This deviation allows the new drawbridge to remain closed-to-navigation each day from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. beginning on June 26, 2006 until and including August 25, 2006, to facilitate completion of the Outer Loop portion for the new Woodrow Wilson Bridge construction project.

This rule temporarily suspends the permanent special local regulations for the Suncoast Offshore Challenge and the Suncoast Offshore Grand Prix in the Gulf of Mexico near Sarasota, Florida.

This year, the sponsor has decided to combine the events into a single day, reduce the length of the racecourse, and modify the times of the event. Therefore, this rule also adds new temporary special local regulations to account for the changes and provide for the safety of life for the participating vessels, spectators, and mariners on the navigable waters of the United States during the event.

This Notice alerts the public that Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) issued under the designation of El Salvador for TPS and bearing an expiration date of either July 5, 2006 or September 9, 2006 are automatically extended until March 9, 2007. Prior to the most recent extension of El Salvador for Temporary Protected Status (TPS), the designation of El Salvador for TPS was set to expire on September 9, 2006. On June 15, 2006, a Notice was published in the Federal Register to inform the public that the Secretary extended the designation of El Salvador for TPS for 12 months until September 9, 2007. The June 15, 2006 Notice set forth procedures for nationals of El Salvador (or aliens having no nationality who last habitually resided in El Salvador) with TPS to re-register and to apply for an extension of their EADs. The June 15, 2006 Notice also automatically extended until March 9, 2007 the validity of EADs issued under the designation of El Salvador for TPS that bear an expiration date of September 9, 2006. Certain El Salvadoran TPS beneficiaries, however, received EADs with an expiration date of July 5, 2006, and thus are not covered by this automatic extension provision. This Notice alerts the public that EADs issued under the designation of El Salvador for TPS and bearing an expiration date of either July 5, 2006 or September 9, 2006 are automatically extended until March 9, 2007 and explains how TPS beneficiaries and their employers may determine which EADs are automatically extended.
