Coast Guard September 19, 2018 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Outer Continental Shelf Activities
Document Number: 2018-20378
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2018-09-19
Agency: Coast Guard, Department of Homeland Security
The Coast Guard is withdrawing the proposed rule entitled ``Outer Continental Shelf Activities'' that we published on December 7, 1999. The Coast Guard is withdrawing this proposed rule due to the passage of time, advances in technology, and changes in industry practices that have rendered the proposed rule obsolete.
Ballast Water Management-Annual Reporting Requirement
Document Number: 2018-20374
Type: Rule
Date: 2018-09-19
Agency: Coast Guard, Department of Homeland Security
The Coast Guard is eliminating the requirement for certain vessels that operate on voyages exclusively within a single Captain of the Port Zone to submit an Annual Ballast Water Summary Report for calendar year 2018. We view this current reporting requirement as unnecessary for us to analyze and understand ballast water management practices. This final rule will reduce the administrative burden on this regulated population of U.S. non-recreational vessels equipped with ballast tanks.
