| E8-18791 | Passenger Weight and Inspected Vessel Stability Requirements | Proposed Rule | The Coast Guard proposes to amend its regulations governing the stability of passenger vessels and the maximum number of passengers that may safely be permitted on board a vessel. The average American weighs significantly more than the assumed average weight per person utilized in current regulations, and the maximum number of persons permitted on a vessel is determined by several factors, including an assumed average weight for each passenger. Updating regulations to more accurately reflect today's average weight per person will maintain intended safety levels by taking this weight increase into account. The Coast Guard is also taking this opportunity to clarify and update intact stability and subdivision and damage stability regulations. | 2008-08-20 | 2008 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2008/08/20/E8-18791/passenger-weight-and-inspected-vessel-stability-requirements | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2008-08-20/pdf/E8-18791.pdf | Homeland Security Department; Coast Guard | 227,53 | The Coast Guard proposes to amend its regulations governing the stability of passenger vessels and the maximum number of passengers that may safely be permitted on board a vessel.
