01 - Certificates & Documentation › 011 - Ships Certificates › Certificate of Inspection (COI)
Issued 9 December 2021
Resolved
The statutes relating to inspection of public vessels are primarily contained in 46 U.S.C. 2101(24) and 2109.
a. 46 U.S.C. 2101(24) defines a public vessel as one that "is owned, or demise chartered, and operated by the United States Government or a government of a foreign country; and…is not engaged in commercial service."
The THOMAS G. THOMPSON is owned by the United States Navy (Office of Naval Research), operated by the University of Washington, and is not engaged in commercial service.
U.S. Navy and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) vessels as defined in 46 U.S.C. 2101(24) operated for oceanographic research are not required to be inspected and certificated by the Coast Guard. However, such vessels may be inspected and certificated upon request by the parent agency and upon an “interagency agreement to this effect.”
Without an interagency agreement, the Coast Guard does not have authority to conduct inspections, or casualty investigations on the THOMAS G. THOMPSON.
You are required to "establish" an interagency agreement between the Office of Naval Research (ONR) and the United States Coast Guard no later than December 22, 2022, when vessel's Certificate of Inspection expires.
Failure to establish an interagency inspection agreement with the Coast Guard prior to the Certificate of Inspection(COI) expiring will result in the vessel being deactivated in the Coast Guard's database. In addition, Coast Guard Sectors Puget Sound and Columbia River will not conduct COI renewal inspections without an interagency inspection agreement.
The THOMAS G. THOMPSON does not need a COI to operate as a Government owned Oceanographic Research Vessel. Failure to establish an inspection agreement will not limit vessel operations.
It is our understanding that the Office of Naval Research owns several research vessels that are operating in a similar manner. It would be beneficial to enter all ONR owned research vessels under the same interagency agreement.
If you disagree with this decision you may ask for reconsideration, or appeal this decision in accordance with 46 CFR 1.03-20.

Without an interagency agreement, the Coast Guard does not have authority or jurisdiction to conduct inspections, or casualty investigations on the THOMPSON.
You are required to "initiate" an interagency agreement between the Office of Naval Research (ONR) and the United States Coast Guard no later than November 12, 2021.
Failure to establish an interagency agreement with the Coast Guard will result in the Coast Guard withdrawing the vessel’s Certificate of Inspection (COI).
It is our understanding that the Office of Naval Research owns several research vessels that are operating in a similar manner. It would be beneficial to enter all ONR research vessels under the same interagency agreement.

Each line is an incident investigation the Coast Guard recorded with this hull among the vessels involved, with the date and the classification the Coast Guard gave it, and the bridge, lock or dam the investigation names where it names one. Involvement is not fault. The investigation narrative is not published. Source: IIR, through 2026.
Ownership record
The Coast Guard's documentation record for this hull -- the Abstract of Title,
with its owners and liens as filed -- is not in PSIX. Ask, and Maury buys it from the National
Vessel Documentation Center, files it here with its date, and every reader of this page gets it.
