Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 228 / Wednesday, December 1, 2021 / Rules and Regulations Individual CertificatesThe Coast Guards COFR database indicates that, currently, there are 26,163 COFRed vessels. Adding the 465 COFRed tank vessels greater than 100 gross tons to 300 gross tons in Regulation Cost 1
equals 26,628 COFRed vessels.
26,628 COFRed vessels 3 = 8,876
COFRed vessels per year that will require the submission of the gross tonnage measurement systems used.
Masters CertificatesAccording to the COFR database, there are currently 8
Master Certificates.
8 Master Certificates 3 = 3 Master Certificates per year that will require the submission of the gross tonnage measurement systems used for the largest vessel covered by the Application.
Fleet CertificatesAccording to the COFR database, there are currently 12
Fleet Certificates.
12 Fleet Certificates 3 = 4 Fleet Certificates per year that will require the submission of the gross tonnage measurement systems used for the largest vessel covered by the Application.
COFR Operators will also provide a copy of the tonnage certifying document, upon request. We assume that the Coast Guard will request a copy of the tonnage certifying document when there is an incident. According to incident data from the Coast Guards CIMS database, there are an average of 12 incidents per year involving vessels with COFRs and vessels that will be required to have COFRs under this rule over the five year period 20162020. We assume that for the analysis period, the number of incidents will remain constant with this average.
Reporting of reason for termination of guaranty by a guarantor.
Based on NPFC Vessel Certification Program data on the historical number of annual notices of guaranty termination by guarantors, the Coast
Guard estimates that there will be 4,000
vessels per year for the 10-year analysis period.
Reporting vessel name change and increased reporting on location of vessel when there is a change in ownership on date of change.
Based on NPFC Vessel Certification Program historical data, the Coast Guard estimates that there will be 1,000
submissions on vessel name changes and change in location when there is a change in ownership per year.
Burden of Response:
Reporting of gross tonnage measurement systems used and submission of copy of the tonnage certifying document, upon request.
Reporting the gross tonnage measurement systems used with the application and/or requests for COFR
renewal will result in a negligible burden less than one minute of time to the COFR Operator and will be completed with the Application for or request for renewal of the COFR.
Based on estimates received from COFR insurance guarantors who will submit, upon request, a copy of the tonnage certifying document on behalf of the COFR Operator, COFR Operators will require 15 minutes 0.25 hours per submission.
Reporting of reason for termination of guaranty by a guarantor.
The Coast Guard estimated that it will take 5 minutes 0.08 hours for the guarantor to add the reason why the guaranty was terminated to the information they provide to the Coast Guard already when he or she terminates a guaranty.
Reporting vessel name change and increased reporting on location of vessel when there is a change in ownership on date of change.
The Coast Guard estimated that it will take an additional 5 minutes 0.08
hours per submission to provide additional information that is not already required under the current rule.

Estimate of Total Annual Burden:
Reporting of gross tonnage measurement systems used and submission of copy of the tonnage certifying document, upon request.
As stated above in the cost benefit analysis section of the preamble, we do not quantify the cost impact of reporting the gross tonnage measurement systems used because it is negligible and is provided as part of the Application and/
or request for COFR renewal.
The cost burden associated with COFR Operators providing, upon request, their tonnage certifying document is calculated as follows:
Number submissions per year Number of hours labor cost per hour:
12 0.25 hours per submission = 3
hours 3 hours per year $36.64 per hour =
$110 per year Reporting of reason for termination of guaranty by a guarantor.
