SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coast Guard is extending the comment
period on the request for comments entitled ``Evaluation of Existing
Coast Guard Regulations, Guidance Documents, Interpretative Documents,
and Collections of Information'' that we published in the Federal
Register on June 8, 2017 (82 FR 26632). We are extending the comment
period by 2 months to allow interested persons more time to comment.
You may now submit comments through September 11, 2017.
In our June 8, 2017 request for comments, which is available via
www.regulations.gov in docket USCG-2017-0480, we requested your
comments on Coast Guard regulations, guidance documents, and
interpretative documents that you believe should be repealed, replaced,
or modified. Also, we welcome your comments on our approved collections
of information, regardless of whether the collection is associated with
a regulation. We took this action in response to Executive Orders
13771, Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs; 13777,
Enforcing the Regulatory Reform Agenda; and 13783, Promoting Energy
Independence and Economic Growth. We plan to use your comments to
assist us in our work with the Department of Homeland Security's
Regulatory Reform Task Force.
Your comments should help us with our ongoing task of identifying
and alleviating unnecessary regulatory burdens. After assessing
responses to our June 8 request for comments, we may issue a similar
request for comments next year.
