Consolidation of Redundant Coast Guard Boat Stations Coast Guard, DHS.
Request for comments.

AGENCY:

We are requesting your comments on the planned consolidation of redundant Coast Guard boat stations.
Many stations were established at a time when boats lacked engines and were powered by oars and paddles. With modern boat operating speeds and improved direction finding technology, many calls for Coast Guard assistance can be responded to by multiple units significantly faster than when these boat

ACTION:

stations were first established. The combination of significantly improved response times, along with an overall reduction in rescue calls due to boating safety improvements throughout the nation, has resulted in a number of boat stations becoming redundant. This consolidation will result in a more robust response system by increasing staffing levels and capacity at select nearby boat stations. Such a consolidation creates synergy and more opportunities for boat operators to properly train instead of missing training opportunities while standing ready to respond to calls that do not come.
DATES: Written comments and related material may be submitted to the Coast Guard personnel specified below. Your comments and related material must reach the Coast Guard on or before August 3, 2021.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG
20210238 using the Federal rulemaking portal at https
www.regulations.gov. See the Public Participation and Request for Comments portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further instructions on submitting comments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

II. Background and Purpose In October of 2017, the GAO issued report GAO189, titled Actions Needed to Close Stations Identified as Overlapping and Unnecessarily Duplicative. This GAO report, a copy of which is in the docket for this notice, recommends the consolidation of 18
boat stations. Due to environmental and operational factors, the Coast Guard is not considering all 18 boat stations identified in the GAO report for consolidation this year. Instead, we anticipate consolidating four stations, with implementation notionally scheduled for fiscal year 2022. These stations have been identified because there are other units nearby capable of responding to cases in these areas, and because these four stations respond to a low number of cases. We do not anticipate any adverse effect on Coast Guard response capability. We expect

enhanced proficiency of boat operators as well as a less complicated response system.
III. Discussion The following seasonal stations, Stations-Small Scituate, MA; Holland, MI; North Superior, MN; and Beach Haven, NJ; have been identified for consolidation with neighboring stations.
These are seasonal stations are detached subunits of larger parent stations.
This consolidation is expected to result in a more robust response system by increasing staffing levels and capacity at select nearby boat stations.
Such a consolidation creates synergy and more opportunities for boat operators to properly train.
