I. Regulatory History

    We did not publish a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this 
rule. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A) the Coast Guard finds this rule is 
exempt from notice and comment rulemaking requirements because these 
changes involve rules of agency organization, procedure, or practice. 
In addition, the Coast Guard finds notice and comment procedures are 
unnecessary under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) as this rule consists only of 
corrections and editorial, organizational, and conforming amendments 
and these changes will have no substantive effect on the public. 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 upon publication in 
the Federal Register.

II. Background

    Each year, the printed edition of Title 33 of the Code of Federal 
Regulations is recodified on July 1. This rule, which becomes effective 
June 2, 2011, makes technical and editorial corrections throughout 
Title 33. This rule does not create any substantive requirements.

III. Basis and Purpose

    This rule amends 33 CFR part 1 to reflect changes in agency 
organization by removing Sec.  1.01-60(a)(1)(ii) and combining Sec.  
1.01-60(a)(1)(i) with Sec.  1.01-60(a)(1). Because the Coast Guard is 
no longer a component of the Department of Transportation (DOT), DOT 
Order 5610.1C (Procedures for Considering Environmental Impacts) no 
longer applies.
    This rule revises 33 CFR part 27. The Coast Guard is adjusting 
fines and other civil monetary penalties to reflect the impact of 
inflation. These adjustments are made in accordance with the Federal 
Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990, as amended by the 
Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996, and implement the provisions 
of these statutes. These statutes require the Coast Guard to 
periodically adjust the civil monetary penalties for inflation by a 
method that is specifically prescribed within these statutes and which 
allows no discretion. The statutory method specifies the inflation 
measure to be used, the method for the calculation of the inflation 
adjustment, and the method for the numerical rounding of the results. 
The last inflation adjustments were made in 2010.
    The changes in Civil Penalties for calendar year 2011 are based on 
the change in CPI-U from June 2009 to June 2010. The recorded change in 
CPI-U during that period was 1.05%. Because of the small change in CPI-
U and the required rules for rounding, there was no change to any of 
the maximum penalty amounts from the previous adjustment.
    This rule amends Sec.  115.05 by replacing the term ``builder'' 
with the term ``applicant'' to clarify the Coast Guard's intent and 
make the affected provision consistent with other provisions in this 
section and other sections of part 115. This rule also corrects 
grammatical errors and details established requirements regarding the 
information needed on the plan sheets that accompany a bridge permit 
request. This rule removes Sec.  115.50(d) because the information it 
provides is already explained throughout the section.
    This rule amends 33 CFR part 117 to correct the names of the S14 
Bridge and the S1 Bridge and to provide an updated phone number to the 
Kansas City Southern automated bridge. Also ``Pelican Island Causeway'' 
is removed from the title of Sec.  117.977 and the section is 
redesignated to follow the alphabetical order of state waterways set 
out in this subpart.
    This rule amends parts 135, 140, 148, and 150 of Title 33 with an 
organizational name change from the Minerals Management Service (MMS) 
to the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management Regulation and Enforcement 
(BOEMRE).
    This rule amends paragraph 161.15(a) to correct a typographical 
error that erroneously omitted the words ``within a''. The correction 
to the section is not substantive and does not impose any new 
requirement, but clarifies the meaning of this portion of part 161.
    This rule amends 33 CFR part 164 to remove LORAN C from the list of 
options for vessel electronic position fixing devices. Removing LORAN C 
from 33 CFR part 164 will have no substantive effect on the public 
because the use of LORAN C has not been supported by the Coast Guard 
since February 2010, and this section is no longer applicable.

[[Page 31832]]

    This rule amends Title 33 to correct latitude/longitude coordinates 
of the Galveston Entrance Anchorage Areas in part 166 and the 
Chesapeake Bay: Eastern approach in part 167.
    This rule amends Title 33 to update internal Coast Guard office 
designations as well as certain personnel titles. Changes in personnel 
titles included in this rule are only technical revisions reflecting 
changes in agency procedure and organization, and do not indicate new 
authorities.
    This rule amends Title 33 to update various physical addresses for 
Coast Guard offices as well as those offices' contact information.
    Finally, this rule corrects non-substantive, typographical errors 
throughout Title 33.

IV. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and 
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses 
based on 13 of these statutes or executive orders.

A. Regulatory Planning and Review

    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. Because this rule involves non-
substantive changes and internal agency practices and procedures, it 
will not impose any additional costs on the public.

B. Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have 
considered whether this rule would have a significant economic impact 
on a substantial number of small entities. The term ``small entities'' 
comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations that are 
independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their fields, 
and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than 50,000.
    We estimate that the cost of this rule is minimal and should have 
little or no impact on small entities because the provisions of this 
rule are technical and non-substantive, and will have no substantive 
effect on the public and will impose no additional costs. Therefore, 
the Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this final rule 
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of 
small entities.

C. 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).

D. 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.

E. 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 (adjusted for 
inflation) 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.

F. Taking of Private Property

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

G. 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, 
eliminates ambiguity, and reduces burden.

H. 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.

I. 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.

J. 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. The Administrator of the Office of Information and 
Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy 
action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects 
under Executive Order 13211.

K. Technical Standards

    The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards 
in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress, 
through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why 
using these standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or 
otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical 
standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance, design, or 
operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related management 
systems practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus 
standards bodies.
    This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not 
consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

L. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security 
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which 
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental 
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have concluded 
that this action is one of a category of actions that do not 
individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human 
environment. This rule is categorically excluded under section 2.B.2, 
figure 2-1, paragraph (34)(a) of the Instruction. This rule involves 
regulations which are editorial, procedural, such as those updating 
addresses or establishing application procedures. An environmental 
analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion determination are

Note: The changes in Civil Penalties for calendar year 2011, shown
  above, are based on the change in CPI-U from June 2009 to June 2010.
  The recorded change in CPI-U during that period was 1.05%. Because of
  the small change in CPI-U and the required rules for rounding, there
  was no change to any of the maximum penalty amounts from the previous
  adjustment.
(1) Enacted under the Tariff Act of 1930, exempt from inflation
  adjustments.
(2) These penalties increased in accordance with the statute to $10,000
