Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 109 / Wednesday, June 6, 2018 / Rules and Regulations
J. Preemption
Section 26(a) of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C.
2075(a), provides that where a
‘‘consumer product safety standard
under [the Consumer Product Safety Act
(CPSA)]’’ is in effect and applies to a
product, no state or political
subdivision of a state may either
establish or continue in effect a
requirement dealing with the same risk
of injury, unless the state requirement is
identical to the federal standard. Section
26(c) of the CPSA also provides that
states or political subdivisions of states
may apply to the Commission for an
exemption from this preemption under
certain circumstances.
The Danny Keysar Child Product
Safety Notification Act (at section
104(b)(1)(B) of the CPSIA) refers to the
rules to be issued under that section as
‘‘consumer product safety standards,’’
thus, implying that the preemptive
effect of section 26(a) of the CPSA
would apply. Therefore, a rule issued
under section 104 of the CPSIA will
invoke the preemptive effect of section
26(a) of the CPSA when it becomes
effective.
K. Effective Date
Under the procedure set forth in
section 104(b)(4)(B) of the CPSIA, when
a voluntary standard organization
revises a standard upon which a
consumer product safety standard
issued under the Danny Keysar Child
Product Safety Notification Act was
based, the revision becomes the CPSC
standard within 180 days of notification
to the Commission, unless the
Commission determines that the
revision does not improve the safety of
the product, or the Commission sets a
later date in the Federal Register. The
Commission has not set a different
effective date. Thus, in accordance with
this provision, this rule takes effect 180
days after we received notification from
ASTM of revisions to these standards.
As discussed in the preceding section,
this is a direct final rule. Unless we
receive a significant adverse comment
within 30 days, the rule will become
effective on September 10, 2018.

32 CFR Part 706
Certifications and Exemptions Under
the International Regulations for
Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972
Department of the Navy, DoD.
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 (72 COLREGS), to reflect that
the Deputy Assistant Judge Advocate
General (DAJAG) (Admiralty and
Maritime Law) has determined that USS
CHARLESTON (LCS 18) 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 rule is to warn
mariners in waters where 72 COLREGS
apply.
DATES: This rule is effective June 6, 2018
and is applicable beginning May 24,
2018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

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 CHARLESTON (LCS 18) 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 2 (a)(i),
pertaining to the height of the forward
masthead light above the hull; Annex I,
paragraph 2(f)(i), pertaining to the

and obstructions; Annex I, paragraph
2(f)(ii), pertaining to the vertical
placement of task lights; Annex I,
paragraph 3(a), pertaining to the
location of the forward masthead light
in the forward quarter of the ship, and
the horizontal distance between the
forward and after masthead light; Rule
27(b)(i) and Annex I, paragraph 9(b)(i),
pertaining to the visibility of the middle
task light. 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.
