1625-AC22 201410 The Regulatory Plan and the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 1625 U.S. Coast Guard USCG 1600 Department of Homeland Security DHS Great Lakes Pilotage Rates--2015 Annual Review and Adjustment

The Coast Guard proposes rate adjustments for pilotage services on the Great Lakes, which were last amended in March 2014. The proposed adjustments would establish new base rates and are made in accordance with a full ratemaking procedure. The proposed update reflects the Coast Guard exercising the discretion provided by Step 7 of the Appendix A methodology. The result is an upward adjustment to match the rate increase of the Canadian Great Lakes Pilotage Authority. We also propose surcharges for pilotage associations to recoup training costs.
