2024-04273. Drawbridge Operation Regulation; River Rouge, Detroit, MI; Correction

AGENCY:

Coast Guard, Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

ACTION:

Correcting amendment.

SUMMARY:

The Coast Guard is correcting regulations that published in the Federal Register on December 28, 2023. The final rule announced changes to the operations of all movable bridges over the River Rouge, Detroit, MI, to improve communications and establish winter hours. This correction fixes incorrect language in the regulations. The language in the final rule inadvertently stated the draw of the Dix Avenue Bridge, mile 2.73, is remotely operated, when it is not equipped or authorized to operate remotely.

DATES:

This correcting amendment is effective February 29, 2024.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

If you have questions on this correcting amendment, call or email Mr. Lee D. Soule, Bridge Management Specialist, Ninth Coast Guard District; telephone [phone], email [e-mail].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In FR Doc. 2023–28645, appearing on page 89574 in the Federal Register of December 28, 2023, the final rule inadvertently identified in paragraph (h) that the bridge is remotely operated. The Coast Guard did not intend to include this text in § 117.645(h). Therefore, we are correcting paragraph (h) by removing the words “is remotely operated”.
