Editorial Changes and Conforming Amendments

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

references, and other technical corrections requested by the Federal 
Register. This rule makes no substantive changes to current 
regulations.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This rule is effective on September 29, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Unless otherwise indicated, documents referred to in this 
preamble are available for inspection or copying at the office of the 
Executive Secretary, Marine Safety Council (G-LRA/3406), U.S. Coast 
Guard Headquarters, 2100 Second Street SW., room 3406, Washington, DC

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Drafting Information

    The principal persons involved in drafting this document are Janet 
Walton, Project Manager, Standards Evaluation and Development Division, 
and C.G. Green, Project Counsel, Office of Chief Counsel.

Background and Purpose

    Each year Title 46 of the Code of Federal Regulations is recodified 
on October 1. This rule makes miscellaneous editorial changes and 
conforming amendments, including changes brought about by the 
reorganization of the Office of Marine Safety, Security and 
Environmental Protection (G-M) at Coast Guard Headquarters, to be 
included in the 1995 recodification of Title 46.
    Although the office of G-M recently went through a comprehensive 
reorganization, its functions are unchanged. This rule reflects the 
redistribution of office functions and responsibilities to the three 
new directorates and their subordinate divisions in the Office. 
Paragraph (b)(1) of Sec. 1.01-10 has been rewritten to describe the new 
directorates and divisions and nomenclature changes have been made 
throughout the Title. These new organizational elements have been 
functioning since August 1, 1995, and this document will update their 
descriptions in the Code of Federal Regulations.
    The rule also makes editorial changes throughout the title to 
correct addresses, update cross-references, and other technical 
corrections requested by the Federal Register. The rule does not change 
any substantive requirements of existing regulations.
    Since this amendment relates to departmental management, 
organization, procedure, and practice, notice and comment on it are 
unnecessary and it may be made effective in fewer than 30 days after 
publication in the Federal Register. Therefore, this final rule is 
effective upon publication in the Federal Register.

Regulatory Evaluation

    This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) 
of Executive Order 12866 and does not require an assessment of 
potential costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that order. It 
has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget under that 
order. It is not significant under the regulatory policies and 
procedures of the Department of Transportation (DOT) (44 FR 11040; 
February 26, 1979). The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this 
rule to be so minimal that a full Regulatory Evaluation under paragraph 
10e of the regulatory policies and procedures of DOT is unnecessary. As 
this rule involves internal agency practices and procedures, it will 
not impose any costs on the public.

Collection of Information

    This rule contains no collection-of-information requirements under 
the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).

Federalism

    The Coast Guard has analyzed this rule under the principles and 
criteria contained in Executive Order 12612 and has determined that 
this rule does not have sufficient federalism implications to warrant 
the preparation of a Federalism Assessment.

Environment

    The Coast Guard considered the environmental impact of this rule 
and concluded that under paragraph 2.B.2 of Commandant Instruction 
M16475.1B, this rule is categorically excluded from further 
environmental documentation. This exclusion is in accordance with 
paragraphs 2.B.2.e. (34) (a) and (b), concerning regulations that are 
editorial or procedural and concerning internal agency functions or 
organization. A ``Categorical Exclusion Determination'' is available in 
the docket for inspection or copying where indicated under ADDRESSES.
