The Coast Guard invites comments on whether these ICRs should be

performance of Departmental functions. In particular, the Coast Guard

would appreciate comments addressing: (1) The practical utility of the

Collections; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden of the

Collections; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of

information subject to the Collections; and (4) ways to minimize the

burden of the Collections on respondents, including the use of

automated collection techniques or other forms of information

technology. In response to your comments, we may revise these ICRs or

decide not to seek approval for the Collections. We will consider all

comments and material received during the comment period.

Information Collection Requests

1. Title: Security Zones, Regulated Navigation Areas, and Safety

Zones.

OMB Control Number: 1625-0020.

Summary: The Coast Guard collects this information only when

someone seeks a security zone, regulated navigation area, or safety

zone. It uses the information to assess the need to establish one of

these areas.

Need: Section 1226 and 1231 of 33 U.S.C. and 50 U.S.C. 191 and 195,

and parts 6 and 165 of 33 CFR give the Coast Guard Captain of the Port

(COTP) the authority to designate security zones in the U.S. for as

long as the COTP deems necessary to prevent damage or injury. Section

1223 of 33 U.S.C. authorizes the Coast Guard to prescribe rules to

control vessel traffic in areas he or she deems hazardous because of

reduced visibility, adverse weather, or vessel congestion. Section 1225

of 33 U.S.C. authorizes the Coast Guard to establish rules to allow the

designation of safety zones where access is limited to authorized

persons, vehicles, or vessels to protect the public from hazardous

situations.
