SUMMARY: On September 11, 1996, the Coast Guard published a direct 
final rule (61 FR 47823, Docket Number CGD13-96-028). This direct final

made to this regulation will revise the boundaries of the safety zone. 
These changes are intended to better inform the boating public and to 
improve the level of safety at this event. The Coast Guard has not 
received any adverse comments or any notice of an intent to submit 
adverse comments objecting to this rule as written. Therefore, this 
rule will go into effect as scheduled.
