RNA and must make a SECURITE ́ call 

when approaching the RNA to 

announce intentions and work out 

passing arrangements. 

(D) Commercial tows transiting the 

RNA must use wire rope or appropriate 

alternatives to ensure electrical 

connectivity between all segments of the 

tow. 

(E) All vessels are prohibited from 

loitering in the RNA. 

(F) Vessels may enter the RNA for the 

sole purpose of transiting to the other 

side and must maintain headway 

throughout the transit. All vessels and 

persons are prohibited from dredging, 

laying cable, dragging, fishing, 

conducting salvage operations, or any 

other activity, which could disturb the 

bottom of the RNA. 

(G) Except for law enforcement and 

emergency response personnel, all 

personnel on vessels transiting the RNA 

should remain inside the cabin, or as 

inboard as practicable. If personnel 

must be on open decks, they must wear 

a Coast Guard approved personal 

flotation device. 

(H) Vessels may not moor or lay up 

on the right or left descending banks of 

the RNA. 

(I) Towboats may not make or break 

tows if any portion of the towboat or 

tow is located in the RNA. 

(J) Persons onboard any vessel 

transiting the RNA in accordance with 

this rule or otherwise are advised they 

do so at their own risk. 

(K) All vessels transiting the RNA are 

required to transit at a no wake speed 

but still maintain bare steerageway. 

(L)(1) All vessels are prohibited from 

transiting the restricted navigation area 

with any non-potable water on board if 

they intend to release that water in any 

form within, or on the other side of the 

restricted navigation area. Non-potable 

water includes, but is not limited to, any 

water taken on board to control or 

maintain trim, draft, stability, or stresses 

of the vessel. Likewise, it includes any 

water taken on board due to free 

communication between the hull of the 

vessel and exterior water. Potable water 

is water treated and stored aboard the 

vessel that is suitable for human 

consumption. 

(2) Vessels with non-potable water on 

board are permitted to transit the 

restricted navigation area if they have 

taken steps to prevent the release, in any 

form, of that water in or on the other 

side of the restricted navigation area. 

Alternatively, vessels with non-potable 

water on board are permitted to transit 

the restricted navigation area if they 

have plans to dispose of the water in a 

biologically sound manner. 

(3) Vessels with non-potable water 

aboard that intend to discharge on the 

other side of the restricted navigation 

area must contact the Coast Guard’s 

Ninth District Commander or his or her 

designated representatives prior to 

transit and obtain permission to transit 

and discharge. Examples of discharges 

that may be approved include plans to 

dispose of the water in a biologically 

sound manner or demonstrate through 

testing that the non-potable water does 

not contain potential live Silver or 

Asian carp, viable eggs, or gametes. 

(4) In accordance with the general 

regulations in § 165.23, entry into, 

transiting, or anchoring within this 

safety zone by vessels with non-potable 

water on board is prohibited unless 

authorized by the Coast Guard’s Ninth 

District Commander, his or her 

designated representatives, or an onscene representative. 

(5) The Captain of the Port, Lake 

Michigan, may further designate an ‘‘onscene’’ representative. The Captain of 

the Port, Lake Michigan, or the on-scene 

representative may be contacted via 

VHF–FM radio Channel 16 or through 

the Coast Guard Lake Michigan 

Command Center at (414) 747–7182. 

(b) Definitions. The following 

definitions apply to this section: 

Designated representative means the 

Captain of the Port Lake Michigan and 

Commanding Officer, Marine Safety 

Unit Chicago. 

On-scene representative means any 

Coast Guard commissioned, warrant or 

petty officer who has been designated 

by the Captain of the Port, Lake 

Michigan, to act on his or her behalf. 

The on-scene representative of the 

Captain of the Port, Lake Michigan, will 

be aboard a Coast Guard, Coast Guard 

Auxiliary, or other designated vessel or 

will be onshore and will communicate 

with vessels via VHF–FM radio or 

loudhailer. 

Vessel means every description of 

watercraft of other artificial contrivance 

used, or capable or being used, as a 

means of transportation on water. This 

definition includes, but is not limited 

to, barges. 

(c) Compliance. All persons and 

vessels must comply with this section 

and any additional instructions or 

orders of the Coast Guard’s Ninth 

District Commander or his or her 

designated representatives. Any person 

on board any vessel transiting this RNA 

in accordance with this rule or 

otherwise does so at his or her own risk. 

(d) Waiver. For any vessel, the Coast 

Guard’s Ninth District Commander or 

his or her designated representatives 

may waive any of the requirements of 

this section, upon finding that 

operational conditions or other 

circumstances are such that application 

of this section is unnecessary or 

impractical for the purposes of vessel 

and mariner safety.

Swim Across America Safety Zone 33 CFR 165.160 (3.1) ..................... • Location: Participants will swim between Glenn Cove and 

Larchmont, New York and an area of Hempstead Harbor between 

Glen Cove and the vicinity of Umbrella Point. This Safety Zone includes all waters within a 100-yard radius of each participating swimmer.

Under the provisions of 33 CFR

Spectator vessels may transit outside the 

safety zones but may not anchor, block,

assisted by other Federal, State, or local 

law enforcement agencies in enforcing 

this regulation.

Provisions, Federal Perkins Loan 

Program, Federal Family Education 

Loan Program, William D. Ford Federal 

Direct Loan Program, and Teacher 

Education Assistance for College and 

Higher Education Grant Program; 

Corrections 

AGENCY: Office of Postsecondary 

Education, Department of Education. 

ACTION: Final rule; correcting 

amendments. 

SUMMARY: In the Federal Register of 

February 14, 2018, the Department of 

Education (Department) published a 

final rule (the delay rule) delaying, until 

July 1, 2019, the effective date of 

selected provisions of the final 

regulations entitled Student Assistance 

General Provisions, Federal Perkins 

Loan Program, Federal Family 

Education Loan Program, William D. 

Ford Federal Direct Loan Program, and 

Teacher Education Assistance for 

College and Higher Education Grant 

Program (the 2016 final regulations), 

published in the Federal Register on 

November 1, 2016. This rule 

inadvertently omitted regulations from 

the list in the DATES section of 

regulations for which the effective date 

is delayed. This document removes the 

regulations that we intended to delay 

from the text of the Code of Federal 

Regulations and specifies July 1, 2019 as 

their effective date. 

DATES: This rule is effective July 19, 

2018 except for amendatory instruction 

3 which is effective July 1, 2019.

Education, 400 Maryland Avenue SW, 

Mail Stop 294–20, Washington, DC

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

delay rule (83 FR 6458), the list of 

regulations in the DATES section in the 

first column on page 6459, for which the 

effective date is delayed until July 1, 

2019, inadvertently excluded 

§ 685.300(b)(11), (b)(12), and (d) through 

(i). Those regulations were properly 

included in the list of regulations for 

which the effective date is delayed in 

the body of the document (in the third 

column of page 6459) and discussed 

elsewhere in the document. However, to 

effectuate this correction and restore the 

Code of Federal Regulations to properly 

reflect the delay, we are publishing 

amendatory language that will remove 

these provisions. 

Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking 

In accordance with the 

Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 

553, it is the Secretary’s practice to offer 

interested parties the opportunity to 

comment on proposed regulations. 

However, the actions in this document 

are merely to correct a technical error, 

and thus, the Secretary has determined 

that publication of a proposed rule is 

unnecessary under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B).

disabilities can obtain this document in
