🔍 Key Concepts

• Aids to Navigation (ATON) discrepancy reporting responsibilities • Which federal agency is directly responsible for maintaining and correcting lighted buoys and other federal aids in U.S. waters • The difference between charting/mapping agencies and operational response agencies

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Who actually goes out and services, repairs, or replaces federal lighted buoys when they are off station or not showing the proper light? • Which organization routinely receives “ATON discrepancy” reports from mariners by radio or phone? • Which of these choices focuses mainly on charting/mapping rather than real-time on‑water fixes?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is the federal maritime safety and response agency that handles real‑time hazards to navigation. • Separate the agency that publishes charts from the one that physically maintains buoys and lights. • Consider who you would call on VHF radio underway to report a missing or malfunctioning buoy.
