SUBJ: CHANGE TO CAREER SEA PAY (CSP) TABLES
A. TITLE 37 U.S. CODE SEC. 305a
B. COAST GUARD PAY MANUAL, COMDTINST M7220.29 (SERIES)
C. PERSONNEL AND PAY PROCEDURES MANUAL, PPCINST M1000.2 (SERIES)
1. This ALCOAST announces new five-level Career Sea Pay (CSP) tables that will be
effective on 01 January 2017.
2. Background. CSP is a special pay authorized by law. While CSP is a statutory
entitlement, the statute also gives each Service authority to set CSP rates
and establish policy and regulations to administer the Service's CSP program.
The current CSP rate tables took effect 01 Oct 2001. The Coast Guard will implement
restructured CSP rates effective 01 Jan 2017. The five-level system was developed to
better group all ranks and rates serving aboard diverse types of cutters into groups that
share common characteristics.
3. Policy. Effective 01 Jan 2017, REF B policy concerning Monthly Career Sea Duty Pay Rates will be amended as follows:
A. The Monthly Career Sea Duty Pay Rates according to a
three-level CSP rate table, is replaced by a five-level CSP
rate table.
B. New CSP Rates are effective 01 Jan 2017.
C. No "grandfathering" or rate protection is authorized. For
example, a member who is receiving CSP under the current
three-level CSP tables while assigned to a CSP-eligible
vessel in December 2016, will receive the CSP IAW the new
five-level tables, regardless if it is higher or lower than the
previous rate, effective 01 Jan 2017.
D. New Monthly Career Sea Pay Tables may be found at
the following CG website:

4. COMDT (CG-1) designates Coast Guard mobile units. Over
the next 12 months, COMDT (CG-133) will coordinate a comprehensive
review of the requirements to be designated a "mobile unit"
to validate current mobile units status and determine
eligibility of future units.
5. The new CSP policy and procedures will be reflected in
forthcoming changes to REFs B and C, which will be released within the next year.
6. Questions or concerns regarding the Career Sea Pay Tables
should be directed to: LCDR D. F. Flusche, COMDT (CG-7514)
Office of Cutter Forces Patrol Boat Policy & Capabilities
Division, email: Donald.F.Flusche@uscg.mil
