The U.S. Coast Guard is a state-owned entity headquartered in the US, founded in 1790, and operates with approximately 27,900 employees as a branch of the armed forces.
On September 10, 2026, U.S. Coast Guard East District law enforcement crews conducted 114 safety boardings and terminated seven voyages, including two illegal passenger-for-hire operations, during an ongoing Operation Safe Voyage enforcement push following an intensive surge over Labor Day weekend. Concurrently, the Coast Guard developed Navita™ by conducting user testing events and demonstrations to gather feedback and ideas from mariners on all aspects of the program. Earlier, on September 2, 2026, the U.S. Coast Guard proposed an update to its Streamlined Inspection Program (SIP), originally established in 1994. The proposed changes aim to reflect advances in digital recordkeeping, vessel maintenance systems, third-party auditing, and risk-based verification, offering an alternative company-managed approach to demonstrating compliance with U.S. vessel inspection regulations.
