SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Regulatory Information
We did not publish a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this
regulation. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the
Coast Guard finds that good cause exists
for not publishing an NPRM. Publishing
an NPRM and delaying its effective date
would be contrary to the public interest,
since there is not sufficient time to
publish a proposed rule in advance of
the event and immediate action is
needed to protect persons and vessels
against the hazards associated with a
fireworks display from a barge, such as
premature detonation or falling burning
debris.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal
Register. This safety zone of short
duration is needed to provide for the
safety of persons and vessels on the
Potomac River and the public at large.
Advance notification of the security
zone and the fireworks display will be
provided to the public via marine
information broadcasts and by local
media.
Background and Purpose
On April 2, 2005, the National Cherry
Blossom Festival will sponsor a
fireworks display from a barge on the
Washington Channel, in Washington,
DC, in approximate position latitude
38°52′08.5″ N, longitude 077°01′13.0″
W. The event will consist of an aerial
fireworks display of short duration. A
fleet of spectator vessels is anticipated.
