Marine Regional Examination Center moves to new location at Mendenhall Mall

JUNEAU, Alaska - The Regional Examination Center (REC) formerly located at the Coast Guard Sector Juneau Office on Sherwood Lane will begin operating from their new location in the Mendenhall Mall Monday.

As part of the nationwide restructuring and centralization of the Mariner Licensing and Documentation (MLD) program, REC Juneau became a field unit of the National Maritime Center (NMC), located in Martinsburg, W. Va. in April.

REC Juneau is now operating as a storefront operation where the staff will help mariners ensure their application is ready for evaluation before forwarding to the NMC. The REC will also administer professional examinations to mariners as part of the credentialing process.

For more information on improvements we're making to the MLD program go to our web site at http://www.uscg.mil/nmc or to http://www.homeport.uscg.mil and select Merchant Mariners under the list of missions.

The Coast Guard is committed to improving the MLD program through the restructuring and centralization project. We thank you for challenging us to improve; we ask for your patience as we do.

REC Juneau's new address will be:

U.S. Coast Guard Regional Examination Center (REC) Juneau
9105 Mendenhall Mall Rd.
Suite 170
Juneau, Ak 99801
Tel: (907) 463-2458
