46 U.S.C. 4310 and 33 CFR part 179
require manufacturers of boats and certain items of associated
equipment to provide reports to the Coast Guard when their products
fail to comply with an applicable Federal safety standard or
contain defects which create a substantial risk of personal injury
to the public.
This is an ADJUSTMENT due to an
increase in burden. This increase is due to a correction from the
previous renewal submission. Because of the error in ROCIS
previously submitted, although there have been fewer recall
campaigns in the past three years, it will show as an increase.
This is partially a function of the number of boats that fail
compliance testing at the Coast Guard test facility. It is also a
function of economic forces; in a down economy there are fewer boat
manufacturers and in turn a fewer number of recalls. There has been
no change to the information being collected.
