No. Notice to Mariners No. II - 1.1 SECTION II NM 1/25 MARINE INFORMATION STANDARD NAUTICAL CHART REDUCTION As the international maritime community moves towards electronic navigation, the Maritime Safety Office has begun reducing NGA's Limited Distribution (LIMDIS) Standard Nautical Chart (SNC) portfolio as of August 2023. Hardcopy charts, with the exception of Littoral Planning Charts and Public Sale Charts, will be canceled no later than 31 August 2024. The remaining charts are planned to be canceled by March of 2026. A cumulative list of completed and projected hardcopy chart cancellations, starting in US Notice to Mariners week 34/23, is available by clicking on the “SNC Cancellation List” button to the right of this webpage: https://msi.nga.mil/NTM. NGA will support limited US government hardcopy requirements in these areas by using Certified Printed Electronic Navigational Chart (CPENC) and international partners charts. CPENC boundaries can be found in the DLA Map Catalog and the interactive DLA Map Catalog in FEDMALL. US Government customers needing hardcopy support in areas where charts are canceled should contact MarHelp@nga.mil. Sailing Directions are being adjusted to reflect the elimination of Standard Nautical Charts. 1. Sector Graphics - Removal of all SNC footprints, adding a sector boundary polygon, deleting of the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) information paragraph, and updating the sector graphic caption “Sector ###-CHART INFORMATION” to read “SECTOR ###-BOUNDARIES.” 2. Explanatory Remarks - Updating the Charts paragraph to reflect the SNC reduction process. 3. Index-Gazetteer - Updating the information paragraphs to reflect the SNC reduction process. 4. Sailing Directions Text - Removing all references to SNC chart numbers. MARINE INFORMATION REPORT AND SUGGESTION SHEET INSTRUCTIONS We value your suggestions to improve our products.

Each Region is further subdivided into the numbered Subregions in the above graphic. The first two digits of all five-digit chart numbers indicate the geographic subregion to which the chart pertains. Users can locate corrections in this Notice for charts of their immediate interest by determining the two-digit Subregion number of the pertinent geo graphic area, and then turning to the page or pages that list the chart numbers beginning with those two digits.
