SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Regulatory Information

    We did not publish a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this 
regulation. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good 
cause exists for not publishing an NPRM. This rule consists only of 
corrections and editorial and conforming amendments to title 33 of the 
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). These changes will have no 
substantive effect on the public and publishing an NPRM and providing 
an opportunity for public comment is unnecessary. Under 5 U.S.C. 
553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that, for the same reasons, good cause 
exists for making this rule effective less than 30 days after 
publication in the Federal Register.

Discussion of the Rule

    Each year title 33 of the Code of Federal Regulations is recodified 
on July 1. This rule makes editorial changes throughout the title, 
corrects addresses, updates cross-references, and makes other technical 
and editorial corrections to be included in the recodification. It does 
not change any substantive requirements of existing regulations. Some 
editorial changes are discussed individually in the following 
paragraphs.
    Sections 1.07-90 and 1.07-95. These sections are amended to 
incorporate the recent delegation to Coast Guard Area and Maintenance & 
Logistics Command Commanders to refer civil penalty cases to the 
Department of Justice.
    Part 25. This part, on the procedures for the administrative 
settlement of claims against the Coast Guard, is amended to reference 
the separate set of requirements for claims against the Oil Spill 
Liability Trust Fund in 33 CFR part 136 and to update various 
addresses.
    Section 64.13. The reference in paragraph (a) to ``Sec. 64.10-1'' 
is corrected to read ``Sec. 64.11'', because Sec. 64.10-1 was 
redesignated as Sec. 64.11 in 57 FR 43402, September 21, 1992.
    Section 100.901. The entries in table 1 for ``Geneva Offshore Grand 
Prix,'' ``Offshore Series Grand Prix,'' ``Cleveland Charity Classic,'' 
and ``Cleveland Offshore Grand Prix'' are removed because these events 
have not been held for several years and no longer qualify for 
inclusion in this list of annually recurring events.
    Sections 120.305, 120.307, and 120.309. The function of examining 
passenger vessel security plans was transferred from the National 
Maritime Center to the Marine Safety Center.
    Section 165.903. This section lists the geographical coordinates 
defining the location of certain safety zones in the Cleveland, Ohio, 
area. In addition to listing a coordinate, this section identifies 
familiar structures, such as marinas or restaurants in the area to help 
the boater more easily locate the point. Some of the structures 
mentioned have been renamed. This rule incorporates the new names. The 
actual location of the safety zones, as identified by the coordinates, 
is not being changed.
    Sections 159.4, 159.12, 159.15, 159.17, 159.19, and 159.97. These 
address changes result from the transfer of the responsibility for 
equipment approvals from Commmandant (G-MSE) to the Engineering Systems 
Division of the Marine Safety Center.
    Part 165, subpart F. The heading ``Thirteenth Coast Guard 
District'' was incorrectly placed in the CFR so as to include 
Secs. 165.1115 and 165.1116 in the wrong Coast Guard District. This 
change corrects that error.
    Part 173, appendix A. Because the vessel numbering and casualty 
reporting systems for Alaska and the Northern Mariana Islands are now 
approved, their names are added to the list of State issuing and 
reporting authorities in appendix A.

Regulatory Evaluation

    This rule is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under section 
3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, and does 
not require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 
6(a)(3) of that Order. The Office of Management and Budget has not 
reviewed it 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). We expect 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 calls for no new collection of information under the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132, 
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local 
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial 
direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this rule under 
that Order and have determined that it does not have implications for 
federalism.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538) 
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary 
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may 
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in 
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 or more in any 
one year. Though this rule will not result in such an expenditure, we 
do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in this preamble.

Taking of Private Property

    This rule will not effect a taking of private property or otherwise 
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental 
Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property 
Rights.

Civil Justice Reform

    This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) 
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation, 
eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

Protection of Children

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection 
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule 
is not an economically significant rule and does not create an 
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may 
disproportionately affect children.

Indian Tribal Governments

    This rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order 
13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments, 
because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more 
Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and 
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities 
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.

[[Page 33639]]

Energy Effects

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions 
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ``significant 
energy action'' under that order because it is not a ``significant 
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to 
have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use 
of energy. It has not been designated by the Administrator of the 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs as a significant energy 
action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects 
under Executive Order 13211.

Environment

    We have considered the environmental impact of this rule and 
concluded that, under figure 2-1, paragraphs (34)(a) and (b) of 
Commandant Instruction M16475.lC, this rule is categorically excluded 
from further environmental documentation. These regulations are 
editorial or procedural and concern internal agency functions and 
organization. A ``Categorical Exclusion Determination'' is available in 
the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.
