Certifications and Exemptions Under

Final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Department of the Navy
(DoN) is amending its certifications and
exemptions under the International
Regulations for Preventing Collisions at
Sea, 1972, as amended (72 COLREGS),
to reflect that the Deputy Assistant
Judge Advocate General (DAJAG)
(Admiralty and Maritime Law) has
determined that USS CORONADO (LCS
4) 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

72 COLREGS apply.

2015 and is applicable beginning April
1, 2015.

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 CORONADO (LCS 4) 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 3(c),
pertaining to the task light’s horizontal
distance from the fore and aft centerline
of the vessel in the athwartship
direction. 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 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.
