Subpart 30.30—Interim Proceduresfor Evaluating Vessel Per-sonnel Licensing and Certifi-cation Programs of ForeignCountries

SOURCE: CGD 79–081a, 45 FR 23427, Apr. 7,1980, unless otherwise noted.

§ 30.30–1 Scope and purpose.(a) This subpart contains procedures

for evaluating vessel personnel licens-ing and certification programs of for-eign countries. Evaluations are donefor countries which license or certifi-cate personnel serving on tank vesselsthat enter or operate in U.S. navigablewaters and ports.

(b) The purpose of each evaluation isto determine whether a foreign licens-ing and certification program hasstandards that are comparable to ormore stringent than U.S. standards.

(c) A determination that licensingand certification standards of a foreign

country are not comparable to or morestringent than U.S. standards will sub-ject tank vessels manned with officerslicensed by that country to the prohi-bition in 33 U.S.C. 1228(a)(5) on oper-ation with those officers in U.S. navi-gable waters and ports.

§ 30.30–3 Evaluation materials.

The materials to be submitted forevaluation must include the Englishtext of the following:

(a) All laws, decrees, orders, and reg-ulations relating to manning, training,qualification, and watchkeeping of per-sonnel on tank vessels engaged in for-eign trade.

(b) A copy of each type of license andcertificate issued by the country totank vessel personnel.

§ 30.30–5 Submission of evaluation ma-terials.

(a) The evaluation materials listed in§ 30.30–3 should be sent to Commandant(G–MOC), U.S. Coast Guard Head-quarters, 2100 Second Street, SW.,Washington, DC 20593. The materialsshould include the name and address ofthe person to whom correspondenceconcerning the evaluation can be sent.

(b) Updated materials may be sub-mitted at any time during the evalua-tion process.

§ 30.30–11 Determinations.(a) After evaluation of materials sub-

mitted in accordance with this subpart,a determination will be made as towhether the licensing and certificationprogram described by the materials hasstandards that are comparable to ormore stringent than standards set bythe regulations and laws referenced in§ 30.30–9.

(b) Notice of each determinationmade in accordance with this sectionand a brief explanation of reasonstherefor will be published in the FED-ERAL REGISTER. A copy of this noticewill also be sent to the person whosename is provided in accordance with§ 30.30–5.
