Information Collection Request

    Title: Alternative Compliance for International and Inland 
Navigation Rules--33 CFR parts 81 through 89.
    OMB Control Number: 1625-0019.
    Summary: The information collected provides an opportunity for an 
owner, operator, builder, or agent of a unique vessel to present their 
reasons why the vessel cannot comply with existing International and 
Inland Navigation Rules and how alternative compliance can be achieved. 
If appropriate, a Certificate of Alternative Compliance is issued.
    Need: Certain vessels cannot comply with the International 
Navigation Rules (see 33 U.S.C. 1601 through 1608; 28 U.S.T. 3459, and 
T.I.A.S. 8587) and Inland Navigation Rules (33 U.S.C. 2071). The Coast 
Guard thus provides an opportunity for alternative compliance. However, 
it is not possible to determine whether alternative compliance is 
appropriate, or what kind of alternative procedures might be necessary, 
without this collection.
    Forms: None.
    Respondents: Vessel owners, operators, builders, and agents.
    Frequency: One-time application.
    Hour Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has decreased from 180 
hours to 171 hours a year due to a decrease in the estimated annual 
number of responses.
    Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. chapter 
35, as amended.

    Dated: April 5, 2024.
Kathleen Claffie,
Chief, Office of Privacy Management, U.S. Coast Guard.
