The USCG added that, if we do authorize INMARSAT-E EPIRBs, we should amend section 80.1085(a)(6) of the rules to mandate annual testing, as is required for 406.0-406.1 MHz EPIRBs. The Commission invited interested parties to address whether the conditions set forth above are necessary and sufficient, and to suggest additional conditions. Discussion. We agree with the commenters that INMARSAT-E EPIRBs represent an important tool for improving maritime safety and have gained international acceptance, and that
