<body>
<p>The Coast Guard reviewed the public input received in response to its January 2021, ANPRM on a possible new safety management system (SMS) for passenger and small passenger vessels. This proposed rulemaking would outline new SMS regulations for small passenger vessels (SPVs) meeting the statutory definition of a covered small passenger vessel in line with the 2010 and 2020 Coast Guard Authorization Acts.&nbsp; Under this proposed rulemaking, all SPVs on oceans or coastwise routes, or having overnight accommodations for passengers, would be required to implement an SMS conforming to the requirements of a newly developed SPV SMS or an accepted alternative.</p>
