[Federal Register Volume 60, Number 32 (Thursday, February 16, 1995)] [Rules and Regulations] [Pages 8942-8943] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 95-3833] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 33 CFR Part 161 [CGD09-94-036] RIN 2115-AF01 Temporary Speed Limits for the St. Marys River; Correction AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT. ACTION: Final rules. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This document corrects the temporary final regulations [CGD09- 94-036] which were published on Monday, January 23, 1995, (60 FR 4378) concerning the Speed Limits for the St. Marys River. EFFECTIVE DATE: February 16, 1995. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Irene Hoffman, Project Manager, Vessel Traffic Services Division (G-NVT), at (202) 267-6277. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background In accordance with an agreement reached on June 29, 1993, with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, the Coast Guard may make temporary changes to the speed regulations for periods during the winter season when icebreaking is being conducted in the vicinity of Neebish Island, St. Marys River, Michigan, as a precautionary measure to minimize any possible damage to the environment. In 59 FR 36324 of July 15, 1994; sections 161.1 through 161.60 of 33 CFR Part 161 were revised. In this document revising Part 161, speed limit regulations for the St. Marys River were placed in 33 CFR Part 162. On January 23, 1995, a document was published at page 4378 to amend 33 CFR Part 161. This document, intended to address temporary speed limits in the St. Marys River, amended Part 161 by suspending Sec. 161.880 and adding Sec. 161.881. The suspension and addition were effective from December 29, 1994 through April 15, 1995. Need for Correction The January 23, 1995, amendments did not make the needed temporary changes to the St. Marys River speed limits. That publication, therefore, needs to be revoked. A new temporary rulemaking addressing the St. Marys River speed limits in 33 CFR 162.117 will be prepared for publication. For this reason, under the authority of 33 U.S.C. 1231 and 49 CFR 1.46, the suspension of Sec. 161.880 is terminated and Sec. 161.881 is removed. [[Page 8943]] Dated: February 8, 1995. G.A.
