                       Subpart 91.55_Plan Approval

 

Sec.  91.55-1  General.





    (a) The following list of required plans is general in character, 

but includes all plans which normally show construction and safety 

features coming under the cognizance of the Coast Guard. In the case of 

a particular vessel, all of the plans enumerated may not be applicable, 

and it is intended that only those plans and specifications be submitted 

as will clearly show the vessel's arrangement, construction and required 

equipment.

    (b) In the following list of required plans, the items which must be 

approved by the American Bureau of Shipping for vessels classed by that 

organization are indicated by an asterisk. When prints bearing record of 

such approval by the American Bureau of Shipping are forwarded to the 

Coast Guard they will in general be accepted as satisfactory except 

insofar as the law or the Coast Guard regulations contain requirements 

which are not covered by the American Bureau of Shipping.

    (c) Plans and specifications for cargo gear shall be approved by 

either a recognized classification society or a recognized cargo gear 

organization, as specified in Sec.  91.25-25.
