SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 2, 2012, we published a 

Notice of Proposed Rulemaking entitled 

‘‘Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Bear 

Creek, Dundalk, MD’’ in the Federal 

Register (77 FR 5201). The rulemaking 

concerned would alter the current four 

hour advance notice requirement for a 

bridge opening, found in 33 CFR 

117.543(b), to a 48-hour advance notice. 

Baltimore County requested to reduce 

the necessity for bridge openings based 

on bridge logs provided over a two year 

period. However, prior to the 

publication of the notice of proposed 

rulemaking the bridge owner displayed 

on the Wise Avenue Bridge signage that 

stated a 48-hour advance notice was 

required to open the draw bridge. This 

signage portrayed improper operational 

information since the current operation 

regulation had not changed. The Coast 

Guard determined the signage that 

stated a 48-hour advance notice was 

required for a bridge opening was 

misleading to the public and 

navigational users. 

Withdrawal 

Baltimore County, responsible for the 

operation of the Wise Avenue Bridge, 

had requested advance notification of 

vessel openings. Following publication 

of the notice of proposed rulemaking, 

the Coast Guard received two comments 

opposing changes to the regulation. 

Both comments felt the 48-hour advance 

notice was unnecessary and too 

burdensome to the waterway users. One 

of the comments stated signage had 

been placed on the bridge providing 

information misleading to the public. 

Baltimore County admitted establishing 

signage on the bridge prior to the 

publication of the notice of proposed 

rulemaking citing the bridge would 

open with a 48-hour notice prior to 

approval from the regulatory process. 

The second comment stated that a 24- 

hour advance notice would be better 

than the proposed 48 hours. Due to the 

bridge owner displaying misleading and 

inaccurate signage during a public 

comment period and prior to any 

change in the bridge opening 

regulations, the Coast Guard is 

withdrawing the proposed rule. The 

owner may, however, request a new 

notice of proposed rulemaking for a 

future period in which the inaccurate 

signage is not posted. 

Authority 

We issue this notice of withdrawal 

under the authority of 33 U.S.C. 499; 33 

CFR 1.05–1; Department of Homeland 

Security Delegation No. 0170.1. 

Dated: December 4, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Office of the Federal Register 

inadvertently published the November

from Coal- and Oil-fired Electric Utility 

Steam Generating Units and Standards 

of Performance for Fossil-Fuel-Fired

Generating Units’’ in the ‘‘Rules and 

Regulations’’ section of the Federal 

Register, rather than in the ‘‘Proposed 

Rules’’ section. The Office of Federal 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with 
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 239 / Wednesday, December 12, 2012 / Proposed Rules 73969 

Register issued a correction document 

on December 5, 2012 (77 FR 72294). The 

EPA has decided to extend the public

in light of the clerical error. Therefore, 

the public comment period will end on 

January 7, 2013, rather than on 

December 31, 2012. 

How can I get copies of this document

Summary of the Order 

1. On October 2, 2012, the 

Commission released a Notice of 

Proposed Rulemaking (‘‘NPRM’’) to 

implement an incentive auction of 

broadcast television spectrum. The 

NPRM set deadlines for filing comments 

and reply comments at December 21, 

2012, and February 19, 2013, 

respectively. 

2. On November 20, 2012, the 

National Association of Broadcasters 

(NAB) and CTIA—The Wireless 

Association (CTIA) filed a joint request 

to extend the comment and reply 

comment deadlines to January 25, 2013 

and March 26, 2013. NAB and CTIA 

state that an extension of time is 

warranted due to the complex 

economic, engineering, and policy 

issues presented by the NPRM. We grant 

the requested extension. As set forth in 

§ 1.46 of the Commission’s rules, the 

Commission’s policy is that extensions 

of time for filing comments in 

rulemaking proceedings shall not be 

routinely granted. In this case, however, 

an extension of the comment periods is 

warranted to provide commenters with 

sufficient time to prepare comments and 

reply comments that fully respond to 

the NPRM. 

3. Accordingly, it is ordered that, 

pursuant to section 4(i) of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i), and §§ 0.61,

rules, 47 CFR 0.61, 0.283, and 1.46, the 

Motion for Extension of Time filed by 

NAB and CTIA is granted, and the 

deadlines to file comments and reply 

comments in this proceeding are 

extended to January 25, 2013 and 

March12, 2013, respectively.
