Effects on the Energy Supply (E.O.

Consultation With Indian Tribes (E.O.
13175)
Under the criteria in E.O. 13175, we
have evaluated this final rule and
determined that it has no substantial
effects on Federally recognized Indian
Tribes.
This final rule is not a significant
energy action under the definition in
E.O. 13211. A Statement of Energy
Effects is not required.
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
This final rulemaking does not
contain new information collection
requirements; therefore, an OMB
submission under the PRA (44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.) is not required. The PRA
provides that an agency may not
conduct or sponsor a collection of
information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
Until OMB approves a collection of
information and assigns a control
number, you are not required to
respond. The revisions in this final
rulemaking refer to, but will not change,
information collection requirements in
30 CFR part 285. The OMB approved
the information collection requirements
contained in 30 CFR part 285 under
OMB Control Number 1010–0176
(expiration 3/31/2013).

National Environmental Policy Act of
1969
This final rule does not constitute a
major Federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human
environment. BOEMRE has analyzed
this final rule under the criteria of the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) and the Department’s
regulations implementing NEPA. This
final rule meets the criteria set forth at
43 CFR 46.210(i) for a Departmental
Categorical Exclusion in that this final
rule is ‘‘* * * of an administrative,
financial, legal, technical, or procedural
nature; or whose environmental effects
are too broad, speculative, or conjectural
to lend themselves to meaningful
analysis * * *.’’ Further, BOEMRE has
analyzed this final rule to determine if
it meets any of the extraordinary
circumstances that will require an
environmental assessment or an
environmental impact statement as set
forth in 43 CFR 46.215 and concluded
that this final rule, being purely
procedural, does not meet any of the
criteria for extraordinary circumstances.
Data Quality Act
In developing this final rule, BOEMRE
did not conduct or use a study,
experiment, or survey requiring peer
review under the Data Quality Act (Pub.
L. 106–554, app. C § 515, 114 Stat. 2763,
2763A–153–154).

Final rule; correcting
amendment.
ACTION:
In the Federal Register of
April 21, 2011, the Department of the
Navy (DoN) published a final rule
concerning certifications and
exemptions under the International
Regulations for Preventing Collisions at
Sea, 1972 (72 COLREGS). That
document contained incorrect
information concerning side lights arc of
visibility; rule 21(b). This correcting
amendment corrects that information.
SUMMARY:
DATES:
Effective Date: May 16, 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Lieutenant Jaewon Choi, 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
USS MICHIGAN (SSBN 727) and USS
Georgia (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.
