The Coast Guard announces
that the Eighth Coast Guard District’s
Prevention Division has issued
certificates of alternative compliance
from the International Regulations for
Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972 (72
COLREGS), to vessels of special
construction or purpose that cannot
fully comply with the light, shape, and
sound signal provisions of 72 COLREGS
without interfering with the vessel’s
design and construction. We are issuing
this notice because its publication is
required by statute. This notification of
issuance of certificates of alternative
compliance promotes the Coast Guard’s
marine safety mission.
DATES: These Certificates of Alternative
Compliance were issued between April

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
United States is signatory to the
International Maritime Organization’s

COLREGS. Under statutory law,
however, specified 72 COLREGS
provisions are not applicable to a vessel
of special construction or purpose if the
Coast Guard determines that the vessel

design and construction. We are issuing this notice because its
publication is required by statute. This notification of issuance of
certificates of alternative compliance promotes the Coast Guard's
