I. Regulatory History
We did not publish a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this regulation. Under both 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A) and (b)(B), the Coast Guard finds this rule is exempt from notice and comment rulemaking requirements because these changes involve agency organization and practices. In addition, good cause exists for not publishing an NPRM for all revisions in the rule because they are all nonsubstantive changes. This rule consists only of corrections and editorial, organizational, and conforming amendments. These changes will have no substantive effect on the public; therefore, it is unnecessary to publish an NPRM. 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.
II. Background
Each year the printed editions of Titles 46 and 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations are recodified on October 1. This rule, which becomes effective September 25, 2009, makes technical and editorial corrections throughout Titles 46 and 49. This rule does not create any substantive requirements.
III. Discussion of Rule
This rule updates various addresses for Coast Guard offices throughout Titles 46 and 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations in order to conform to new mailing addresses and mailing address formats that came into use June 15, 2009. This rule also updates internal Coast Guard office designators throughout Titles 46 and 49.
This rule amends incorporation by reference provisions at 46 CFR 15.105, 30.013, 34.0115, 92.012, 95.012, 105.013, and 193.013 to conform to the format specified by the Office of the Federal Register.
Additional amendments to 46 CFR parts 1, 2, 7, 54, 67, 68, 150, 170, and 172 are as follows:
46 CFR 1.0110. This rule updates Sec. 1.0110 to reflect changes to the organizational structure of the Coast Guard in recent years in relation to the marine safety functions governed by Title 46.
46 CFR 2.0130. The Assistant Commandant for Marine Safety, Security, and Stewardship has delegated to the Coast Guard Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection, the authority to redelegate to each Marine Safety Unit Commanding Officer under his or her command the authority to sign documents issued under 46 CFR Subpart 2.01. This redelegation is in addition to the authority to redelegate signature authority to one individual on his or her staff. The Coast Guard is updating Sec. 2.0130 to reflect this change.
46 CFR 7.55. Certain paragraphs of Sec. 7.55 describe boundary lines marked by buoys. Although the boundary lines remain unchanged, the buoys have been moved for navigation purposes and no longer mark the boundary lines. To avoid confusion, the Coast Guard is removing parenthetical references to the buoys in these paragraphs.
46 CFR 54.1525. The formula at Sec. 54.1525(c) was improperly printed in a technical amendment published on September 21, 2007 (72 FR 53965). In the erroneous version, the square root symbol does not extend over the fraction ZT/M. The Coast Guard is reinstating the correct formula, formatted so that the square root symbol extends over the fraction.
46 CFR Parts 67 and 68. The Coast Guard is updating Parts 67 and 68 to correct an inadvertent change introduced by a technical correction made in the Coast Guard Authorization Act of 1989 (Pub. L. 101225). This error was remedied by Congress in the Coast Guard Authorization Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104324, sec. 1115(a)), which repealed what was then section 12107 of Title 46, United States Code. Specifically, in an associated House Report (104854), Congress stated that the 1989 change ``unintentionally added all of the requirements of the U.S. coastwise trade (Jones Act) to all vessels operating on the Great Lakes, even those only trading between the United States and Canada.'' Therefore, in order to make the regulations consistent with the statutory intent, the Coast Guard will remove all references to the need for an endorsement on the Great Lakes.
46 CFR 150. In Table I to Part 150, Benzene is assigned to cargo group 32, footnote 2. Footnote 2 directs the reader
[[Page 49219]]
to Appendix I to Part 150Exceptions to the Chart. However, Appendix I
contains no exceptions for Benzene. Therefore, the Coast Guard is deleting the reference to footnote 2.
In the same Table I, Fluorosilicic acid is assigned to Group 1. In Table II to Part 150, Fluorosilicic acid appears in the lists for both Group 0 and Group 1. The appearance in Group 0 is an erroneous duplication. Therefore, the Coast Guard is deleting Fluorosilicic acid from the list for Group 0 in Table II to Part 150.
46 CFR 170.160 and 172.080. In a 1989 final rule, the Coast Guard removed 46 CFR Table 151.0110(b) and replaced references to it in Part 151 with references to 46 CFR Table 151.05 (54 FR 40029). However, certain references outside Part 151 were not changed. Sections 170.160(c)(1) and 172.080 still refer to Table 151.0110(b), which no longer exists. In accordance with the intent of the 1989 final rule, the Coast Guard is replacing these references with references to Table 151.05.
IV. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and executive orders related to rulemaking. Below, we summarize our analyses based on 13 of these statutes or executive orders. A. Regulatory Planning and Review
This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, 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 nonsubstantive changes and internal agency practices and procedures, it will not impose any costs on the public.
B. Small Entities
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601612), 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, notforprofit organizations that are independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their fields, and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than 50,000.
This rule does not require a general notice of proposed rulemaking and, therefore, is exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. However, 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. Collection of Information
This rule calls for no new collection of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 35013520).
D. 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.
E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 15311538) 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 or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in such expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in this preamble. F. Taking of Private Property
This rule will not effect a taking of private property or otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property Rights.
G. 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.
H. 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.
I. 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.
J. 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.
K. 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.
L. Environment
We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 02301 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. 43214370f), and have concluded
that this action is one of a category of actions which do not
individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human
environment. Therefore, this rule is categorically excluded under
section 2.B.2, figure 21, paragraphs (34)(a) and (b) of the
Instruction. This rule involves editorial, procedural, and internal
agency functions. An environmental analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion determination are available in
[[Page 49220]]
