Page one of the CG 5577 (rev. 2-99) is retained by the unit for unit files and case processing.
Page two is given to the container custodian for his records or disposition. Page three and the
bubble sheet should be mailed to CITAT in the same mail envelope. CITAT will retain both
forms until further notice after scanning is complete. Protect the bubble sheet. Do not fold,
staple, or smear the scanning form.
7.
Send the forms to CITAT whenever you complete 25 inspections, or at least every two weeks.
For technical questions and additional supplies, call CITAT at (405) 954-8985. Mail
completed forms to:
U.S. Coast Guard Container Inspection Training and Assistance Team
Transportation Safety Institute (DTI-120)
Oklahoma City, OK 73125-5050
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE SCANNABLE BUBBLE SHEET:
DATE BLOCK (required entry):
Self-explanatory. Enter last two digits of year, month, and day of the container inspection.
TYPE OF CONTAINER (required entry):
Select one of the three entries as best fit for the container that was inspected.
COUNTRY OF ORGIN (required entry):
Use the standard MSIS two-character flag code to indicate the country from which the
container/shipment originated.
HAZMAT REGISTRY # (optional entry):
Anyone transporting hazardous materials within the conditions specified in 49 CFR 107.601 must
register with DOT/Research and Special Programs Administration (RSPA) and pay a fee. That
registration number represents an excellent way to track companies that continually have trouble
with the regulations. If this HAZMAT registry number is known or can be found out then this
number should be entered here. The HAZMAT Registry is a 12 digit and single alphabet letter.
This piece of information will help RSPA and the Coast Guard track shippers that are having
trouble throughout the United States. (Note: This item will probably become mandatory in a few
months as the Coast Guard, RSPA, and the other modal agencies move closer together.)
