Department of Homeland Security March 25, 2011 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On November 24, 2008, FEMA published in the Federal Register a proposed rule that contained an erroneous table. This notice provides corrections to that table, to be used in lieu of the information published at 73 FR 70944. The table provided here represents the flooding sources, location of referenced elevations, effective and modified elevations, and communities affected for White County, Arkansas, and Incorporated Areas. Specifically, it addresses the following flooding sources: Deener Creek, Gum Creek Flooding Effects, Little Red River, Overflow Creek Tributary, Red Cut Slough, Red Cut Slough Tributary, Red Cut Slough Tributary 2, and Red Cut Slough Tributary A.

The Coast Guard is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register on December 14, 2010. That rule amended Coast Guard regulations governing the maximum weight and number of passengers that may safely be permitted on board a vessel and other stability regulations, including increasing the Assumed Average Weight per Person (AAWPP) to 185 lb. The rule also improved and updated intact stability and subdivision and damage stability regulations.
