        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Coast Guard is harmonizing structural and performance standards for inflatable recreational personal flotation devices (PFDs) with industry consensus standards.  This rulemaking will also slightly modify regulatory text in anticipation of a potential rulemaking addressing the population for which PFDs are approved, but this rulemaking does not change the scope of that current population.]]></ABSTRACT>
