DOT/USCG RIN: 2115-AF58 Publication ID: Fall 1998 
Title: Maritime Training Course Approval Procedures (USCG-98-3824) 
Abstract: This rulemaking will permit the Coast Guard to suspend or revoke its approvals of courses for merchant mariners. Current regulations do not contain provisions to suspend or revoke course approvals. This rulemaking will affect training schools which offer Coast Guard approved courses, when those schools fail to comply with the terms of course approval. By ensuring that schools maintain uniformly high standards, this rulemaking supports the Coast Guard's Marine Safety and Environmental Protection program's goal of reducing injuries and deaths aboard commercial vessels, and reducing the amount of pollution being discharged into the marine environment, and the Coast Guard's strategic goal of protection of natural resources.
