate change in our programs,
missions, regulations, and policies?
9. Do our existing regulations
unjustifiably impede or fail to support
the development and use of
technologies or best practices that
would help us address climate change?
10. Are our regulations restrictive on
the use of alternative fuels that produce
fewer harmful emissions? If so, how?
What, specifically, might we do to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions?
11. Do our current polices, such as
NVICs or other guidance documents,
impede or fail to support the
development and use of technologies or
best practices to address climate
change? If so, how?
12. Is the process of requesting a
determination of equivalency to use an
alternative approach to regulatory

requirements that might address climate
change burdensome?
13. What regulatory, policy, or other
incentives could the Coast Guard
provide to encourage development and
use of technologies or best practices in
the marine transportation system to
combat and respond to climate change?
14. Are there current Coast Guard
regulations, guidance, policies, or
processes that contribute to climate
change? If so, please explain which ones
and how.
15. What sources of existing data or
studies can Coast Guard use to evaluate
the economic impact—positive or
negative—from reducing the
environmental footprint of USCG
programs, regulations, or policies with
regards to climate change?
16. What do you expect would be the
positive or negative environmental
results of the Coast Guard addressing
climate change in the maritime domain,
particularly in sensitive areas such as
the Arctic and U.S. coastal zones?
17. Are there Coast Guard programs,
regulations, or policies that do not
bolster resilience to the impacts of
climate change, particularly for those
disproportionately impacted by climate
change, and, if so, what are they? How
can those programs, regulations, or
policies be modified, expanded,
streamlined, or repealed to bolster
resilience to the impacts of climate
change?
18. Do you have any suggestions for
any changes to the Coast Guard’s Arctic
strategy or any Coast Guard Arctic
programs, such as ice breaking,
mapping, and charting missions that
might bolster the Coast Guard’s ability
to combat and respond to climate
change?
In addition to these general questions,
the Coast Guard seeks any other input
on the programs and missions described
above that allows the Coast Guard,
within our statutory authorities, to
combat or respond to the climate crisis
and adapt to its impacts on the maritime
domain. This request for information is
used solely for information gathering
purposes and the responses to this RFI
do not bind the Coast Guard to any
further actions related to the response.
