Final rule.

This final rule amends MARAD's regulations governing Seamen's Service Awards. The amendment changes the name "Gulf of Mexico" to "Gulf of America" consistent with Executive Order (E.O.) 14172, Restoring Names that Honor American Greatness. The amendment also provides factual clerical changes, such as updating citations to authority and physical office names and addresses.
