Proposed Termination of U.S. Coast Guard Rebroadcast of HYDROLANT and HYDROPAC Information

The United States Coast Guard may cease rebroadcasting HYDROLANT and HYDROPAC (defined below) navigational warnings from the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) over HF SITOR (defined below). There is not a requirement for the Coast Guard to rebroadcast this information, although the Coast Guard has been voluntarily doing so for a number of years, and doing so is duplicative of NGA's broadcast. The information would continue to be disseminated by the NGA. This notice requests public comment on the possibility of terminating the rebroadcast over HF SITOR.
