32 CFR Part 706
Certifications and Exemptions Under
the International Regulations for
Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972
Department of the Navy, DoD.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Department of the Navy
(DoN) 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 (DAJAG) (Admiralty and
Maritime Law) has determined that
certain vessels of the PC–1 Class are
vessels of the Navy which, due to their
special construction and purpose,
cannot fully comply with certain
provisions of the 72 COLREGS without
interfering with their special functions
as naval ships. The intended effect of

this rule is to warn mariners in waters
where 72 COLREGS apply.
DATES: This rule is effective September
24, 2010 and is applicable beginning
September 8, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Lieutenant Commander Ted Cook,
JAGC, U.S. Navy, Admiralty Attorney,
(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 number: 202–
685–5040.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to the authority granted in 33 U.S.C.
1605, the DoN amends 32 CFR part 706.
This amendment provides notice that
the DAJAG (Admiralty and Maritime
Law), under authority delegated by the
Secretary of the Navy, has certified that
certain vessels of the PC–1 Class are
vessels of the Navy which, due to their
special construction and purpose,
cannot fully comply with the following
specific provisions of 72 COLREGS
without interfering with their special
function as naval ships: Rule 21(a)
pertaining to the arc of visibility of a
masthead light. The DAJAG (Admiralty
and Maritime Law) has also certified
that the lights involved are located in
PO 00000
Frm 00019
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
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.
