Link to an amendment published at 89 FR 102337, Dec. 17, 2024.
(a) Certain requirements of Title 46, United States Code do not apply to the employment of merchant
mariners on oceanographic research vessels. These requirements are those concerned with, among other
things, the shipment and discharge of mariners, their pay and allotments, and the adequacy of their
clothing. 46 U.S.C. 2113(2) allows exemptions of oceanographic research vessels from certain
requirements of parts B, C, F, or G of subtitle II of 46 U.S.C., upon such terms as the Secretary of the
Department of Homeland Security deems suitable. The exemptions available under this subpart are
subject to the following terms:
(1) No use of any exemption relieves the owner, charterer, managing operator, master, or individual in
charge of the vessel of other statutory responsibilities for the protection of every mariner under his
or her command.
(2) If it is presented at a reasonable time and in a reasonable manner, the master or individual in charge
must receive, consider, and appropriately address the legitimate complaint of any mariner.

corporation, or educational or governmental body or agency, the Commandant may grant exemptions
