# §101.665. Noncompliance, waivers, and equivalents.


An owner or operator, after completion of the required Cybersecurity Assessment, may seek a waiver or an equivalence determination for the requirements in [subpart F](/cfr/33/subpartF.md) using the standards and submission procedures applicable to a U.S.-flagged vessel, facility, or OCS facility as outlined in 33 CFR [101.130](/cfr/33/101.130.md), [104.130](/cfr/33/104.130.md), [104.135](/cfr/33/104.135.md), [105.130](/cfr/33/105.130.md), [105.135](/cfr/33/105.135.md), [106.125](/cfr/33/106.125.md), or [106.130](/cfr/33/106.130.md). If an owner or operator must temporarily deviate from the requirements in this part, they must notify the cognizant COTP for facilities or OCS facilities, or the MSC for U.S.-flagged vessels, and may request temporary permission to continue to operate under the provisions as outlined in 33 CFR [104.125](/cfr/33/104.125.md), [105.125](/cfr/33/105.125.md), or [106.120](/cfr/33/106.120.md).
