As a courtesy to our audience, Maritime Commons will provide a daily compilation of nationally-relevant Federal Register Notices. To provide comments for the public record, follow the Federal Register link for each individual notice. Please note, the Coast Guard cannot respond to comments on these notices outside of the Federal Register.

The Coast Guard posted a notice inviting comments from Federal, State, local government agencies, owners and operators of vessels and facilities on security zones, regulated navigation areas and safety zones.

The Coast Guard collects this information only when someone seeks a security zone, regulated navigation area, or safety area. It uses the information to assess the need to establish one of these areas.

View the Federal Register notice for further details and information on how to comment.

In particular, the Coast Guard would appreciate comments addressing:
(1) The practical utility of the Collections;
(2) The accuracy of the estimated burden of the Collections;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of information subject to the Collections;
(4) Ways to minimize the burden of the Collections on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

All comments and related material must be submitted on or before September 2, 2014.
