Title: ●Offshore Supply Vessels of 6000 GT ITC or More 
Abstract: The Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2010 removed the size limit on offshore supply vessels (OSVs), allowing these vessels to exceed 6,000 gross tons under the International Convention on Tonnage (GT ITC). The Act also directed the Coast Guard to issue, as soon as is practicable, an interim rule to implement section 617 of the Act and to ensure the safe carriage of oil, hazardous substances, and individuals in addition to the crew on these vessels. Accordingly, the Coast Guard's interim rule will address design, manning, carriage of personnel, and related topics for OSVs of 6,000 GT ITC or more. This rulemaking will meet the requirements of the Act and will support the Coast Guard's mission of marine safety, security, and stewardship.
