§ 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.
