SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On April 12, 2013, we published a notice of proposed rulemaking 
entitled ``Special Local Regulations; Marine Events, Breton Bay; St. 
Mary's County, Leonardtown, MD'' in the Federal Register (78 FR 21864). 
The rulemaking concerned the Coast Guard's proposal to establish 
temporary special local regulations on specified waters of Breton Bay, 
in St. Mary's County, MD, effective from 8 a.m. on July 13, 2013 to 5 
p.m. on July 14, 2013. The regulated area included all waters of Breton 
Bay, from shoreline to shoreline, within an area bounded to the east by 
a line drawn along latitude--38[deg]16'45'' N, and bounded to the west 
by a line drawn along longitude 076[deg]38'30'' W, located at 
Leonardtown, MD. The regulations were needed to temporarily restrict 
vessel traffic during the event to provide for the safety of 
participants, spectators and other transiting vessels.

Withdrawal

    The Coast Guard is withdrawing this rulemaking because the event 
has been cancelled.

Authority

    We issue this notice of withdrawal under the authority of 33 U.S.C. 
1233.

    Dated: June 3, 2013.
