Sec. 80.507 Scope of service.
(a) A private coast station or marine utility station using telephony serves
the operational and business needs of ships including the transmission of
safety communication.
(b) In areas where environmental communications are provided by U.S.
Government stations or by public coast stations, private coast stations and
marine utility stations on shore must not duplicate that service. In other
areas, private coast stations and marine utility stations on shore may
transmit weather and hydrographic information required for the ships with
which they normally communicate. Private coast stations may provide
environmental communication service in areas where adequate service is not
available.
(c) Each marine utility station on shore must be operated as a private coast
station except that it may be operated at temporary unspecified locations.
Marine utility stations on ships are operated as ship stations.
(d) Each private coast station is authorized by rule to use hand-held marine
radios in the vicinity of the station's fixed transmitter site on those
frequencies assigned to the private coast station. Hand-held communications
must conform to those normally permitted under a marine utility station
authorization and must be limited to contact with the associated private
coast station and ship stations in the vicinity of the private coast
station.
