SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On August 9, 2004, the President signed the Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation Act of 2004 (Pub. L. 108-293; the “2004 Act”). Section 701 of the 2004 Act required any self-propelled nontank vessel of 400 gross tons or greater on U.S. navigable waters to prepare and submit an oil response plan by August 8, 2005. On February 23, 2006, Change 1 to NVIC 01-05, “Interim Guidance for the Development and Review of Response Plans for Nontank Vessels,” was issued to augment previous guidance for nontank vessels preparing and submitting response plans to the U.S. Coast Guard. The NVIC was intended only to provide non-binding voluntary guidance to industry for preparing response plans. Existing plans developed in accordance with NVIC 01-05, CH-1, may not comply with the newly issued nontank vessel response plan regulations, and may require the vessel owner or operator to revise a plan in accordance with the “Nontank Vessel Response Plans and Other Response Plan Requirements” final rule, RIN 1625-AB27, promulgated on September 30, 2013 (78 FR 60100). The final rule may be viewed online at *http://Regulations.gov* under docket number USCG-2008-1070. If you do not have internet access, you can obtain a copy of the final rule by contacting the VRP Program staff at 202-732-1005, or your local U.S. Coast Guard Sector Command. This notice is issued under the authority of 5 U.S.C. 552(a). Dated: March 31, 2014. J.C. Burton, Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Director, Inspections and Compliance.
