Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 205 / Tuesday, October 23, 2018 / Rules and Regulations
X. 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.
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.
XI. 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 section 104(b) of the
CPSIA 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 January 15, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: BNSF has
requested a temporary deviation from
the operating schedule for the BNSF
Bridge 37.0, mile 1.0, crossing
Steamboat Slough (Snohomish River),
near Marysville, WA. BNSF requested
for BNSF Bridge 37.0 be allowed to
remain in the closed-to-navigation
position for swing span maintenance.
This maintenance will improve the
reliability of the bridge for marine
openings. The normal operating
schedule for the subject bridge is in 33
CFR 117.1059. BNSF Bridge 37.0 is a
swing bridge and provides 8 feet of
vertical clearance above mean high
water elevation while in the closed-tonavigation position.
This deviation allows the BNSF
Bridge 37.0 to remain in the closed-tonavigation position, and need not open
for maritime traffic from 11 a.m. on
November 26, 2018 to 3 p.m. on
December 14, 2018 per the table below:

other times. Vessels able to pass through
the subject bridge in the closed-tonavigation position may do so at any

openings during this time of year. No
immediate alternate route for vessels to
pass is available on this part of the river.
The Coast Guard will also inform the
users of the waterways through our

of the change in operating schedule for
the bridge so that vessels can arrange
their transits to minimize any impact
caused by the temporary deviation.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Louisiana Department of Transportation
