Title: ●Notice of Arrival on the Outer Continental Shelf 
Abstract: Currently, foreign vessels arriving at a place on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) need not provide any advance notice to any federal agency. In order to improve Maritime Domain Awareness and security on the OCS, the rule would require each foreign vessel intending to arrive at a place on the OCS to provide the National Vessel Movement Center (NVMC) with an advance notice of arrival (NOA). The data to be included in the notices, and the times at which the notices must be submitted, would be similar to the existing requirements, in 33 CFR part 160, for NOAs from ships arriving at a port or place in the United States.
