U.S. Coast Guard, NAVIGATION RULES, INTERNATIONAL-INLAND
INTRODUCTION
International Rules
The International Rules in this book were formalized in the
Convention on the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions
at Sea, 1972, and became effective on July 15, 1977. The Rules
(commonly called 72 COLREGS) are part of the Convention, and
vessels flying the flags of states ratifying the treaty are bound to the
Rules. The United States has ratified this treaty and all United States
flag vessels must adhere to these Rules where applicable. President
Gerald R. Ford proclaimed 72 COLREGS and the Congress adopted
them as the International Navigational Rules Act of 1977.
The 72 COLREGS were developed by the Inter-Governmental
Maritime Consultative Organization (IMCO) which in May 1982 was
renamed the International Maritime Organization (IMO). In November
1981, IMO’s Assembly adopted 55 amendments to the 72 COLREGS
which became effective on June 1, 1983. The IMO also adopted 9
more amendments which became effective on November 19, 1989.
The International Rules in this book contain these amendments.
These Rules are applicable on waters outside of established navigational
lines of demarcation. The lines are called COLREGS
Demarcation Lines and delineate those waters upon which mariners
shall comply with the Inland and International Rules. COLREGS
Demarcation Lines are contained in this book.
Inland Rules
The Inland Rules in this book replace the old Inland Rules, Western
Rivers Rules, Great Lakes Rules, their respective pilot rules and
interpretive rules, and parts of the Motorboat Act of 1940. Many of the
old navigation rules were originally enacted in the last century.
Occasionally, provisions were added to cope with the increasing complexities
of water transportation. Eventually, the navigation rules for
United States inland waterways became such a confusing patchwork
of requirements that in the 1960’s several attempts were made to
revise and simplify them. These attempts were not successful.
