Passenger Vessel Designs OPtimizeD fOr PrOfitability ties that risked or threatened high loss of life. Specifically the Board may elect to lead an investigation of A passenger vessel accident fire collision grounding sinking that places those on board at serious risk Avessel accident that seriously threatens port facilities for example an allision with a permanently moored vessel or high occupancy waterfront facility A cargo vessel accident that involves three or more fatalities or A multimodal marine accident that results in fatalities. In these cases when the Safety Board elects to take the lead the investigations will be conducted under established NTSB rules and procedures with the Coast Guard par- ticipating as a party to the investigation. This news release reflected in part the unease that had been cultivated in practice between the agencies over the preceding years. It also illustrated the then-NTSB priority to focus on passenger vessel safety. In 2008 the agencies entered into another MOU that replaced the 2002 version. This MOU was introduced with the following paragraph The intent of this agreement is to ensure interagency communication cooperation and coordination and to engender the de- velopment of marine safety investigation processes that will best serve the maritime community and the public at large. This agreement is not intended to limit the statutory jurisdiction of either agency or to prevent thorough investigation of marine casualties. The MOU also offered a new statement of significant marine casualty for the purposes of the MOU 1 The loss of three or more lives on a commercial passenger vessel 2 Loss of life or serious injury to twelve or more persons on any com- mercial vessel 3 The loss of a mechanically propelled commercial vessel of 1600 or more gross tons 4Any marine casualty with loss of life involving a highway bridge railroad or other shore side structure 5 Serious threat as determined by the Commandant and concurred in by the Chairman or their designees to life property or the environment by hazardous materials 6 Significant safety issues as deter- mined by the Commandant and concurred in by the Chairman or their designees relating to Coast Guard marine safety functions. This progress was demonstrated in the ongoing SS El Faro investigation. NTSB is the lead agency and responded CONTINUED ON PAGE 30
