Description
The Law Library presents the complete text of the America's Marine Highway Program (US Maritime Administration Regulation) (MARAD) (2018 Edition).
Updated as of May 29, 2018
On October 9, 2008, the Department of Transportation published an interim final rule that established America's Marine Highway Program, under which the Secretary will designate marine highway corridors and identify and support short sea transportation projects to expand domestic water transportation services as an alternative means of moving containerized and wheeled freight cargoes; mitigate the economic, environmental and energy costs of landside congestion; integrate the marine highway into the transportation planning process; and research improvements in efficiencies and environmental sustainability. This action is required by Public Law 110-140, the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. The interim final rule solicited comments, which are discussed in the “Section by Section Review” below and incorporated in this final rule. In addition, the interim final rule sought recommendations for designation of Marine Highway Corridors. This rule adopts the interim final rule, addresses Marine Highway Corridors (and continues to solicit recommendations for Marine Highway Corridor recommendations), and establishes eligibility requirements, criteria and information necessary to apply for designation as a Marine Highway Project by the Secretary of Transportation. Solicitations from applicants desiring Marine Highway Project designation will be initiated through notification in the Federal Register at a future date. This rule also sets forth the manner in which the Department of Transportation will identify and recommend solutions to impediments to expanded use of marine highways and lays the groundwork for coordinating with States, private transportation providers, and local and Tribal governments, and conducting research related to marine highway development. The program should improve system capacity and efficiency, air quality, highway safety, and national security.
