What documents, similar to a SOPEP, may be required under US law for a voyage to US waters?

A federal Vessel Response Plan (VRP), as required by US federal law, and, for entering waters of certain US states (such as California), a state VRP as required by the law of each state whose waters are entered. Details of requirements can be obtained by shipowners from the P&I club in which the ship is entered.
