**II. Regulatory History**
We did not publish a notice of proposed rulemaking for this rule. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A), the Coast Guard finds this rule is exempt from notice and comment rulemaking requirements because these changes involve rules of agency organization, procedure, or practice. In addition, the Coast Guard finds notice and comment procedures are unnecessary under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) as this rule consists only of corrections and editorial, organizational, and conforming amendments and these changes will have no substantive effect on the public. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that, for the same reasons, good cause exists for making this rule effective upon publication in the *Federal Register* .
**III. Background**
Each year, the printed edition of title 33 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) is recodified on July 1. This rule, which is effective June 21, 2012, makes technical and editorial corrections throughout title 33. This rule does not create any substantive requirements.
**IV. Basis and Purpose**
This rule amends 33 CFR part 1 to reflect changes in agency organization by adding the authority for District Commanders to establish inland waterways navigation regulations within their areas of responsibility. In 1999, the Commandant delegated the authority to promulgate regulations under 33 U.S.C. 162, Inland Waterways Navigation Regulations, to District Commanders without further redelegation. This amendment codifies this Commandant delegation.
Additionally, in 33 CFR part 1, the authority section in subpart 1.07 is updated to reflect current authorities. The following citations are being removed since these are citations with authorities under the Department of Transportation (DOT), which no longer apply to the Coast Guard: Sec. 6079(d), Public Law 100-690, 102 Stat. 4181, and 49 CFR 1.46. The following citations are added to the authorities since these citations are more relevant to the current civil penalty process: 14 U.S.C. 92(e), 33 U.S.C. 1321(b)(6)(B), 46 U.S.C. 2103, and Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
This rule amends § 2.30(b) to reflect the correct citation to article 55 of the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. We are removing the citation to article 56 because it speaks to the rights, jurisdiction, and duties of the coastal state in the exclusive economic zone, but does not reference the definition of exclusive economic zones. Article 55 sets out the definition of an exclusive economic zone, and is the article relevant to this section.
This rule revises 33 CFR part 27 to remove all references to 33 U.S.C. 1319. This statute does not govern the Coast Guard so we may not authorize a civil monetary penalty under it. This section also informs the public of the maximum civil monetary penalties authorized under 33 U.S.C. 3852 and 46 U.S.C. 70506.
This rule revises 33 CFR parts 40 and 45 to reflect changes in agency organization by removing 49 CFR 1.46(b) from the authority sections in these parts. Because the Coast Guard is no longer a component of DOT, delegations from the Secretary of DOT no longer apply. The regulation at 49 CFR 1.46(b) currently addresses delegations to the Administrator of the Research and Innovative Technology Administration, which is a DOT office.
This rule revises § 66.01-1 by moving current paragraph (a) to paragraph (a) of § 66.10-1, which is the proper location. Due to a clerical error, the current § 66.01-1 paragraph (a) mistakenly replaced the former paragraph (a) in that section. We are now correcting that error and restoring the former paragraph (a) to § 66.01-1 and moving current paragraph (a) in § 66.01-1 to its correct location as paragraph (a) of § 66.10-1.
This rule amends § 80.825 by removing paragraphs (d) and (e) from this section. In 1990, the boundary lines of the Mississippi Passes, Louisiana were redrawn. The coordinates now located in paragraphs (d) and (e) are encompassed by the new boundary lines found in paragraphs (a) through (c) so we are removing these superfluous coordinates in paragraphs (d) and (e).
This rule corrects non-substantive typographical and spelling errors in 33 CFR part 83. In § 83.10, a space has been removed between the heading of the paragraph and the body of the paragraph. In § 83.27, a space has been added between “mine” and “clearance” to make them two separate words.
This rule corrects non-substantive typographical and spelling errors in 33 CFR part 84. In § 84.01, to avoid any printing confusing, cubic meters is replacing meters <sub>3</sub> . Paragraphs and subparagraphs in § 84.03 and § 84.07 use the incorrect Office of the Federal Register (OFR) numbering scheme. The incorrect numbering scheme is being replaced. In § 84.15, there is a formula for intensity of lights. Following this formula, each letter in the formula is defined. A colon is being inserted after each letter representation and a hard return is added following each colon. The word “two” is incorrectly spelled as “tow” in § 84.17 so the word “two” is being corrected.
This rule corrects non-substantive typographical and spelling errors in 33 CFR part 85. Paragraphs and subparagraphs in § 85.1 use the incorrect OFR numbering scheme. The incorrect numbering scheme is being replaced.
This rule corrects non-substantive typographical and spelling errors in 33 CFR part 100. Table 1 in § 100.901 identifies Buffalo as a “Group” not a “Sector.” This is an incorrect identification so this section is being revised to reflect “Sector.” “Bell” and “Russel” are incorrectly spelled in §§ 100.912 and 100.916, respectively. The correct spellings of “Belle” and “Russell” are being inserted.
This rule revises 33 CFR part 101 to remove a reference to an outdated assessment tool. On May 16, 2012, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced that the TSA Maritime Self-Assessment Risk Module, developed to support the Coast Guard's regulatory efforts promulgated pursuant to the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002, will no longer be available. Since this assessment tool will no longer be available, the reference to this tool in section 101.510(a) must be removed.
This rule amends 33 CFR part 110 to reflect changes in geographic coordinates and command boundaries. Based on a previous technical amendment, several geographic coordinates were updated in § 110.60. Several notes in § 110.155 refer back to § 110.60. Therefore, since several geographic coordinates changed in § 110.60, the notes in § 110.155 also need to reflect that change. Additionally, in 1996, the command boundaries for the Captain of the Port Long Island were redrawn. Because of this, the anchorage areas in Randall Bay, Freeport, and Long Island were redrawn under the command of the Captain of the Port Long Island. Section 110.156 is being updated to reflect this command change.
The authority section in 33 CFR part 110 is also revised to correct a citation. The delegation of rulemaking authority to establish anchorages is cited incorrectly as 33 CFR 1.05-1(g). The citation is being changed to reflect that 33 CFR 1.05-1 is the correct authority.
This rule revises the definitional section in § 114.05 to reflect the format in the definitions in § 117.4. The letter designations, including the period after each word, are removed. The definitions will now read as sentences beginning with the word to be defined. The format used in the definitional section in § 117.4 is preferred and this change will create format consistency in the two sections.
Additionally, this rule revises § 114.20(a) to replace the words “a tracing” with the words “as-built plans.” This change does not change the substance of the regulation but replaces a term of art with an updated, more accurate term of art.
This rule revises 33 CFR part 115 to correct grammatically incorrect or passive phrases. In § 115.01, the phrase “for construction of or modification to” is replaced with active language, “to construct or modify.” The grammar in § 115.05 is corrected by replacing the word “be” with “is.”
In § 115.40, we are replacing the words “approval of” with “a formal permit action from”. This section addresses the fact that bridge repairs do not require permitting if they only replace worn or obsolete parts of an already-approved bridge. “Approved” is already used in the short paragraph and “a formal permit action” is a more accurate description of the Coast Guard's role. Therefore, this section has been changed to incorporate permit instead of approval.
In § 115.50, we are changing the word “referred” to “refer” as it is grammatically correct.
In § 115.60, the word “construction” is removed from the heading. This section focuses on applications for permits to construct, modify, or replace bridges. The word “construction” in the title does not accurately indicate the breadth of the regulation so the word is being removed. Also, in paragraph (d) of this section, we are removing a comma after the word “disapproval” since the comma makes the sentence grammatically incorrect.
This rule corrects non-substantive typographical and spelling errors in 33 CFR part 116. In § 116.15(a), we are replacing “Bridge Administration Program” with the correct office designation of “Office of Bridge Programs.”
This rule amends 33 CFR part 117 to correct the current names of the following bridges with their accurate names: Main Street (U.S. 17) Bridge; Baltimore Harbor-Patapsco Bridge; Debbie's Creek Bridge; SR#543 Bridge; Beaufort Channel, NC Bridge; and Rancocas River (Creek) Bridge. Because we are changing existing bridge names to the accurate names, the headings in §§ 117.325(a), 117.541, 117.715, 117.719, 117.745, 117.822, and 117.823 are changed accordingly, and the sections are redesignated to follow the alphabetical order of state waterways set out in this subpart. Also, in § 117.571, “4.0” is changed to “0.4” to reflect the correct mile marker. In § 117.965, “Bay City” is changed to “Bridge City” to reflect the correct location.
The rules in new §§ 117.566 and 117.823 are rewritten to clarify bridge operation and appropriate bridge contacts. Although the substance of the regulations is unchanged, the revisions make them easier to understand.
The rule amends § 118.160 to include the following language in paragraph (b): “(in the closed to navigation position for drawbridges)”. This language will follow the phrase “the bridge channel span”. The substance of the rule is not changing, but inserting the additional language makes the regulation clearer.
This rule corrects non-substantive typographical and spelling errors in 33 CFR part 136. There are commas missing from the following sections in part 136: 136.3, 136.5, and 136.101. We are adding commas in the appropriate places in these sections. In § 136.305, we are correcting the spelling of the word “regarding”, and in that same section, we are replacing “of” with “and”, which is the appropriate conjunction.
This rule corrects non-substantive typographical and spelling errors in 33 CFR part 138. In § 138.20, we are adding missing commas in the appropriate places. Also in that section, we are adding a space between the end of the sentence and the beginning of the next sentence.
This rule corrects non-substantive typographical and spelling errors in 33 CFR part 162. In § 162.120, we are correcting the spelling of two cities' names.
This rule amends 33 CFR 165.941 by removing the word “fireworks” from the section heading. This section speaks to safety zones for annual events in the Captain of the Port Detroit Zone. The word “fireworks” in the heading does not accurately indicate the breadth of the regulation, which applies to any annual event requiring a safety zone. We are also removing paragraph (a)(5) titled “Alpena Fireworks, Alpena, MI” in its entirety, as it is no longer under the responsibility of the Captain of the Port Detroit Zone, and this event was moved to another section by a previous rulemaking. This rule also rewords the notification section in paragraph (f) to clarify already-established Coast Guard practice, stating that the Captain of the Port “may” issue, “if deemed necessary,” a notice cancelling a safety zone, instead of mandating that he or she issue a notice of cancellation.
We are revising an authority in 33 CFR part 177.09(b)(2) to reflect a correct citation. There is currently a reference to 46 U.S.C., pointing out the authority under which certain civil penalties are assessed. Currently, paragraph (b)(2) makes a general reference to this title but immediately following that, it incorrectly lists title 43 instead of 46. We are changing the misquoted reference to 46 U.S.C.
This rule amends §§ 1.05-1(j), 114.50, 165.920(b), and 100.901 in title 33 to update internal Coast Guard office designations as well as certain personnel titles. Changes in personnel titles included in this rule are only technical revisions reflecting changes in agency procedures and organization, and do not indicate new authorities.
Finally, this rule amends §§ 114.50, 118.3(b), and 66.01-5 in title 33 to update various physical addresses for Coast Guard offices as well as Web site addresses and contact information.
**V. Regulatory Analyses**
We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses based on 14 of these statutes or executive orders.
**A. Regulatory Planning and Review**
Executive Orders 12866 (“Regulatory Planning and Review”) and 13563 (“Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review”) direct agencies to assess the costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility.
This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 and does not require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that Order. The Office of Management and Budget has not reviewed it under that Order. Because this rule involves non-substantive changes and internal agency practices and procedures, it will not impose any additional costs on the public.
**B. Small Entities**
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), rules exempt from the notice and comment requirements of the APA are not required to examine the impact of the rule on small entities. Nevertheless, we have considered whether this rule would have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. The term “small entities” comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than 50,000.
There is no cost to this rule and we do not expect it to have an impact on small entities because the provisions of this rule are technical and non-substantive. It will have no substantive effect on the public and will impose no additional costs. Therefore, the Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
**C. Assistance for Small Entities**
Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small entities in understanding the rule so that they can better evaluate its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking. If the rule would affect your small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you have questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance, please consult Leo Huott by phone at 202-372-1565 or via email at *[email protected].* The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard.
Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR (1-888-734-3247).
**D. Collection of Information**
This rule calls for no new collection of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).
**E. Federalism**
A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132, Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this rule under that Order and have determined that it does not have implications for federalism.
**F. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act**
The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538) requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for inflation) or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in this preamble.
**G. Taking of Private Property**
This rule will not cause a taking of private property or otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property Rights.
**H. Civil Justice Reform**
This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.
**I. Protection of Children**
We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is not an economically significant rule and does not create an environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may disproportionately affect children.
**J. Indian Tribal Governments**
This rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination With Indian Tribal Governments, because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.
**K. Energy Effects**
We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a “significant energy action” under that order because it is not a “significant regulatory action” under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use of energy. The Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects under Executive Order 13211.
**L. Technical Standards**
The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress, through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why using these standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance, design, or operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related management systems practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies.
This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.
**M. Environment**
We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have concluded that this action is one of a category of actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. This rule is categorically excluded under section 2.B.2, figure 2-1, paragraphs (34)(a) and (b) of the Instruction. This rule involves regulations that are editorial, procedural, or concern internal agency functions or organizations. An environmental analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion determination are available in the docket where indicated under *ADDRESSES* .
