Information Collection Request
Title: Standard Numbering System for Undocumented Vessels.
OMB Control Number: 1625-0108.
Type of Request: Extension of a previously approved collection.
Respondents: Owners of all undocumented vessels propelled by
machinery. ``Owners'' may include individuals or households, non-profit
organizations, and small businesses (e.g., liveries that offer
recreational vessels for rental by the public) or other for-profit
organizations.
Abstract: The Standard Numbering System (SNS) collects information
on undocumented vessels and vessel owners operating on waters subject
to the jurisdiction of the United States. Federal, State, and local law
enforcement agencies use information daily or as warranted from the

investigations. Since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the
United States, the need has increased for identification of
undocumented vessels to meet port security and other missions to
safeguard the homeland.
Forms: None.
Burden Estimate: The estimated burden remains the same at 286,458
hours a year.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C.
chapter 35, as amended.
Dated: February 7, 2011.
