11. 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.
12. Energy Effects
This action is not a ‘‘significant
energy action’’ under Executive Order
13211, Actions Concerning Regulations
That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use.
13. Technical Standards
This rule does not use technical
standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus
standards.
14. 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 determined that 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 involves a safety
zone that will be enforced for a
maximum of three and a half hours.
This rule is categorically excluded,
under, paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2–1 of
the Commandant Instruction. An
environmental analysis checklist
supporting this determination and a
Categorical Exclusion Determination are
available in the docket where indicated
under ADDRESSES. We seek any
comments or information that may lead
to the discovery of a significant
environmental impact from this rule.

Tariff of Tolls
Saint Lawrence Seaway

ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Saint Lawrence Seaway
Development Corporation (SLSDC) and
the St. Lawrence Seaway Management
Corporation (SLSMC) of Canada under
international agreement, jointly publish
and presently administer the St.
Lawrence Seaway Tariff of Tolls in their
respective jurisdictions. The Tariff sets
forth the level of tolls assessed on all
commodities and vessels transiting the
facilities operated by the SLSDC and the
SLSMC. The SLSDC is revising its
regulations to reflect the fees and
charges currently being levied by the
SLSMC in Canada. The changes affect
the tolls for commercial vessels and are
applicable only in Canada. For
consistency, because these are under
international agreement joint
regulations, and to avoid confusion
among users of the Seaway, the SLSDC
finds that there is good cause to make
the U.S. version of the amendments
effective upon publication. (See
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION.)
DATES: This rule is effective on March
29, 2013.

vessels and are applicable only in
Canada. The collection of tolls by the
SLSDC on commercial vessels transiting
the U.S. locks is waived by law (33

amendments.

This regulation involves a foreign
affairs function of the United States and
therefore Executive Order 12866 does
not apply and evaluation under the
Department of Transportation’s
Regulatory Policies and Procedures is
not required.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
Determination
I certify this regulation will not have
a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
The St. Lawrence Seaway Tariff of Tolls
primarily relate to commercial users of
the Seaway, the vast majority of whom
are foreign vessel operators. Therefore,
any resulting costs will be borne mostly
by foreign vessels.

Tolls, as follows:
Environmental Impact
PART 402—TARIFF OF TOLLS
This regulation does not require an
environmental impact statement under
the National Environmental Policy Act

a major federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human
environment.
Federalism
The Corporation has analyzed this

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Under Title VIII of the Alaska
National Interest Lands Conservation
Act (ANILCA) (16 U.S.C. 3111–3126),
the Secretary of the Interior and the
Secretary of Agriculture (Secretaries)
jointly implement the Federal
Subsistence Management Program. This
program provides a preference for take
of fish and wildlife resources for
subsistence uses on Federal public
lands and waters in Alaska. The
Secretaries published temporary
regulations to carry out this program in
the Federal Register on June 29, 1990
(55 FR 27114), and published final
regulations in the Federal Register on
May 29, 1992 (57 FR 22940). The
Program has subsequently amended
these regulations a number of times.
Because this program is a joint effort
between Interior and Agriculture, these
regulations are located in two titles of
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR):
Title 36, ‘‘Parks, Forests, and Public
Property,’’ and Title 50, ‘‘Wildlife and
Fisheries,’’ at 36 CFR 242.1–242.28 and
50 CFR 100.1–100.28, respectively. The
regulations contain subparts as follows:
Subpart A, General Provisions; Subpart
B, Program Structure; Subpart C, Board
Determinations; and Subpart D,
Subsistence Taking of Fish and Wildlife.
Consistent with subpart B of these
regulations, the Secretaries established a
Federal Subsistence Board to administer
the Federal Subsistence Management
