navigation position from 5 a.m. to 7 

p.m. from September 19, 2016, through 

September 30, 2016; with alternate dates 

from October 1, 2016, through October 

16, 2016. During this temporary 

deviation, the bridge will operate per 33 

CFR 117.5 from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. 

The James River is used by a variety 

of vessels including deep draft oceangoing vessels, U. S. government vessels, 

small commercial vessels, recreational 

vessels and tug and barge traffic. The 

Coast Guard has carefully coordinated 

the restrictions with waterway users. 

During closure periods a 55-foot by 

150-foot crane barge will be positioned 

alongside the bridge at various locations 

within the main navigation span of the 

bridge with the centerline of the barge 

perpendicular to the bridge. Vessels able 

to safely pass through the bridge in the 

closed position with the crane barge 

positioned alongside the bridge may do 

so at anytime. Vessels planning to 

transit through the bridge in the closed 

position with the crane barge positioned 

alongside the bridge shall contact the 

bridge tender to request information 

concerning the position of the crane 

barge to ensure safe passage. 

Vessels able to safely pass through the 

bridge in the closed position that 

require the crane barge to clear the main 

navigation span of the bridge, may do so 

at noon, daily, if at least two hours 

advance notice is given to the bridge 

tender. The bridge will open on signal 

for vessels that require an opening of the 

bridge and are unable to transit through 

the bridge during non-closure times due 

to draft and/or daylight restrictions, if 

notice is provided by 5 p.m. the day 

before the required bridge opening. The 

bridge will not be able to open for 

emergencies and there is no immediate 

alternate route for vessels to pass. The 

Coast Guard will also inform the users 

of the waterways through our Local and 

Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the 

change in operating schedule for the 

bridge so that vessel operators can 

arrange their transit to minimize any 

impact caused by the temporary 

deviation. 

In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), 

the drawbridge must return to its regular 

operating schedule immediately at the 

end of the effective period of this 

temporary deviation. This deviation 

from the operating regulations is 

authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

Air Plan Approval; Alabama: Volatile 

Organic Compounds 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Direct final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is approving a portion of 

a revision to the Alabama State 

Implementation Plan (SIP) submitted by 

the Alabama Department of 

Environmental Management (ADEM) on 

May 8, 2013. The revision modifies the 

definition of ‘‘volatile organic 

compounds’’ (VOC). Specifically, the 

revision adds one compound to the list 

of those excluded from the VOC 

definition on the basis that this 

compound makes a negligible 

contribution to tropospheric ozone 

formation. This action is being taken 

pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA or 

Act). 

DATES: This direct final rule is effective 

November 15, 2016 without further 

notice, unless EPA receives adverse 

comment by October 17, 2016. If EPA 

receives such comments, it will publish 

a timely withdrawal of the direct final 

rule in the Federal Register and inform 

the public that the rule will not take 

effect.
