Information Collection Request Title: Security Zones, Regulated Navigation Areas, and Safety Zones. OMB Control Number: 1625-0020. Summary: The Coast Guard collects this information only when someone seeks a security zone, regulated navigation area, or safety zone. It uses the information to assess the need to establish one of these areas. Need: Section 1226 and 1231 of 33 U.S.C. and 50 U.S.C. 191 and 195, and parts 6 and 165 of 33 CFR give the Coast Guard Captain of the Port (COTP) the authority to designate security zones in the U.S. for as long as the COTP deems necessary to prevent damage or injury. Section 1223 of 33 U.S.C. authorizes the Coast Guard to prescribe rules to control vessel traffic in areas he or she deems hazardous because of reduced visibility, adverse weather, or vessel congestion. Section 1225 of 33 U.S.C. authorizes the Coast Guard to establish rules to allow the designation of safety zones where access is limited to authorized persons, vehicles, or vessels to protect the public from hazardous situations. Forms: Not applicable. Respondents: Federal, State, and local government agencies, owners and operators of vessels and facilities. Frequency: On occasion. Hour Burden Estimate: The estimated burden has decreased from 413 hours to 178 hours a year due to a decrease in the estimated annual number of respondents. Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, as amended. Dated: October 16, 2017. James D. Roppel, Acting Chief, Office of Information Management, U.S. Coast Guard.
