Temporary interim rule with request for comments. AGENCY: srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with RULES ACTION: SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing 51 safety zones for marine events within the Captain of the Port Sector Northern New England area of responsibility for regattas, swim events, power boat races, row and paddle boat races, parades, and firework displays. This action is necessary to provide for the safety of life on navigable waters during the events.

If we determine that one would aid this rulemaking, we will hold one at a time and place announced by a later notice in the Federal Register. Regulatory Information The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary interim 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 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. It is impractical to issue a NPRM and take public comment before July 3rd, 2010 when the first marine event necessitating a safety zone is scheduled to occur. Further, it is contrary to public interest to delay the effective date of this rule or to delay or cancel the scheduled events. Delaying the effective date by first publishing a NPRM would be contrary to the rule’s objectives of ensuring safety of life on the navigable waters during these scheduled events as immediate action is needed to protect persons and vessels from the hazards associated with vessels participating in regattas, powerboat races, swim events and parades as well as the hazardous nature of fireworks including unexpected detonation and burning debris. We are requesting public comment on the safety zones, and if we receive public input that indicates a need to revise the safety zone regulations or the conditions they impose, or raises any other significant public concerns, we will address those concerns prior to issuing any final rule. Basis and Purpose Marine events are frequently held on the navigable waters within the area of responsibility for Captain of the Port Sector Northern New England. These events include sailing regattas, swim events, power boat races, row and paddle boat races, parades, and firework displays. Based on the nature of the events, large number of participants and spectators, and the event locations, the Coast Guard has determined that the events listed in this rule could pose a risk to participants or waterway users if normal vessel traffic were to interfere with the event. Possible hazards include risks of participant injury or death resulting from near or actual contact with non-participant vessels traversing through the safety zones. In order to protect the safety of all waterway users including event participants and spectators, this temporary rule establishes safety zones for the time and location of each event. This rule prevents vessels from entering, transiting, mooring or anchoring within areas specifically designated as safety zones during the periods of enforcement unless authorized by the Captain of the Port, or designated on-scene patrol personnel. ‘‘Designated on-scene patrol personnel’’ are any Coast Guard commissioned, warrant, or petty officer who has been designated by the Captain of the Port to act on his behalf. On-scene patrol personnel may be comprised of local, state or federal officials authorized to act in support of the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard has ordered safety zones or special local regulations for all of these 51 areas for past events and has not received public comments or concerns regarding the impact to waterway traffic from these annual events. Discussion of Rule This temporary rule creates safety zones for all navigable waters within the described area of each event as follows: a 350 yard safety zone around all firework displays, a 200 foot safety zone around all swim event routes, and a 50 yard safety zone around all power boat races, row and paddle boat races, and regattas.

As large numbers of spectator vessels are expected to congregate around the location of these events, the safety zones are needed to protect both spectators and participants from the safety hazards created by the event. During the enforcement period of the safety zones, persons and vessels are prohibited from entering, transiting through, remaining, anchoring or mooring within the zone unless specifically authorized by the Captain of the Port or his designated representatives. The Coast Guard may be assisted by other federal, state and local agencies in the enforcement of these safety zones. The Coast Guard determined that these safety zones will not have a significant impact on vessel traffic due to their temporary nature and limited size and the fact that vessels are allowed to transit the navigable waters outside of the safety zones. Advanced public notifications will also be made to the local maritime community by the Local Notice to Mariners as well as Broadcast Notice to Mariners. Regulatory Analyses We developed this interim 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. srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with RULES 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:47 Jun 07, 2010 Jkt 220001 • Date: August 21, 2010. • Time: 9:30 am to 4 pm. • Location: The regulated area includes all waters of Belfast Bay, in the vicinity of Belfast, Maine. • Date: August 21, 2010. • Time: 12 pm to 6 pm. • Location: The regulated area for the start of the race includes all waters of Castine Harbor, Maine in the vicinity of Dice Head. • Date: August 21, 2010. • Time: 12 pm to 3 pm. • Location: The regulated area includes all waters of the Penobscot River, on the shore side of Verona Island, Maine. • Date: August 22, 2010. • Time: 10 am to 3 pm. • Location: The regulated area includes all waters of Portland Harbor, Maine. • Date: September 3, 2010. • Time: 8 pm to 10:30 pm. • Location: From a barge in the vicinity of Northeast Point, Camden Harbor, Maine. • Date: September 4, 2010 through September 6, 2010. • Time: 9 am to 9 pm. • Location: The regulated area includes all waters in Camden Harbor, Camden, Maine. Budget has not reviewed it under that Order. The Coast Guard determined that this rule is not a significant regulatory action for the following reasons: The safety zones will be of limited duration, they cover only a small portion of the navigable waterways, and the events are designed to avoid, to the extent possible, deep draft, fishing, and recreational boating traffic routes. In addition, vessels requiring entry into the area of the safety zones may be authorized to do so by the Captain of the Port. 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 or operators of vessels intending to transit or anchor in the designated safety zones during the enforcement periods stated for each event in the List of Subjects. The safety zones will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: The safety zones will be of limited size and of short duration, and vessels that can safely do PO 00000 Frm 00034 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 so may navigate in all other portions of the waterways except for the areas designated as safety zones. Additionally, before the effective period, the Coast Guard will issue notice of the time and location of each safety zone through a Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to Mariners. 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, E:\FR\FM\08JNR1.SGM 08JNR1 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 109 / Tuesday, June 8, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 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 an 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 temporary 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 as this rule involves establishing safety zones. An environmental analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion determination are available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES. Any comments received concerning environmental impacts will be considered and changes made to the environmental analysis checklist, categorical exclusion determination, and this rulemaking as appropriate.

Regulatory Information



    The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary interim 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 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. It is impractical to issue a NPRM and take public comment 

before July 3rd, 2010 when the first marine event necessitating a 

safety zone is scheduled to occur. Further, it is contrary to public 

interest to delay the effective date of this rule or to delay or cancel 

the scheduled events. Delaying the effective date by first publishing a 

NPRM would be contrary to the rule's objectives of ensuring safety of 

life on the navigable waters during these scheduled events as immediate 

action is needed to protect persons and vessels from the hazards 

associated with vessels participating in regattas, powerboat races, 

swim events and parades as well as the hazardous nature of fireworks 

including unexpected detonation and burning debris. We are requesting 

public comment on the safety zones, and if we receive public input that 

indicates a need to revise the safety zone regulations or the 

conditions they impose, or raises any other significant public 

concerns, we will address those concerns prior to issuing any final 

rule.



Basis and Purpose



    Marine events are frequently held on the navigable waters within 

the area of responsibility for Captain of the Port Sector Northern New 

England. These events include sailing regattas, swim events, power boat 

races, row and paddle boat races, parades, and firework displays. Based 

on the nature of the events, large number of participants and 

spectators, and the event locations, the Coast Guard has determined 

that the events listed in this rule could pose a risk to participants 

or waterway users if normal vessel traffic were to interfere with the 

event. Possible hazards include risks of participant injury or death 

resulting from near or actual contact with non-participant vessels 

traversing through the safety zones. In order to protect the safety of 

all waterway users including event participants and spectators, this 

temporary rule establishes safety zones for the time and location of 

each event.

    This rule prevents vessels from entering, transiting, mooring or 

anchoring within areas specifically designated as safety zones during 

the periods of enforcement unless authorized by the Captain of the 

Port, or designated on-scene patrol personnel. ``Designated on-scene 

patrol personnel'' are any Coast Guard commissioned, warrant, or petty 

officer who has been designated by the Captain of the Port to act on 

his behalf. On-scene patrol personnel may be comprised of local, state 

or federal officials authorized to act in support of the Coast Guard.

    The Coast Guard has ordered safety zones or special local 

regulations for all of these 51 areas for past events and has not 

received public comments or concerns regarding the impact to waterway 

traffic from these annual events.



Discussion of Rule



    This temporary rule creates safety zones for all navigable waters 

within the described area of each event as follows: a 350 yard safety 

zone around all firework displays, a 200 foot safety zone around all 

swim event routes, and a 50 yard safety zone around all power boat 

races, row and paddle boat races, and regattas.

    The tables below summarize the safety zone size that applies to 

each event along with the event name, date, time, and location:

------------------------------------------------------------------------



    As large numbers of spectator vessels are expected to congregate 

around the location of these events, the safety zones are needed to 

protect both spectators and participants from the safety hazards 

created by the event. During the enforcement period of the safety 

zones, persons and vessels are prohibited from entering, transiting 

through, remaining, anchoring or mooring within the zone unless 

specifically authorized by the Captain of the Port or his designated 

representatives. The Coast Guard may be assisted by other federal, 

state and local agencies in the enforcement of these safety zones.

    The Coast Guard determined that these safety zones will not have a 

significant impact on vessel traffic due to their temporary nature and 

limited size and the fact that vessels are allowed to transit the 

navigable waters outside of the safety zones.

    Advanced public notifications will also be made to the local 

maritime community by the Local Notice to Mariners as well as Broadcast 

Notice to Mariners.



Regulatory Analyses



    We developed this interim 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.

    The Coast Guard determined that this rule is not a significant 

regulatory action for the following reasons: The safety zones will be 

of limited duration, they cover only a small portion of the navigable 

waterways, and the events are designed to avoid, to the extent 

possible, deep draft, fishing, and recreational boating traffic routes. 

In addition, vessels requiring entry into the area of the safety zones 

may be authorized to do so by the Captain of the Port.



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 or operators of vessels intending to 

transit or anchor in the designated safety zones during the enforcement 

periods stated for each event in the List of Subjects.

    The safety zones will not have a significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: The 

safety zones will be of limited size and of short duration, and vessels 

that can safely do so may navigate in all other portions of the 

waterways except for the areas designated as safety zones. 

Additionally, before the effective period, the Coast Guard will issue 

notice of the time and location of each safety zone through a Local 

Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to Mariners.



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,



[[Page 32285]]



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 an 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 temporary 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 as this rule involves 

establishing safety zones. An environmental analysis checklist and a 

categorical exclusion determination are available in the docket where 

indicated under ADDRESSES. Any comments received concerning 

environmental impacts will be considered and changes made to the 

environmental analysis checklist, categorical exclusion determination, 

and this rulemaking as appropriate.
