ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is changing
the drawbridge operation regulation for
the Washington State drawbridges
across the Chehalis, Hoquiam, and
Wishkah Rivers at Grays Harbor,
Washington. The change reduces
staffing requirements during the night
when openings are infrequent. The rule
does this by modifying the number of
hours of advance notice required for
draw openings and establishing the

telephone as the only means of initial
contact for openings at night.
DATES: This rule is effective April 24,
2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background and Purpose
This rule enables the Washington
State Department of Transportation, the
owner of the drawbridges across the
Chehalis, Hoquiam, and Wishkah Rivers
at Grays Harbor, Washington, to reduce
the staffing of the Chehalis Bridge,
which currently maintains a radio
watch during the night hours when
advance notice is required for openings
of the draws of all of those bridges.
One-hour notice is currently required
for openings of the Chehalis River
Bridge from one hour after sunset to one
hour before sunrise and for all openings
of the Simpson Avenue Bridge,
Hoquiam River mile 0.5, the Riverside
Avenue Bridge, Hoquiam River mile 0.9,
the Heron Street Bridge, Wishkah River
PO 00000
Frm 00017
Fmt 4700

mile 0.2, and the Wishkah Street Bridge,
Wishkah River, mile 0.4.
The reduction in staffing is
appropriate because the draws of those
bridges rarely have to been opened
during the period affected. In fact,
during the entire year of 2007 only 50
openings were requested for the bridges
between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m., which
equates to an average of less than one
opening per week during those hours.
Furthermore, most of the requests were
made by telephone. Whenever operators
are at the Chehalis River Bridge a
normal radio watch will be maintained.
Discussion of Comments and Changes
Two comments were received from
parties affected by this rule. Both
comments appeared to misunderstand
some of the provisions of the rule.
Specifically, the rule requires notice of
one hour rather than four hours as one
commenter believed. Another
commenter appeared to believe that a
radio watch would never be maintained
under the rule, but the rule provides for
a normal radio watch to be maintained
whenever operators are present. The
commenters’ objections were resolved
as noted and no changes were made to
the rule based on the comments
received.
Regulatory Analyses
We developed this rule after
considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking.
Below we summarize our analyses
based on 13 of these statutes or
executive orders.
Regulatory Planning and Review
This rule is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under section 3(f) of
Executive Order 12866, Regulatory
Planning and Review, 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 it under that
Order.
We expect the economic impact of
this rule to be so minimal that a full
Regulatory Evaluation is unnecessary.
We reached this conclusion because the
draws of the bridges rarely have to been
opened during the period affected, the
draws will still be opened in a
reasonable amount of time, and most
vessel operators already use the
telephone to request openings of the
draws.
Small Entities
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(5 U.S.C. 601–612), we have considered
whether this rule would have a
significant economic impact on a
