  12. Facility Plan Review Process - Process • Tools & Aids • Three stage review process • Stage 1 - Cursory review to flush out poor reports • Stage 2 – Detailed review of plan to see if it meets the regulations. • Stage 3 – COTP review • Validate portions of plan that require local knowledge. • Verify assessment information against physical characteristics.

  13. Facility Plan Review Process – FSP Observations • Typically, there is an insufficient amount of detail in the FSP on the following: • Access control • Definition of restricted areas within the facility • Coordination between vessels and facilities. • At elevated MARSEC Levels - What will the additional security personnel will be doing? • Define increased number of guards • Define Frequency of patrols • Screen per latest MARSEC Directive

  14. Vessel Plan Review Process • VSP review process is diagrammed in a flowchart contained in the VSP NVIC (NVIC 04-03) • Three-stage review process • First, login and enter the relevant information into MISLE • Documents plan receipt and establishes an open inspection case w/MISLE Activity number • Stage I: quickly review, identify, and return any plan that is not complete • Goal is to return incomplete plans to the submitter within 30 days of receipt • Stage II: process involves comprehensive review against reg requirements • Stage III: Coast Guard’s quality assurance review, including plan approval.

  15. Alternative Security Program Review Process (for domestic vessels on domestic routes) • Vessel owner/operator submits letter to MSC stating that vessels will comply with a specific ASP approved by G-MP • MSC’s role after receiving the owner’s ASP certification letter: • Enter relevant information into MISLE • Verify the stated ASP is applicable to the vessel type • Verify the owner or operator is a member of the stated ASP organization • Verify SOLAS is not applicable to the vessel • Generate ASP acknowledgement/acceptance letter (Copy attached) • Acceptance based on implementation of the ASP in its’ entirety, otherwise the vessel owner or operator will need to submit a VSP • Scan MSC letter & owner’s letter(s) into MISLE, mail letter to owner
