Certifications and Exemptions Under
the International Regulations for
Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972
Department of the Navy, DOD.
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 BENFOLD
(DDG 65) 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: September 21,
2006.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Commander Gregg A. Cervi, JAGC, U.S.
Navy, Deputy Assistant Judge Advocate
General (Admiralty and Maritime Law),

Ave., SE., Suite 3000, Washington Navy
Yard, DC 20374–5066, telephone 202–
685–5040.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to the authority granted in 33 U.S.C.
1605, the Department of the Navy
amends 32 CFR Part 706. This
amendment provides notice that the
Deputy Assistant Judge Advocate
General (Admiralty and Maritime Law),
under authority delegated by the
Secretary of the Navy, has certified that
USS BENFOLD (DDG 65) 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; and Annex I, paragraph 2(f)(ii),
pertaining to the vertical placement of
task lights. 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.

Bay for the annual U.S. Navy and City
of San Francisco sponsored Fleet Week
Parade of Navy Ships and Air Show
Demonstration to be held October 5 thru
October 8, 2006. This SLR will be used

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
October 1, 1993, the Coast Guard
published a final rule (58 FR 51242)
modifying the regulations in 33 CFR
VerDate Aug<31>2005
14:44 Oct 02, 2006
Jkt 211001
100.1105, that establish regulated areas
to ensure the safe execution of the San
Francisco Bay Navy Fleet Week Parade
of Ships and Air Show Demonstration.
The U. S. Navy and City of San
Francisco are sponsoring the Annual
Fleet Week Parade of Navy Ships and
Air Show Demonstration to be held
October 5 thru October 8, 2006.
Due to the security concerns
associated with the participating naval
vessels and hazards associated with the
air show demonstration, 33 CFR
100.1105 is necessary to provide for the
safety of event participants, spectator
craft, and other vessels transiting the
event area. Under the provisions of 33
CFR 100.1105, a vessel may not enter
Regulated area ‘‘Alpha’’ or ‘‘Bravo’’,
unless it receives permission from the
Coast Guard Patrol Commander.
Additionally, no person or vessel may
enter or remain within 500 yards ahead
of the lead Navy parade vessel, within
200 yards astern of the last parade
vessel, or within 200 yards on either
side of any parade vessel. Spectator
vessels may safely transit outside the
regulated area but may not anchor,
block, loiter in, or impede the transit of
ship parade participants or official
patrol vessels. The Coast Guard may be
assisted by other Federal, State, or local
law enforcement agencies in enforcing
the SLR.
Because this SLR will be in effect for
a limited period, it should not result in
a significant disruption of maritime
traffic. Additionally, the maritime
community will be provided advance
notification of these events via the Local
Notice to Mariners.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Regulatory Information
On August 1, 2006, we published a
Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
entitled Special Local Regulations for
Marine Events; Back River, Poquoson,
VA in the Federal Register (71 FR
43400). We received no letters
commenting on the proposed rule. No
public meeting was requested, and none
was held.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal
Register. Delaying the effective date
would be contrary to the public interest,
since immediate action is needed to
ensure the safety of the event
participants, support craft and other
vessels transiting the event area.
However, advance notifications will be
made to affected waterway users via
marine information broadcasts, area
newspapers and local radio stations.
Background and Purpose
On October 15, 2006, the City of
Poquoson will sponsor ‘‘Poquoson
Seafood Festival Workboat Races’’ on
the Back River, immediately adjacent
and south of Messick Point. The event
will consist of approximately 60
traditional Chesapeake Bay deadrise
workboats racing along a marked strait
line race course in heats of 2 to 4 boats
for a distance of approximately 600
yards. Due to the need for vessel control
during the event, the Coast Guard will
temporarily restrict vessel traffic in the
event area to provide for the safety of
