Background
On January 30, 2015, the Coast Guard published a final rule that revised or amended existing notice of arrival and automatic identification system requirements. 80 FR 5282. The final rule delayed the effective date of 33 CFR 160.204(a)(5)(vii), 160.205, and 160.208(a) and (c) because these sections contain collection-of-
information provisions that require approval by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501-3520. On August 5, 2015, OMB approved the collection assigned OMB Control Number 1625-0100, Advance Notice of Vessel Arrival. Accordingly, we announce that sections 33 CFR 160.204(a)(5)(vii), 160.205, and 160.208(a) and (c) are effective August 20, 2015. The approval for this collection of information expires on February 28, 2017.
We have not yet received approval from OMB regarding the 1625-0112 collection of information, Enhanced Maritime Domain Awareness via Electronic Transmission of Vessel Transit Data, which relates to automatic identification system requirements in the January 2015 final rule (80 FR 5282).
This document is issued under the authority of 33 U.S.C. 1231.
Dated: August 14, 2015.

Director of Commercial Regulations and Standards, U.S. Coast Guard.
