MARAD Solicits Comments on Jones Act Waiver Request for Foreign-Built Vessel M/V MAMBO

MARAD is seeking public comment on a request to use the foreign-built small passenger vessel M/V MAMBO in U.S. coastwise trade under a statutory exemption for vessels carrying 12 or fewer passengers for hire. The agency will assess whether the waiver would adversely affect U.S. vessel builders or Jones Act coastwise trade businesses.
