        <RULE_TITLE>Small Passenger Vessel Inspection and Certification (CGD 85-080)</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This rulemaking would revise subchapters S and T and create a new subchapter K to reflect statutory changes, incorporate new technology, and improve safety requirements. Among the changes contemplated would be a change in inspection intervals, drydocking intervals, lifesaving equipment requirements, and fire protection requirements. This action is considered significant because it affects a broad class of vessels, and there has been substantial public interest evidenced.]]></ABSTRACT>

        <ADDITIONAL_INFO>On January 13, 1994 the Coast Guard published a Supplemental Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (SNPRM) containing the proposed completed revision of the regulations governing small passenger vessels. A new Subchapter K was introduced for small passenger vessels carrying more than 150 passengers or more than 49 overnight passengers. Seven public hearings were held throughout the country and the comment period closed June 13, 1994. An Interim Final Rule (IFR) will be published adopting many of the solutions suggested in the comments. It will provide an opportunity for public comment on those solutions. ^PANALYSIS:  Regulatory Evaluation, 01/30/89, 54 FR 4412^PRFA:  N</ADDITIONAL_INFO>
