Triborough Bridge and Tunnel
Authority (TBTA), has requested a
modification of the currently published
deviation to extend the bridge closure
from May 15, 2017 to June 19, 2017 in
order to facilitate rehabilitation of the
mechanical and electrical components
of the bridge.
The 125th Street Bridge, mile 1.3,
across the Harlem River, has a vertical
clearance in the closed position of 54
feet at mean high water and 59 feet at
mean low water. The existing bridge
operating regulations are found at 33
CFR 117.789(b)(1).
Although the waterway is transited by
commercial tugs, barges and
recreational vessels, there have been no
requests for bridge openings in the past
two years. The Coast Guard notified
known companies of the commercial
vessels that transit the area, the NYPD,
and the FDNY; there were no objections
to this temporary deviation
modification.
Under this temporary deviation
modification, the 125th Street Bridge
may remain in the closed position from
May 16, 2017 to June 19, 2017. Vessels
able to pass under the bridge in the
closed position may do so at any time.
The bridge will not be able to open for
emergencies and there is an alternate
route for vessels to pass.
The Coast Guard will inform the users
of the waterways through our Local
Notice and Broadcast to Mariners of the
change in operating schedule for the
bridge so that vessel operations can
arrange their transits to minimize any
impact caused by the temporary
deviation.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the drawbridge must return to its regular
operating schedule immediately at the
end of the effective period of this
temporary deviation. This deviation
from the operating regulations is
authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.
Dated: April 20, 2017.

Extension of Pharmacy Copayments
for Medications

Resolution of interim final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) notifies the public that an
interim final rule freezing medication
copayments for veterans in priority
groups 2 through 8, published on
December 7, 2016, was superseded by a
final rule amending its regulations
concerning copayments that published
on December 12, 2016. The interim final
rule received no public comments.
DATES: Effective Date: This rule is
effective on May 5, 2017.

Care (10D), Veterans Health
Administration, Department of Veterans
Affairs, 810 Vermont Avenue NW.,

(This is not a toll-free number.)
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
December 7, 2016, VA published an
interim final rule, RIN 2900–AP87—
Copayments for Medications in 2017
(AP87), at 81 FR 88120, extending the
medication copayment freeze through
February 26, 2017. We did so in
anticipation of publishing a separate
final rule, RIN 2900–AP35—
Copayments for Medications Beginning
January 1, 2017 (AP35), which
published December 12, 2016, at 81 FR
89390, implementing a tiered
medication copayment regime with an
effective date of February 27, 2017.
Failure to extend the medication
copayment freeze with the interim final
rule would have subjected affected
veterans to a short term, but significant,
increase in the amount of medication
copayments based on the prescription
drug component of the Medical
Consumer Price Index (CPI–P) per 38
CFR 17.110(b)(1)(iii). In addition,
affected veterans in priority groups 2
through 6 would have been subject to an
increase in the annual cap on the total
amount of copayments.
The interim final rule, AP87,
provided a 60-day period during which
the public could submit comments. The
comment period closed on February 6,
2017, and we received no comments.
As previously mentioned, on
December 12, 2016, VA published a
final rule, AP35, at 81 FR 89390. This
final rule established a tiered
