                TITLE 33--NAVIGATION AND NAVIGABLE WATERS

 

         CHAPTER I--COAST GUARD, DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

 

PART 19_WAIVERS OF NAVIGATION AND VESSEL INSPECTION LAWS AND 

REGULATIONS \1\--Table of Contents

 

Sec. 19.15  Permits for commercial vessels handling explosives at 

military installations.



    Pursuant to the request of the Secretary of Defense in a letter 

dated October 19, 1955, made under the provisions of section 1 of the 

act of December 27, 1950 (64 Stat. 1120; 46 U.S.C., note prec. 1), I 

hereby waive in the interest of national defense compliance with the 

provisions of R.S. 4472, as amended (46 U.S.C. 170), and the regulations 

promulgated thereunder in part 146 of this chapter to the extent that no 

quantitative restrictions, based on considerations of isolation and 

remoteness, shall be required by the Coast Guard for commercial vessels 

loading or unloading explosives at the Department of Defense waterfront 

installations. This waiver shall not relieve a commercial vessel loading 

or unloading explosives at the Department of Defense waterfront 

installations from the requirement of securing a permit from the Coast 

Guard for such operations with respect to quantitative or other 

restrictions imposed by the Coast Guard on the basis of each vessel's 

ability to meet prescribed stowage and handling requirements.
