DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Department of the Army, Corps of Engineers

33 CFR Part 334


United States Navy Restricted Area, Menominee River, Marinette 
Marine Corporation Shipyard, Marinette, WI; Corrections

AGENCY: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, DoD.

ACTION: Correcting amendments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers published a document in the 
Federal Register on May 24, 2011 (76 FR 30024), amending its 
regulations to establish a restricted area in the waters of the 
Menominee River at the Marinette Marine Corporation Shipyard in 
Marinette, Wisconsin. That document inadvertently included latitude and 
longitude coordinates for the restricted area boundary that resulted in 
encroachment into a Federal navigation project. This document corrects 
the final rule by revising the latitude and longitude coordinates 
listed in Sec.  334.815 (a) to reduce the restricted area so that it 
does not encroach on the Federal navigation project. The document also 
listed the Department of the Navy organization responsible for 
administration and enforcement of the

[[Page 20296]]

restricted area as the Supervisor of Shipbuilding, Conversion, and 
Repair Gulf Coast (SUPSHIP Gulf Coast). After the document was 
published, the Department of the Navy revised the mission, functions, 
and tasks of the Supervisors of Shipbuilding, Conversion and Repair 
organization. This organizational revision changed the administrative 
and enforcement responsibilities for the subject restricted area from 
SUPSHIP Gulf Coast to SUPSHIP Bath, Maine. This document corrects the 
final rule by revising Sec.  334.815 (b) and (c) to reflect the 
organizational change.

DATES: Effective date: April 4, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers published a 
final rule in the Federal Register on May 24, 2011 (76 FR 30024), and 
later determined that correcting amendments need to be made to address 
encroachment into a Federal navigation channel and a change in the 
enforcing authority that occurred as a result of the Department of the 
Navy revising the mission, functions, and tasks of the Supervisors of 
Shipbuilding, Conversion and Repair (SUPSHIPs) organization. That 
organizational revision changed administrative and enforcement 
responsibilities for the subject restricted area from SUPSHIP Gulf 
Coast to SUPSHIP Bath, Maine. This correcting amendment changes the 
latitude and longitude coordinates in Sec.  334.815(a) so that the 
restricted area will not encroach into the Federal navigation project. 
This correcting amendment also changes the administrative and 
enforcement responsibilities in Sec.  334.815(b) and (c) for the 
subject restricted area from SUPSHIP Gulf Coast to SUPSHIP Bath, Maine.
