    The Coast Guard invites comments on whether this ICR should be

the requirements of Executive Order 13771, Reducing Regulation and

Previous Request for Comments

    This request provides a 30-day comment period required by OIRA. The 
Coast Guard has published the 60-day notice (84 FR 42938, August 19, 
2019) required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). That notice elicited one 
comment that stated, ``to check all policy by the owner/government 
policy to register to show more penalties from act of government'' 
which does not provide any suggestions for improving this collection of 
information. Accordingly, no changes have been made to the Collections.
