SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:52 May 17, 2010 Jkt 220001 Regulatory Information The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary final rule without prior notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section 4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those procedures are ‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) with respect to this rule because delaying this rule would be contrary to the public interest of ensuring the safety of vessels during the construction, and immediate action is necessary to prevent possible loss of life and property. The Coast Guard has not received any complaints or negative comments previously with regard to events of this type and duration. 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. Delaying this rule would be contrary to the public interest of ensuring the safety of vessels during the construction, and immediate action is necessary to prevent possible loss of life and property. Basis and Purpose This temporary safety zone is necessary to ensure the safety of vessels from hazards associated with construction projects. Based on accidents that have occurred in other Captain of the Port zones and the dangerous nature of large construction projects, the Captain of the Port Detroit has determined construction projects in close proximity to watercraft pose significant risk to public safety and property. The likely combination of large vessels, congested waterways, and movement of large pieces of equipment could easily result in serious injuries or fatalities. Establishing a safety zone to control vessel movement around the location of the construction project will help ensure the safety of persons and property at these events and help minimize the associated risks. Discussion of Rule A temporary safety zone is necessary to ensure the safety of mariners and construction personnel during the setup and offloading of equipment in conjunction with the Marathon Oil Refinery Construction project. The offloading of equipment will occur PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 27641 between 7 a.m. on May 1, 2010, and 7 p.m. on November 30, 2010. Specifically, offloading operations will occur between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. daily on multiple dates, to be determined, during the effective period of this regulation. The public will be notified of the specific enforcement dates as soon as practicable through the publication of a Notice of Enforcement and by Broadcast Notice to Mariners. The temporary safety zone will encompass all waters of the Rouge River, Detroit, MI, from the Dix Ave. bridge to the north end of Fordson Island, bound by a line starting from a point on land on the south shore of the Rouge River at position 42°17.8′ N; 083°9.1′ W, continuing southeast to a point on land at position 42°17.7′ N; 083°9.0′ W, across to the north side of the river to a point on land at position 42°17.8′ N; 083°8.9′ W, along the shore northwest to a point on land at position 42°17.8′ N; 083°9.0′ W, continuing back southwest to the point of origin. All geographic coordinates are North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83). All persons and vessels shall comply with the instructions of the Coast Guard Captain of the Port or the designated on scene patrol personnel. Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the safety zone is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Detroit or his designated on scene representative. The Captain of the Port or his designated on scene representative may be contacted via VHF Channel 16. 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. Although this regulation will restrict access to the area, the effect of the rule will not be significant because: The minimal time that vessels will be restricted from the zone and the zone is an area where the Coast Guard expects insignificant adverse impact to mariners from the zone’s activation. E:\FR\FM\18MYR1.SGM 18MYR1 27642 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 95 / Tuesday, May 18, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 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 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 will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This rule will affect the following entities, some of which may be small entities: The owners and operators of vessels intending to transit or anchor in a portion of the Rouge River near Detroit, MI between 7 a.m. on May 1, 2010 and 7 p.m. on November 30, 2010. This safety zone will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: This rule will only be enforced for 12 hours on each of the days during the effective dates of this temporary final rule. The Coast Guard will give notice to the public via a Broadcast Notice to Mariners that the regulation is in effect. hsrobinson on DSK69SOYB1PROD with RULES Assistance for Small Entities Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–121), we offer to assist small entities in understanding the rule so that they can better evaluate its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking process. Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and rates each agency’s responsiveness to small business. If you wish to comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1– 888–REG–FAIR (1–888–734–3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard. Federalism A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132, Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this rule under that Order and have determined that it does not have implications for federalism. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531–1538) requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may result in the expenditure by a State, local, or Tribal government, in the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for inflation) or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in such expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in this preamble. Taking of Private Property This rule will not cause a taking of private property or otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property Rights. Civil Justice Reform This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden. Protection of Children We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is not an economically significant rule and does not create an environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may disproportionately affect children. Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ‘‘significant energy action’’ under that order because it is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use of energy. The Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects under Executive Order 13211. Technical Standards The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress, through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why using these standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance, design, or operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related management systems practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies. This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards. Environment We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security Management Directive 023–01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and have concluded this action is one of a category of actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. This rule is categorically excluded, under figure 2–1, paragraph (34)(g) of the Instruction because it involves the establishment of a temporary safety zone to protect the public from construction operations. An environmental analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion determination are available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES. Collection of Information Indian Tribal Governments This rule does not have Tribal implications under Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments, because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian Tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and Indian Tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian Tribes. List of Subjects in 33 CFR Part 165 This rule calls for no new collection of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501– 3520). Energy Effects We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Harbors, Marine Safety, Navigation (water), Reporting and record keeping requirements, Security measures, Waterways.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background On January 15, 2009, the EPA (‘‘we’’) issued a final rule amending the PSD and nonattainment NSR regulations that implement the definition of ‘‘modification’’ in Clean Air Act section 111(a)(4). The amendments addressed when a source must combine (‘‘aggregate’’) nominally-separate physical changes and changes in the method of operation for the purpose of determining whether they are a single change under NSR and result in a significant emissions increase. The amendments retained the existing rule language for aggregation but interpreted that rule text to mean that sources and permitting authorities should combine emissions when activities are ‘‘substantially related.’’ It also adopted a rebuttable presumption that activities at a plant can be presumed not to be substantially related if they occur 3 or more years apart. Collectively, this rulemaking is known as the ‘‘NSR Aggregation Amendments.’’ For further information on the NSR Aggregation Amendments, see 74 FR 2376 (January 15, 2009). The NSR Aggregation Amendments have had their effectiveness delayed by two actions published in the Federal Register. See 74 FR 7284 (February 13, 2009) and 74 FR 22693 (May 14, 2009).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Regulatory Information

    The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary final rule without prior 
notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section 
4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This 
provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and 
opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those 
procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public 
interest.'' Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good 
cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 
with respect to this rule because delaying this rule would be contrary 
to the public interest of ensuring the safety of vessels during the 
construction, and immediate action is necessary to prevent possible 
loss of life and property. The Coast Guard has not received any 
complaints or negative comments previously with regard to events of 
this type and duration.
    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. Delaying this rule would be 
contrary to the public interest of ensuring the safety of vessels 
during the construction, and immediate action is necessary to prevent 
possible loss of life and property.

Basis and Purpose

    This temporary safety zone is necessary to ensure the safety of 
vessels from hazards associated with construction projects. Based on 
accidents that have occurred in other Captain of the Port zones and the 
dangerous nature of large construction projects, the Captain of the 
Port Detroit has determined construction projects in close proximity to 
watercraft pose significant risk to public safety and property. The 
likely combination of large vessels, congested waterways, and movement 
of large pieces of equipment could easily result in serious injuries or 
fatalities. Establishing a safety zone to control vessel movement 
around the location of the construction project will help ensure the 
safety of persons and property at these events and help minimize the 
associated risks.

Discussion of Rule

    A temporary safety zone is necessary to ensure the safety of 
mariners and construction personnel during the setup and offloading of 
equipment in conjunction with the Marathon Oil Refinery Construction 
project. The offloading of equipment will occur between 7 a.m. on May 
1, 2010, and 7 p.m. on November 30, 2010. Specifically, offloading 
operations will occur between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. daily on multiple 
dates, to be determined, during the effective period of this 
regulation. The public will be notified of the specific enforcement 
dates as soon as practicable through the publication of a Notice of 
Enforcement and by Broadcast Notice to Mariners.
    The temporary safety zone will encompass all waters of the Rouge 
River, Detroit, MI, from the Dix Ave. bridge to the north end of 
Fordson Island, bound by a line starting from a point on land on the 
south shore of the Rouge River at position 42[deg]17.8' N; 083[deg]9.1' 
W, continuing southeast to a point on land at position 42[deg]17.7' N; 
083[deg]9.0' W, across to the north side of the river to a point on 
land at position 42[deg]17.8' N; 083[deg]8.9' W, along the shore 
northwest to a point on land at position 42[deg]17.8' N; 083[deg]9.0' 
W, continuing back southwest to the point of origin. All geographic 
coordinates are North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83).
    All persons and vessels shall comply with the instructions of the 
Coast Guard Captain of the Port or the designated on scene patrol 
personnel. Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the safety zone 
is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Detroit or 
his designated on scene representative. The Captain of the Port or his 
designated on scene representative may be contacted via VHF Channel 16.

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.
    Although this regulation will restrict access to the area, the 
effect of the rule will not be significant because: The minimal time 
that vessels will be restricted from the zone and the zone is an area 
where the Coast Guard expects insignificant adverse impact to mariners 
from the zone's activation.

[[Page 27642]]

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 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 will 
not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small 
entities.
    This rule will affect the following entities, some of which may be 
small entities: The owners and operators of vessels intending to 
transit or anchor in a portion of the Rouge River near Detroit, MI 
between 7 a.m. on May 1, 2010 and 7 p.m. on November 30, 2010.
    This safety zone will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: This 
rule will only be enforced for 12 hours on each of the days during the 
effective dates of this temporary final rule. The Coast Guard will give 
notice to the public via a Broadcast Notice to Mariners that the 
regulation is in effect.

Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement 
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we offer to assist small 
entities in understanding the rule so that they can better evaluate its 
effects on them and participate in the rulemaking process.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal 
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal 
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory 
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory 
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and 
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to 
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR 
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small 
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or 
action of the Coast Guard.

Collection of Information

    This rule calls for no new collection of information under the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132, 
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local 
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial 
direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this rule under 
that Order and have determined that it does not have implications for 
federalism.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538) 
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary 
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may 
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or Tribal government, in 
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for 
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in 
such expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in 
this preamble.

Taking of Private Property

    This rule will not cause a taking of private property or otherwise 
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental 
Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property 
Rights.

Civil Justice Reform

    This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) 
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation, 
eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

Protection of Children

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection 
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule 
is not an economically significant rule and does not create an 
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may 
disproportionately affect children.

Indian Tribal Governments

    This rule does not have Tribal implications under Executive Order 
13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments, 
because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more 
Indian Tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and 
Indian Tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities 
between the Federal Government and Indian Tribes.

Energy Effects

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions 
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ``significant 
energy action'' under that order because it is not a ``significant 
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to 
have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use 
of energy. The Administrator of the Office of Information and 
Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy 
action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects 
under Executive Order 13211.

Technical Standards

    The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards 
in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress, 
through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why 
using these standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or 
otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical 
standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance, design, or 
operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related management 
systems practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus 
standards bodies.
    This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not 
consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security 
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which 
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental 
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have concluded 
this action is one of a category of actions that do not individually or 
cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. This 
rule is categorically excluded, under figure 2-1, paragraph (34)(g) of 
the Instruction because it involves the establishment of a temporary 
safety zone to protect the public from construction operations. An 
environmental analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion 
determination are available in the docket where indicated under 
ADDRESSES.
