SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    On July 1, 2009, we published a direct final rule entitled 
``Anchorage Regulations; Port of New York'' in the Federal Register (74 
FR 31354). That direct final rule revised the southern boundary of 
Anchorage Ground No. 20-F such that it no longer interferes with the 
expanded Port Jersey Federal Channel, removing authorization for 
vessels to mistakenly anchor within a Federal Channel, and therefore 
removing this hazardous condition for vessels navigating in this area. 
Additionally, the direct final rule updated two geographic coordinates 
that make up the northern boundary. The physical location of these 
points is unchanged; however slight changes in the coordinates reflect 
the update to datum NAD 83.
    In the direct final rule we notified the public of our intent to 
make the rule effective on September 29, 2009, unless an adverse 
comment, or notice of intent to submit an adverse comment, was received 
on or before August 31, 2009. We did not receive any comments or 
notices of intent to submit an adverse comment on that rule. Therefore, 
under 33 CFR 1.05-55(d), we now confirm that the ``Anchorage 
Regulations; Port of New York'' rule became effective, as scheduled, on 
September 29, 2009.

    Dated: September 29, 2009.
Joseph L. Nimmich,
Rear Admiral, U.S. Coast Guard, Commander, First Coast Guard District.
