The
New Jersey Maritime Pilot and Docking Pilot Commission proposes
amendments and new rules to existing regulations
The
New Jersey Maritime Pilot and Docking Pilot Commission is proposing
amendments and new rules for N.J.A.C. 16:64, the rules governing
the licensure and regulation of Maritime Pilots and Docking Pilots
in the State of New Jersey.
These
rules provide for the better governance of pilot and pilots operations
by the Commission and were made necessary by the adoption, in
2004, of amendments to N.J.S.A. 12:8-1, the statute governing
the Commission. Under the proposal, the Commission establishes
a regulatory structure for a new class of pilots, docking pilots.
The
proposed rule appeared in the May 16, 2005 issue of the New
Jersey Register . The public has until July 15, 2005
to comment on the proposal. Persons wishing to comment
on the proposal must provide their comments in writing to Timothy
J. Dacey, President, The New Jersey Maritime Pilot and Docking
Pilot Commission, One Penn Plaza East, 9 th Floor, Newark, NJ
07105. Fax (973) 491-4352. Comments must be postmarked
or sent by telefacsimile on or before July 15, 2005, which is
the close of the 60-day public comment period.
Comments
submitted to the Commission on the proposed rulemaking are public
records and are available for public inspection by prior appointment
during normal Commission business hours
