SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Trimet of
Portland and the Oregon Department of
Transportation have requested that the
upper deck of the Steel Bridge remain
closed to vessel traffic to facilitate safe
efficient movement of light rail and
roadway traffic associated with the
Starlight Parade. The Steel Bridge
crosses the Willamette River at mile
12.1 and is a double-deck lift bridge
with a lower lift deck and an upper lift
deck which operate independent of each
other. When both decks are in the down
position the bridge provides 26 feet of
vertical clearance above Columbia River
Datum 0.0. When the lower deck is in
the up position the bridge provides 71
feet of vertical clearance above
Columbia River Datum 0.0. This
deviation does not affect the operating
schedule of the lower deck which opens
on signal. Vessels which do not require
an opening of the upper deck of the
bridge may continue to transit beneath
the bridge and, if needed, may obtain an
opening of the lower deck of the bridge
for passage during this closure period of
the upper deck. Under normal
conditions the upper deck of the Steel
Bridge operates in accordance with 33
CFR 117.897(c)(3)(ii) which states that
from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through
Friday one hour advance notice shall be
given for draw openings and at all other
times two hours advance notice shall be
given to obtain an opening. This
deviation period is from 7 p.m. on June
2, 2012 through 11:30 p.m. June 2, 2012.
The deviation allows the upper deck of
the Steel Bridge across the Willamette
River, mile 12.1, to remain in the closed
position and need not open for maritime
traffic from 7 p.m. through 11:30 p.m.
on June 2, 2012. The bridge shall
operate in accordance with 33 CFR
117.897 at all other times. Waterway
usage on this stretch of the Willamette
River includes vessels ranging from
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:13 May 18, 2012
Jkt 226001
commercial tug and barge to small
pleasure craft. Mariners will be notified
and kept informed of the bridge’s
operational status via the Coast Guard
Notice to Mariners publication and
Broadcast Notice to Mariners as
appropriate. The lift span will be
required to open, if needed, for public
vessels of the United States and Canada
and for vessels engaged in emergency
response operations during this closure
period.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the drawbridge must return to its regular
operating schedule immediately at the
end of the designated time period. This
deviation from the operating regulations
is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

is scheduled to take place on Tuesday,

protect the public from the hazards
associated with airborne and waterborne

unless authorized by the Captain of the
Port St. Petersburg or a designated
representative.

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 the
Coast Guard did not receive information
regarding the exercise until April 11,
2012. As a result, the Coast Guard did
not have sufficient time to publish an
NPRM and to receive public comments
prior to the exercise. Any delay in the
effective date of this rule would be
PO 00000
Frm 00047
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
29899
contrary to the public interest because
immediate action is needed to minimize
potential danger to the public during the
exercise.
For the same reason discussed above,
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.
Basis and Purpose
The legal basis for the rule is the
Coast Guard’s authority to establish
regulated navigation areas and other
limited access areas: 33 U.S.C. 1231; 46
U.S.C. Chapter 701, 3306, 3703; 50
U.S.C. 191, 195; 33 CFR 1.05–1, 6.04–1,
6.04–6, 160.5; Pub. L. 107–295, 116 Stat.
2064; Department of Homeland Security
Delegation No. 0170.1.
The purpose of the rule is to protect
the public from the hazards associated
with the airborne and waterborne
activities during the exercise.
Discussion of Rule
On Tuesday, May 22, 2012 and
Wednesday, May 23, 2012, the
International Special Operations Forces
Week Capability Exercise is scheduled
to take place on the waters of Seddon

the safety zone will begin 30 minutes

minutes after the scheduled completion
of the exercise at approximately 3:30
p.m. on May 22, 2012 and 2:30 p.m. on
May 23, 2012 to ensure the safety zone
