   specified for all of the days of each month, based upon the actual times of
   sunrise  and sunset for the fifteenth day of the month adjusted to the
   nearest quarter hour. Sunrise and sunset times are derived by using the
   standardized procedure and the tables in the 1946 American Nautical Almanac
   issued by the United States Naval Observatory.
