| Marine Safety Information Bulletin Clarification of Mandatory Safety Exams for Commercial Fishing Vessels in Alaska Who does this effect? Effective October 15, 2015, the law requires completion of a mandatory dockside safety exam on certain CFVs at least once every five years. When does it need to get done by? Any affected CFV that has not successfully completed a dockside exam on or after January 1, 2013 must get an exam to be in compliance with the law. Any affected CFV found not in compliance with the safety exam requirement could be subject to civil penalty action or operational controls. What CFVs are affected by the Exam requirement? This applies to State-registered and Federally-documented CFVs that: 1) operate beyond 3 nautical miles from the territorial sea Baseline 2) operate anywhere with more than 16 persons on board (including within 3 miles of the Baseline; or 3) are fish tender vessels engaged in the Aleutian trade. Does it need to get revalidated? A CFV that successfully completed an exam after January 1, 2013 has five years from the date of that successful exam to complete another exam under the law. Who can do the Examination? The USCG has approved qualified Third Party Examiners. Alaska Survey Associates L.L.C. is an approved entity with Qualified Surveyors that can do this Examination. Where is the Examination done? Alaska Survey Associates L.L.C. will dispatch an examiner to your location. When can this be scheduled?

With this list and a little work ahead of time with your crew you should be able to pass without problem. What else do you do?
