SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background and Purpose
Each year Title 46 of the Code of Federal Regulations is recodified
on October 1. This rule makes miscellaneous editorial changes,
conforming amendments, and revisions relating to recent Coast Guard
organizational changes, to be included in the 1997 recodification of
Title 46.
Discussion of Changes
As part of its Headquarters reorganization, the Coast Guard changed
senior management position titles from ``Chief'' to ``Assistant
Commandant'' for the Acquisition, Civil Rights, Marine Safety and
Environmental Protection, Operations, and Systems and Human Resources
programs. This rule revises the Marine Safety and Environmental
Protection title to conform to the current organization.
The rule also makes editorial changes throughout the title,
corrects addresses, updates cross-references, and makes other technical
corrections. This rule does not change any substantive requirements of
existing regulations.
Sections 1.03-15, 1.03-30, 1.03-35, and 1.03-40
In sections 1.03-15((h) (2) and (3), 1.03-30 (a) and (b), and 1.03-
35(a), the Coast Guard revises the appeal process concerning appeals to
the Commandant and to the Marine Safety Center involving tonnage
measurement; and removes both paragraph (c) of section 1.03-35 and
section 1.03-40.
Section 2.10-25
Section 2.10-25 revises the definition for Offshore supply vessel
or OSV to conform to the definition published in the Offshore Supply
Vessels; Alternate Tonnage final rule; interpretation (61 FR 66613),
published on December 18, 1996.
Sections 24.10-17 and 25.30-20
In section 24.10-17 and Table 25.30-20(a)(1), the Coast Guard
removes references to motorboat classes ``A, 1, 2, or 3'' because the
recreational boating safety regulations no longer refer to motorboat
classes, but rely solely on vessel length category.
Sections 69.15, 69.17, 69.19 and 69.23
In sections 69.15, 69.17, 69.19 and 69.23, the Coast Guard changes
the term ``Organizations authorized to measure vessels'' to
``Authorized measurement organizations'' for tonnage measurement and,
in addition, makes available a current listing of authorized
measurement organizations.
Section 69.63
This rule corrects a codification error, and subsequent publication
errors, that dropped an element of the formula from Sec. 69.63, Net
tonnage.
Sections 98.30-4, 98.30-5, 98.33-3, 147.40, 147.45, and 147.A.11
The Coast Guard revises sections 98.30-4(a)(1), 98.30-5(a)(4), (b),
and (e), 98.33-3 (a) and (b), 147.40 (a)(1) and (a)(2), 147.45(f)(3),
and 147A.11(b)(5)(iii) to conform to 49 CFR Chapter I, Subchapter C
(HAZARDOUS MATERIALS REGULATIONS), and the 1990 comprehensive revision
and reorganization of that Subchapter.
Since this amendment relates to departmental management,
organization, procedure, and practice, notice and comment on it are
unnecessary and it may be made effective in fewer than 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register. Therefore, this final rule is
effective on September 30, 1997.
Regulatory Evaluation
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. It
has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget under that
order. It is not significant under the regulatory policies and
procedures of the Department of Transportation (DOT) (44 FR 11040;
February 26, 1979). The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this
rule to be so minimal that a full Regulatory Evaluation under paragraph
10e of the regulatory policies and procedures of DOT is unnecessary. As
this rule involves internal agency practices and procedures, it will
not impose any costs on the public.
Collection of Information
This rule contains no collection-of-information requirements under
the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
Federalism
The Coast Guard has analyzed this rule under the principles and
criteria contained in Executive Order 12612 and has determined that
this rule does not have sufficient federalism implications to warrant
the preparation of a Federalism Assessment.
Environment
The Coast Guard considered the environmental impact of this rule
and concluded that under paragraph 2.B.2 of Commandant Instruction
M16475.1B, this rule is categorically excluded from further
environmental documentation. This exclusion is in accordance with
paragraphs 2.B.2.e.(34) (a) and (b), concerning regulations that are
editorial or procedural and concerning internal agency functions or
organization. A ``Categorical Exclusion Determination'' is available in
the docket for inspection or copying where indicated under ADDRESSES.
[[Page 51039]]
Unfunded Mandates
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), (Pub.
L. 104-4, 109 Stat. 48), requires Federal agencies to assess the
effects of certain regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal
governments, and the private sector. UMRA requires a written statement
of economic and regulatory alternatives for proposed and final rules
that contain Federal mandates. A ``Federal mandate,'' is a new or
additional enforceable duty, imposed on any State, local or tribal
government, or the private sector. If any Federal mandate causes those
entities, to spend, in the aggregate, $100 million or more in any one
year the UMRA analysis is required. This rule does not impose Federal
mandates on any State, local or tribal governments or the private
sector.
