33 CFR Part 334 

Disestablishment of Restricted Area 

for Pascagoula Naval Station, 

Pascagoula, MS 

AGENCY: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, 

DoD. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Navy (USN) 

requested that the U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers (Corps) disestablish the 

restricted area at the former Naval 

Station Pascagoula in Pascagoula, 

Mississippi. The restricted area was 

established on November 9, 1992. The 

purpose of the restricted area was to 

reduce safety hazards and security risks 

and protect persons and property from 

dangers encountered in the area. As a 

result of the 2005 Base Realignment and 

Closure Act, the Naval Station was 

closed on June 1, 2007, and the property 

transferred to the State of Mississippi. In 

the ‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of 

Federal Register, we are publishing the 

restricted area disestablishment as a 

direct final rule without prior proposal 

because we view this as a noncontroversial adjustment to our 

restricted area regulations and 

anticipate no adverse comment. We 

have explained our reasons for this 

approval in the preamble to the direct 

final rule. If we receive no adverse 

comment, we will not take further 

action on this rule and it will go into 

effect. If we receive adverse comment, 

we will withdraw the direct final rule 

and it will not take effect. We will 

address all public comments in a 

subsequent final rule based on this 

proposed rule. We will not institute a 

second comment period on this action. 

Any parties interested in commenting 

must do so at this time. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

received by September 28, 2009. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

David Olson, Headquarters, Operations 

and Regulatory Community of Practice, 

Washington, DC at 202–761–4922 or Mr. 

John B. McFadyen, U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers, Mobile District, at 251–690– 

3222. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

document concerns the 

‘‘Disestablishment of Restricted Area for 

Pascagoula Naval Station, Pascagoula, 

MS’’ rule. For further information,
