Foreign-built 12-passenger vessel review
The Maritime Administration (MARAD) received a request to allow the foreign-built vessel M/V Lexington to engage in U.S. coastwise trade carrying no more than twelve passengers for hire. MARAD is publishing this notice and asking for comments to decide whether that proposed use would have an adverse effect on U.S. vessel builders or U.S. coastwise trade businesses that use U.S.-built vessels.
