Final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Department of the Navy
is amending its certifications and
exemptions under the International
Regulations for Preventing Collisions at
Sea, 1972 (72 COLREGS), to reflect that
the Deputy Assistant Judge Advocate
General (Admiralty and Maritime Law)
has determined that USS MITSCHER
(DDG 57) is a vessel of the Navy which,
due to its special construction and
purpose, cannot fully comply with
certain provisions of the 72 COLREGS
without interfering with its special
function as a naval ship. The intended
effect of this rule is to warn mariners in
waters where 72 COLREGS apply.
DATES: Effective Date: May 26, 2006.

Deputy Assistant Judge Advocate
General (Admiralty and Maritime Law),
under authority delegated by the
Secretary of the Navy, has certified that
USS MITSCHER (DDG 57) is a vessel of
the Navy which, due to its special
construction and purpose, cannot fully
comply with the following specific
provisions of 72 COLREGS without
interfering with its special function as a
naval ship: Annex I, paragraph 3(a),
pertaining to the horizontal distance
between the forward and after masthead
lights; Annex I, paragraph 2(f)(ii),
pertaining to the vertical placement of
task lights; and Rule 21(a), pertaining to
the arc of visibility of the forward
masthead light. The Deputy Assistant
Judge Advocate General (Admiralty and
Maritime Law) has also certified that the
lights involved are located in closest
possible compliance with the applicable
72 COLREGS requirements. All other
previously certified deviations from the
72 COLREGS not affected by this
amendment remain in effect.
Moreover, it has been determined, in
accordance with 32 CFR Parts 296 and
701, that publication of this amendment
for public comment prior to adoption is
impracticable, unnecessary, and
contrary to public interest since it is
based on technical findings that the
placement of lights on this vessel in a
manner differently from that prescribed
herein will adversely affect the vessel’s
ability to perform its military functions.

AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is
temporarily changing the regulations
that govern the operation of the U.S. 70
Bridge across Beaufort (Gallants)
Channel, mile 0.1, at Beaufort, NC. The
rule allows the bridge to remain in the
closed-to-navigation position from
midnight on June 30, 2006, until and
including 9 p.m. on July 5, 2006, to
facilitate the Pepsi America Sail 2006
event.
DATES: This rule is effective from
midnight on June 30, 2006 to 9 p.m. on
July 5, 2006.
ADDRESSES: Documents indicated in this
preamble as being available in the
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 208001
We did not publish a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this
regulation. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the
Coast Guard finds that good cause exists
for not publishing an NPRM. This rule
is necessary due to the high volume of
pedestrians (approximately 400,000)
that are expected to attend this event
and as such it has been coordinated
with local marinas and the North
Carolina Department of Transportation
(NCDOT). We believe that it is not
necessary to draft or publish an NPRM
in advance of the requested start date for
this bridge closure due to the
availability of an alternate maritime
route. The bridge closure is also a
necessary measure to ensure public
safety by allowing for the orderly
movement of vehicular traffic before,

Sfmt 4700
during and after the Pepsi America Sail
2006 event.
Good Cause for Making Rule Effective
in Less Than 30 Days
Under 5 U.S.C. 533(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective in less than 30
days after publication in the Federal
Register. A 30-day delayed effective
date is unnecessary due to the
availability of an alternate local route
for mariners, through Morehead City on
the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway,
which is the result of coordination with
local marine facilities. Good cause also
exists for making this rule effective in
less than thirty days to ensure the
public interest. The event is scheduled
for June 30, 2006, until and including
July 5, 2006 and immediate action is
necessary to ensure public safety and
provide for the orderly movement of
participants and vehicular traffic during
the Pepsi America Sail 2006 event.
Background and Purpose
In the closed-to-navigation position,
the U.S. 70 Bridge, at mile 0.1, across
Beaufort (Gallants) Channel, has a
vertical clearance of approximately 13
feet above mean high water. The
existing regulations are outlined at 33
CFR 117.822.
On behalf of NCDOT, who owns and
operates the U.S. 70 Bridge, organizers
of the Pepsi America Sail 2006
requested a temporary change to the
operating regulations for the U.S. 70
Bridge to facilitate the event.
