This circular distributes as 'Guide for the Automation of Main and Auxiliary Ship's Machinery' to all interested and affected members of the marine community. With the current trend to fewer engineering watchstanders, it is essential that all concerned be aware of the equipment and systems necessary to reduce the manning in machinery spaces without compromising the safety of life and property. This circular and the enclosed guide supersedes the information previously issued as NVIC 5-67.
