TABLE 3SUMMARY OF ENDORSED FCPSContinued Endorsed FCPs a

Current Baseline Table 4 illustrates the following discussion of our baseline analysis. In order to calculate the cost savings of this rule, and to determine our baseline industry costs, we first estimated the number of endorsed FCPs who would be applying for a merchant mariner medical certificate in any given year for the next 10 years, excluding those with medical waivers. To obtain this number, we took the total number of endorsed FCPs holding a medical certificate with or without time-limited medical waivers, 3,897, as shown in table 2. We then subtracted the number of endorsed
FCPs who submit medical certificate applications on an annual basis due to time-limited restrictions, 195. We obtained a population of 3,702 endorsed FCPs who will submit their medical certificate applications every 5 years under the proposed rule. We then divided this number 3,702 by 2, which is the application rate of FCPs who are issued medical certificates 1
application every 2 years to obtain an annual estimate of 1,851 medical certificates issued 3,702 2. However, the number of endorsed FCPs has decreased over time, at an average annual rate of 0.48 percent from 2011
2020. We incorporated this average

Growth rate %
b t = at-at-1/at-1 100
annual rate of decline in order to obtain the expected number of endorsed FCPs in a 10-year period of analysis. Column d t in table 4, Current Regulation Medical Certificate Applications With Decline, captures the affected population after applying the annual average rate of decline in column b and the application rate in column c t.
The equation for column d t is represented as d t = c t + 1 + b t for all t, where t denotes the period of time, and t is discrete and positive.
Table 4 presents the number of medical certificate applications under the baseline analysis.
