NOTE: The District 8 Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) OCMI is responsible for inspecting and certificating offshore facilities operating in the Gulf of America. The three facility types include: Floating OCS Facilities (FOFs), Fixed Facilities, and Mobile Offshore Drilling Units (MODUs). If you have questions or inquiries about a vessel that is not of one of the three facility types above, the D8 OCS OCMI is not the correct OCMI to contact. There is an assigned OCMI in a specific geographic location who has the authorities and jurisdiction to inspect and certificate your vessel, based on where the intended U.S. homeport of your vessel currently is or will be in the future. 

Further information for USCG Areas, Districts, Sectors, Marine Inspection Zones, and Captain of the Port Zones can be found at https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-33/chapter-I/subchapter-A/part-3.
