Register your beacon online at: www.beaconregistration.noaa.gov No. of YesNo OMB Auth. (0648-0295) Expires: 30JUN2011 Important Notice -Please Read Before Completing Registration Registration is an important facet for all Cospas-Sarsat 406 MHz emergency beacons. Not only is it required by Federal Regulations but the information you furnish is used by Search And Rescue (SAR) agencies in the event of beacon activation. The registration information is an important tool to assist the United States Coast Guard, United States Air Force, and other SAR agencies in locating and quickly responding to you, your vessel, or your aircraft. Failure to register your beacon may delay a rescue response. Accurate, up-to-date registration information will also be used to conserve resources by helping to eliminate false alert deployments, as an inadvertent activation can be resolved with a phone call. There is no charge for beacon registration. This is a service provided by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). All online registrations will be entered into the National 406 MHz Beacon Registration Database on the same day of entry. Registration forms received via postal mail will be entered within 2 business days of receipt. For online registrations, a confirmation letter with your completed registration information form will be sent immediately via e-mail or fax (if provided). Confirmation letters sent via postal mail should arrive within two weeks. Once your registration confirmation is received, please review all information. Any changes or updates to your registration information can be done via the internet, fax, e-mail or postal mail. If you do not receive your registration confirmation from NOAA on the same day you submit it over the internet or within two weeks if you submit it by postal mail, please call NOAA toll-free at: 1-888-212-SAVE (7283) or 301-817-4515 for assistance. After initial registration (or re-registration) you will receive a NOAA Proof of Registration Decal by postal mail. This decal is to be affixed to the beacon and should be placed in such a way that it is clearly visible. If for some reason you do not receive the registration decal within two weeks, please call NOAA toll-free at: 1-888-212-SAVE (7283) or 301-817-4515. Failure to register, re-register (as required every two years), or to notify NOAA of any changes to the status of your 406 MHz beacon could result in penalties and/or fines bei…
