DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Certifications and Exemptions Under
the International Regulations for
Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972
Department of the Navy, DoD.
Final rule; change.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
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 the
conversion of several Navy vessels from
ballistic missile submarines (SSBN) to
guided missile submarines (SSGN). The
Deputy Assistant Judge Advocate
General (DAJAG) (Admiralty and
Maritime Law) has determined that
certain vessels of the SSGN 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 function as
naval ships. The intended effect of this
rule is to warn mariners in waters where
72 COLREGS apply.
DATES: This rule is effective April 21,
2011 and is applicable beginning April
13, 2011.

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
USS OHIO (SSBN 726), USS MICHIGAN
(SSBN 727), USS FLORIDA (SSBN 728),
and USS GEROGIA (SSBN 729) are
vessels of the Navy which, due to their
special construction and purpose,
cannot fully comply with specific
provisions of 72 COLREGS without
interfering with their special function as

naval ships. The vessels have been
converted from SSBN’s to SSGN’s and
this amendment will edit the
classification of the vessels to accurately
reflect their new designation as SSGN’s.
This amendment does not change the
vessels’ previously noted deviations
from 72 COLREGS. The DAJAG
(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 previous and unchanged
technical findings that the placement of
lights on these vessels in a manner
differently from that prescribed herein
will adversely affect the vessel’s ability
to perform its military functions.
Furthermore, this amendment merely
changes the classification of these
vessels and does not reflect any changes
to the placement of lights on any of
these vessels.
