Final rule.

ACTION:
The Coast Guard is
establishing a moving safety zone
around large cruise ships as they transit
the Lower Mississippi River between
the Port of New Orleans Cruise Ship
Terminal, mile marker 96.0, and the
Southwest Pass Sea Buoy. The moving
safety zone extends from bank to bank
encompassing one-mile ahead and onemile astern of each cruise ship. This
safety measure is necessary to protect
persons and vessels from the potential
safety hazards associated with
congested maritime traffic on the Lower
Mississippi River.
DATES: This rule is effective December 5,
2012.

NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
A. Regulatory History and Information
The Coast Guard published a Notice
of Proposed Rulemaking on May 17,
2012, in the Federal Register, 77 FR
29254. The Coast Guard received one
comment. There were no requests for a
Public Meeting.
B. Basis and Purpose
The legal basis and authorities for this
rule are found in 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, and 160.5; Pub. L. 107–295, 116
Stat. 2064; and Department of
Homeland Security Delegation No.
0170.1, which collectively authorize the
Coast Guard to establish and define
regulatory safety zones.
The Coast Guard is establishing a
moving safety zone around each large
cruise ship as it transits the Lower
Mississippi River between the Port of
New Orleans Cruise Ship Terminal,
mile marker 96.0, and the Southwest
Pass Sea Buoy to address the increasing
risk to safe navigation. For the purpose
of this rule, the term ‘‘large cruise ship’’
is defined as a vessel over 100 feet in
length, carrying more than 500
passengers for hire, making a voyage
lasting more than 24 hours, any part of
which is on the high seas, and for which
passengers are embarked or
disembarked in the United States or its
territories. The marine transportation
system on the lower Mississippi river
has seen a sustained growth over the
years and there are more vessels on the
river than ever before. If a marine
accident occurs involving a large cruise
ship there is a significantly higher
potential for loss of life than with any
other type of commercial vessel.
Therefore to mitigate the risks and
consequences associated with higher
traffic, the reduction of navigable space,
and to protect lives, the Coast Guard is
establishing a moving safety zone
around each large cruise ship. This rule
is intended to establish early passing or
overtaking arrangements thus increasing
the time available for safe maneuvering.
