SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Public Participation and Comments

    We view public participation as essential to effective rulemaking, 
and will consider all comments and material received during the comment 
period. Your comment can help shape the outcome of this rulemaking. If

B. Regulatory History and Information

    We published the NPRM for this rulemaking on September 10, 2015 (80 
FR 54484). It proposed changes to the methodology by which the Coast 
Guard reviews and adjusts rates for Great Lakes pilotage, and also 
proposed rates for the 2016 shipping season. The NPRM announced a 60 
day public comment period ending November 9, 2015. We have received a 
request from several members of the public for an extension of the 
comment period, which we have decided to grant in light of the 
importance of our proposed changes to the ratemaking methodology. With 
this extension, the total length of the public comment period will now 
be 90 days.
    This notice is issued under authority of 5 U.S.C. 552(a).
