Title: ●Vessel Documentation User Fees--Annual Renewal Fee 
Abstract: The Coast Guard proposes to add to our regulations a requirement to include an additional fee for annual renewals of vessel documentation. The purpose of this rulemaking is to cover the operating costs of providing renewal services. As required by the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101-508) and based on criteria in 31 USC 9701, the Coast Guard must recover, to the extent of existing authority, current operating and overhead costs associated with vessel documentation, filing, and recording activities under 46 USC chapters 121 and 313. The Coast Guard reviewed current fees in 46 CFR part 67 and determined that the fees need to be adjusted to accommodate changes in the cost of providing the services. These fees have not been adjusted since 1993.
