46 U.S.C. § 7512 - Requirements of electronic merchant mariner credentialing system

Text

(a) Definition of Merchant Mariner Credential.— In this section, the term “merchant mariner credential” means a merchant mariner license, certificate, or document that the Secretary is authorized to issue pursuant to this title.

(b) Necessary Considerations.— In implementing any electronic merchant mariner credentialing system for purposes of this chapter, the Secretary shall consider how to allow, to the maximum extent practicable—

(1) the electronic submission of the components of merchant mariner credential applications (such as sea service documentation, professional qualifications, course completion certificates, safety and suitability documents, and medical records) and course approval requests;

(2) the direct electronic and secure submission of—

(A) sea service verification documentation from employers;

(B) course completion certificates from training providers; and

(3) the electronic processing and evaluation of information for the issuance of merchant mariner credentials and course approvals, including the capability for the Secretary to complete remote evaluation of information submitted through the system.

(c) Access to Data.— The Secretary shall ensure that the Maritime Administration and other Federal agencies, as authorized by the Secretary, have access to anonymized and aggregated data from the electronic system described in subsection (b) and that such data include, at a minimum—

(1) the total amount of sea service for individuals with a valid merchant mariner credential;

(2) the number of mariners with valid merchant mariner credentials for each rating, including the capability to filter data based on credential endorsements;

(3) demographic information including age, gender, and region or address;

(4) the estimated times for the Coast Guard to process merchant mariner credential applications, mariner medical certificates, and course approvals;

(5) the number of providers approved to provide training for purposes of this part and, for each such training provider, the number of classes taken by individuals with, or applying for, a merchant mariner credential; and

(6) if applicable, the branch of the uniformed services (as defined in section 101(a) of title 10) and duty status of applicants for a merchant mariner credential.

(d) Privacy Requirements.— The Secretary shall collect the information required under subsection (b) in a manner that protects the privacy rights of individuals who are the subjects of such information.

(Added Pub. L. 119–60, div. G, title LXXIII, § 7301(g)(4), Dec. 18, 2025, 139 Stat. 1757.)
