ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is removing
the established safety zone around the
wreck of the M/V ROY A. JODREY, St.
Lawrence River, Wellesley Island, NY.
The safety zone was necessary for
restricting recreational diving while
conducting oil removal operations
aboard the sunken vessel. The safety
zone is no longer needed and the Coast
Guard is removing the regulation.

on February 23, 2007.

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 publishing an
PO 00000
Frm 00036
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
NPRM is unnecessary because this rule
removes a safety zone that is no longer
needed.
Background and Purpose
The rule established a safety zone
around the sunken M/V ROY A.
JODREY, St. Lawrence River, Wellesley
Island, NY (67 FR 65042 (October 23,
2002).). The safety zone was necessary
for restricting recreational diving while
conducting oil removal operations
aboard the sunken vessel. The zone
covered all waters and adjacent
shoreline encompassed by the arc of a
circle with a 150-yard radius of the
wreck M/V ROY A JODREY, with its
center in 44°19.55 N, 075°56.00 W
(NAD83). The safety zone is no longer
needed and the Coast Guard is removing
the regulation.
Regulatory Evaluation
This rule is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under section 3(f) of
Executive Order 12866 and does not
require an assessment of potential costs
and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that
order. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed this rule under
that order. It is not significant under the
regulatory policies and procedures of
the Department of Homeland Security
(DHS), because we are disestablishing
the safety zone around wreck M/V ROY
A JODREY.
Small Entities
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(5 U.S.C. 601–612), we have considered
whether this rule would have a
significant impact on a substantial
number of small entities. The term
‘‘small entities’’ comprises small
businesses, not-for-profit organizations
that are independently owned and
operated and are not dominant in their
fields, and governmental jurisdictions
with populations of less than 50,000.
The Coast Guard certifies under 5
U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule would not
have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities
because this rule removes an obsolete
safety zone.
Assistance for Small Entities
Under section 213(a) of the Small
Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–121),
we want to assist small entities in
understanding this rule so that they can
better evaluate its effects and participate
in the rulemaking process. If the rule
would affect your small business,
organization, or governmental
jurisdiction and you have questions
concerning its provisions or options for
