to send written notice of its termination to all responsible persons, 

companies and vessels that have received certificates from the 

organization. In that notice, the organization must include--

    (a) A written statement explaining why the organization's 

authorization was terminated by the Coast Guard;

    (b) An explanation of the status of issued certificates;

    (c) A current list of organizations authorized by the Coast Guard to 

conduct safety management audits; and

their safety management systems transferred to another organization 

authorized to act on behalf of the U.S.
