Coast Guard Keeps Tank Vessel Paperwork
If you own or operate a U.S. or foreign oil-carrying tank vessel, the U.S. Coast Guard has asked OMB to extend information collection OMB Control No. 1625-0036 for "Plan Approval and Records for U.S. and Foreign Tank Vessels Carrying Oil in Bulk" without changing the rules. That keeps current safety plan and recordkeeping requirements in place and does not add new paperwork, costs, or deadlines.
