Information Collection Request


1. Title: Periodic Gauging and Engineering Analyses for Certain

Tank Vessels Over 30 Years Old.

OMB Control Number: 1625-0101.

Summary: The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 required the issuance of

regulations related to the structural integrity of tank vessels,

including periodic gauging of the plating thickness of tank vessels

over 30 years old. This collection of information is used to verify the

structural integrity of older tank vessels.

Need: Title 46 U.S.C. section 3703 authorizes the Coast Guard to

prescribe regulations related to tank vessels, including design,

construction, alteration, repair, and maintenance. Title 46 CFR section

31.10-21a prescribes the regulations related to periodic gauging and

engineering analyses for certain tank vessels over 30 years old.

Forms: None.

Respondents: Owners and operators of certain tank vessels.

Frequency: Every 5 years.

Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has decreased from 13,688

hours to 9,918 hours a year.

2. Title: National Response Resource Inventory.

OMB Control Number: 1625-0102.

Summary: The information is needed to improve the effectiveness of

deploying response equipment in the event of an oil spill. It may also

be used in the development of contingency plans.

Need: Section 4202 of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-

380) requires the Coast Guard to compile and maintain a comprehensive

list of spill removal equipment. This collection helps fulfill that

requirement.

Forms: None.

Respondents: Oil spill removal organizations.

Frequency: On occasion.

Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has increased from 1,236

hours to 1,296 hours a year.

3. Title: Mandatory Ship Reporting System for the Northeast and

Southeast Coasts of the United States.

OMB Control Number: 1625-0103.

Summary: The information is needed to reduce the number of ship

collisions with endangered northern right whales. Coast Guard rules at

33 CFR part 169 establish two mandatory ship-reporting systems off the

northeast and southeast coasts of the United States.

Need: The collection involves ships' reporting by radio to a shore-

based authority when entering the area covered by the reporting system.

The ship will receive, in return, information to reduce the likelihood

of collisions between themselves and northern right whales--an

endangered species--in the areas established with critical-habitat

designation.

Forms: None.

Respondents: Operators of certain vessels.

Frequency: On occasion.

Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has decreased from 226 hours

to 211 hours a year.


Dated: January 21, 2009.

D.T. Glenn,

Rear Admiral, U.S. Coast Guard Assistant Commandant for Command,

Control, Communications, Computers and Information Technology.
