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 MISSOURI
(SSN 780) 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: This rule is effective April 30,
2010 and is applicable beginning April
21, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Lieutenant Commander Ted Cook,
(Admiralty and Maritime Law), Office of
the Judge Advocate General, Department
of the Navy, 1322 Patterson 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 MISSOURI (SSN 780) 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 2(a)(i),
pertaining to the height placement of
the masthead light above the hull;
Annex I, paragraph 2(k), pertaining to
the height and relative positions of the
anchor lights; Annex I, paragraph 3(b),
pertaining to the location of the
sidelights; and Rule 21(c), pertaining to
the location and arc of visibility of the
sternlight. 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.
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.

ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary safety zone
within the Lake Moolvalya region of the
navigable waters of the Colorado River
in Parker, Arizona for the APBA
National Tour. This temporary safety
zone is necessary to provide for the
safety of the participants, crew,
spectators, participating vessels, and
other vessels and users of the waterway.
Persons and vessels are prohibited from
entering into, transiting through, or
anchoring within this safety zone unless
authorized by the Captain of the Port or
his designated representative.
DATES: This rule is effective 6 a.m. on
April 30, 2010 through 6 p.m. on
May 2, 2010.

Regulatory Information
The Coast Guard is issuing this
temporary final rule without prior
notice and opportunity to comment
pursuant to authority under section 4(a)
of the Administrative Procedure Act
(APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision
authorizes an agency to issue a rule
without prior notice and opportunity to
comment when the agency for good
cause finds that those procedures are
‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to the public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that
good cause exists for not publishing a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because
immediate action is necessary to ensure
the safety of vessels, spectators,
participants, and others in the vicinity
of the marine event on the dates and
times this rule will be in effect and
delay would be contrary to the public
interest.
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 because delaying the effective
date would be contrary to the public
interest, since immediate action is
needed to ensure the public’s safety.
Background and Purpose
RPM Racing Enterprises is sponsoring
the APBA National Tour, which is held
in Parker, Arizona. This temporary
safety zone is necessary to provide for
the safety of the participants, crew,
spectators, sponsor vessels, and other

users and vessels of the waterway. This
event involves powerboats racing along
a circular course. The size of the boats
vary from ten to 16 feet in length.
Approximately 150 boats will be
participating in this event. The sponsor
will provide two patrol and rescue boats
and two river closure boats.
Discussion of Rule
The Coast Guard is establishing a
safety zone that will be enforced from 6
a.m. to 6 p.m. on April 30, 2010 through
May 2, 2010. This safety zone is
necessary to provide for the safety of the
crews, spectators, participants, and
other vessels and users of the waterway.
Persons and vessels will be prohibited
from entering into, transiting through, or
anchoring with this safety zone unless
authorized by the Captain of the Port, or
his designated representative. The limits
of this temporary safety zone are the
portion of the Colorado River from
Headgate Dam to 0.5 miles north of Blue
Water Marina, Parker, Arizona.
Regulatory Analyses
We developed this rule after
considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking.
Below we summarize our analyses
based on 13 of these statutes or
executive orders.
Regulatory Planning and Review
This rule is not a significant
regulatory action under section 3(f) of
Executive Order 12866, Regulatory
Planning and Review, and does not
require an assessment of potential costs
and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that
Order. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under that
Order.
We expect the economic impact of
this proposed rule to be so minimal that
a full Regulatory Evaluation is
unnecessary. This determination is
based on the size and location of the
safety zone. The safety zone
encompasses only a small section of the
river, and will only be enforced during
the hours of 6 a.m. through 6 p.m.
during the effective period of the safety
zone. Commercial vessels will not be
