BILLING CODE 4810-31-U DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR Minerals Management Service 30 CFR Part 250 RIN 1010-AC55 Oil and Gas and Sulphur Operations in the Outer Continental Shelf—Update of Documents Incorporated by Reference, Correction AGENCY: Minerals Management Service (MMS), Interior. ACTION: Correction to final regulations. SUMMARY: This document corrects the final rule titled “Update of Documents Incorporated by Reference,” which was published Tuesday, January 4, 2000 (65 FR 217). We are adding a citation to entries for two American Petroleum Institute
(API)Recommended Practices
(RP)in the table of Documents Incorporated by Reference and correcting a section of the regulations to incorporate by reference the two documents. EFFECTIVE DATE: February 3, 2000. The incorporation by reference of publications listed in the regulation is approved by the Director of the **Federal Register** as of February 3, 2000. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Alexis London, Rules Processing Team, Engineering and Operations Division,
(703)787-1600. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The final regulations that are the subject of these corrections updated one API document incorporated by reference (API RP 500) and added a new document incorporated by reference (API RP 505). These regulations affect all operators and lessees on the Outer Continental Shelf. The regulation at 30 CFR 250.410(e) on safety precautions in mud-handling areas currently incorporates by reference the out-of-date document “API RP 500B.” The final regulations should have revised § 250.410(e) to reference “API RP 500” or “API RP 505” as it did for various other sections of our regulations. The list of citations for API RP 500 and API RP 505 in the table of documents incorporated by reference in § 250.198(e) should have then included § 250.410(e). Need for Correction As published, the final regulations contain errors that may prove to be misleading and are in need of clarification. Correction of Publication Accordingly, the publication of the final regulations on January 4, 2000, which were the subject of FR Doc. 00-26, is corrected as follows: § 250.198 [Corrected] On pages 218 and 219, in the table for § 250.198(e), the entries for API RP 500 and API RP 505 are corrected to read as follows: § 250.198 Documents incorporated by reference.
