Title: Commercial Diving Operations (USCG-1998-3786)  
Abstract: This project involves reviewing and updating the commercial diving regulations, which were first adopted in 1978. A review of the commercial diving regulations is needed to determine what parts should be updated or changed based on the current standards of safety, technology, and industry practices and to evaluate and minimize any impact of the rules upon small entities. The project supports the Coast Guard Marine Safety, Security and Environmental Protection Program's goal to reduce deaths and injuries on U.S. commercial vessels and the Coast Guard's strategic goal of maritime safety.
