🔍 Key Concepts

• Allision reporting requirements when a vessel strikes a fixed aid to navigation in U.S. waters • Who the proper Coast Guard authority is for marine casualties and damaged aids to navigation • Whether the report must be made immediately/without delay or can wait until later

💭 Think About

• Think about which U.S. agency is responsible for aids to navigation and marine casualty investigations rather than construction projects or port administration. • Consider whether the law allows you to delay reporting an incident that could affect other mariners’ safety. • Ask yourself: in practice, if an aid to navigation is damaged, who needs to know right away so they can broadcast warnings and arrange repairs?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 33 CFR who has authority over federal aids to navigation and how damage must be reported. • Check which office title matches the Coast Guard’s marine inspection and casualty investigation function. • Eliminate any choice that would cause a dangerous delay in notifying authorities about a potentially misleading or missing aid.
