Download as PDF 26782 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 91 / Wednesday, May 12, 2010 / Notices 1 Prepared by the U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. Department of Commerce (Census Bureau), from three-year estimates from the 2006, 2007 and 2008 American Community Surveys (ACSs). These estimates, like those derived from any survey, are subject to two types of errors: (1) Nonsampling Error, which consists of random errors that increase the variability of the data and non-random errors that consistently direct the data into a specific direction; and (2) Sampling Error, which consists of the error that arises from the use of probability sampling to create the sample. 2 These figures were calculated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families, Office of Community Services, Division of Energy Assistance (DEA) by multiplying the estimated State median income for a four-person family for each State by 60 percent. 3 To adjust for different sizes of family, 45 CFR 96.85 calls for multiplying 60 percent of a State’s estimated median income for a four-person family by the following percentages: 52 percent for one person, 68 percent for two persons, 84 percent for three persons, 100 percent for four persons, 116 percent for five persons, and 132 percent for six persons. For each additional family member above six persons, 45 CFR 96.85 calls for adding 3 percentage points to the percentage for a six-person family (132 percent) and multiply the new percentage by 60 percent of a State’s estimated median income for a four-person family. www.regulations.gov, including any personal information provided.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background and Purpose A Certificate of Alternative Compliance, as allowed under Title 33, Code of Federal Regulation, Parts 81 and 89, has been issued for the offshore supply vessel JOSHUA CANDIES, O.N. PO 00000 Frm 00078 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 26783 1219732. Full compliance with 72 COLREGS and Inland Rules Act will hinder the vessel’s ability to conduct loading and unloading operations. The horizontal distance between the forward and aft masthead lights may be 6.506 meters. Placing the aft masthead light at the horizontal distance from the forward masthead light as required by Annex I, paragraph 3(a) of the 72 COLREGS would result in an aft masthead light location directly over the aft cargo deck where it would interfere with loading and unloading operations. The Certificate of Alternative Compliance allows for the horizontal separation of the forward and aft masthead lights to deviate from the requirements of Annex I, paragraph 3(a) of 72 COLREGS. This notice is issued under authority of 33 U.S.C. 1605(c), and 33 CFR 81.18. Dated: April 15, 2010. J.W.
