Regulatory History and Information The Coast Guard has previously established a permanent safety zone in the table to 33 CFR 165.1123 for this annual event. This proposal is to notify the public that the regulated area has been moved 100 yards northwest from the location noted in 33 CFR 165.1123. This change was made to help mitigate environmental concerns. Therefore, a temporary final rule will be published after the comment period of this NPRM. A permanent final rule and update to the 33 CFR 165.1123 table for this annual event is under review for proposed rulemaking. wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS C. Basis and Purpose The Ports and Waterways Safety Act gives the Coast Guard authority to create and enforce safety zones. The Coast Guard proposes establishing a temporary safety zone on the navigable waters of Glorietta Bay in support of a fireworks show sponsored by the city of Coronado. The safety zone will include all navigable waters within 800 feet of the fireworks barge located in approximate position: 32°40′43.0″ N, 117°10′14.3″ W The temporary safety zone is necessary to provide for the safety of the show’s crew, spectators, and participants of the event, participating vessels, and other vessels and users of the waterway. This safety zone is necessary to provide for the safety of the fireworks barge crew and participating safety vessels, recreational boating spectators, and other users of the waterway from hazards associated with fireworks. Fireworks launched in close proximity to watercraft pose a significant risk to public safety and property. Such displays draw large numbers of spectators on vessels. The combination of a large number of spectators, congested waterways, darkness punctuated by bright flashes of light and burning debris has the potential to result in serious injuries or fatalities. The proposed safety zone will restrict vessels from operating within a portion of the navigable waters around the fireworks launch platforms during the VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:26 May 16, 2013 Jkt 229001 enforcement period which will be immediately before, during, and immediately after the fireworks displays. D. Discussion of Proposed Rule The Coast Guard is proposing the establishment of a temporary safety zone for the Coronado Fourth of July Fireworks from 8:45 p.m. to 10 p.m. on July 4, 2013. This regulated area encompasses the navigable waters of Glorietta Bay in Coronado, CA in support of Coronado Fourth of July Fireworks display. This action is necessary to provide for the safety of the participants, crew, spectators, participating vessels, and other vessels and users of the waterway. Persons and vessels will be prohibited from entering into, transiting through, or anchoring within this safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of the Port, or his designated representative. The safety zone will include all navigable waters within 800 feet of the fireworks barge located in approximate position: 32°40′43.0″ N, 117°10′14.3″ W. Vessels will be able to transit the surrounding area and may be authorized to transit through the proposed safety zone with the permission of the Captain of the Port or the designated representative. Before activating the zones, the Coast Guard will notify mariners by appropriate means including but not limited to Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to Mariners. E. Regulatory Analyses We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes and executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses based on a number of these statutes or executive orders. 1. Regulatory Planning and Review This proposed rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, as supplemented by Executive Order 13563, Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of Executive Order 12866 or under section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management and Budget has not reviewed it under those Orders. This determination is based on the small size, and limited duration of the safety zone. 2. Impact on Small Entities The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601–612, as amended, requires federal agencies to consider the PO 00000 Frm 00010 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 29095 potential impact of regulations on small entities during rulemaking. 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 proposed rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. (1) This proposed 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 specified portions of Glorietta Bay from 8:45 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on July 4, 2013. (2) This safety zone will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: The safety zone will only be in effect for one hour, late in the evening when vessel traffic is low. If you think that your business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this rule would have a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment (see ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to what degree this rule would economically affect it. 3. Assistance for Small Entities Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–121), we want to assist small entities in understanding this proposed rule. If the rule would affect your small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you have questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, above. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard. 4. Collection of Information This proposed rule will not call for a new collection of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520.). 5. Federalism A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132, Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. We have E:\FR\FM\17MYP1.SGM 17MYP1 29096 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 96 / Friday, May 17, 2013 / Proposed Rules analyzed this proposed rule under that Order and determined that this rule does not have implications for federalism. between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes. 6. Protest Activities 12. Energy Effects The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters. Protesters are asked to contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so that your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or security of people, places or vessels. This proposed rule is not a ‘‘significant energy action’’ under Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use. 7. 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 proposed rule would not result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in this preamble. 8. Taking of Private Property This proposed rule would 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. 9. Civil Justice Reform This proposed 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. wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS 10. Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks We have analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is not an economically significant rule and would not create an environmental risk to health or risk to safety that might disproportionately affect children. This proposed rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments, because it would not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship 15:26 May 16, 2013 Jkt 229001 This proposed rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards. 14. Environment We have analyzed this proposed 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 made a preliminary determination 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 proposed rule involves establishment of a temporary safety zone. This rule is categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2–1 of the Commandant Instruction. A preliminary 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 proposed rule.

B. Regulatory History and Information

    The Coast Guard has previously established a permanent safety zone 
in the table to 33 CFR 165.1123 for this annual event. This proposal is 
to notify the public that the regulated area has been moved 100 yards 
northwest from the location noted in 33 CFR 165.1123. This change was 
made to help mitigate environmental concerns. Therefore, a temporary 
final rule will be published after the comment period of this NPRM. A 
permanent final rule and update to the 33 CFR 165.1123 table for this 
annual event is under review for proposed rulemaking.

C. Basis and Purpose

    The Ports and Waterways Safety Act gives the Coast Guard authority 
to create and enforce safety zones. The Coast Guard proposes 
establishing a temporary safety zone on the navigable waters of 
Glorietta Bay in support of a fireworks show sponsored by the city of 
Coronado. The safety zone will include all navigable waters within 800 
feet of the fireworks barge located in approximate position: 
32[deg]40'43.0'' N, 117[deg]10'14.3'' W
    The temporary safety zone is necessary to provide for the safety of 
the show's crew, spectators, and participants of the event, 
participating vessels, and other vessels and users of the waterway.
    This safety zone is necessary to provide for the safety of the 
fireworks barge crew and participating safety vessels, recreational 
boating spectators, and other users of the waterway from hazards 
associated with fireworks. Fireworks launched in close proximity to 
watercraft pose a significant risk to public safety and property. Such 
displays draw large numbers of spectators on vessels. The combination 
of a large number of spectators, congested waterways, darkness 
punctuated by bright flashes of light and burning debris has the 
potential to result in serious injuries or fatalities.
    The proposed safety zone will restrict vessels from operating 
within a portion of the navigable waters around the fireworks launch 
platforms during the enforcement period which will be immediately 
before, during, and immediately after the fireworks displays.

D. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The Coast Guard is proposing the establishment of a temporary 
safety zone for the Coronado Fourth of July Fireworks from 8:45 p.m. to 
10 p.m. on July 4, 2013. This regulated area encompasses the navigable 
waters of Glorietta Bay in Coronado, CA in support of Coronado Fourth 
of July Fireworks display. This action is necessary to provide for the 
safety of the participants, crew, spectators, participating vessels, 
and other vessels and users of the waterway. Persons and vessels will 
be prohibited from entering into, transiting through, or anchoring 
within this safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of the Port, 
or his designated representative.
    The safety zone will include all navigable waters within 800 feet 
of the fireworks barge located in approximate position: 
32[deg]40'43.0'' N, 117[deg]10'14.3'' W.
    Vessels will be able to transit the surrounding area and may be 
authorized to transit through the proposed safety zone with the 
permission of the Captain of the Port or the designated representative. 
Before activating the zones, the Coast Guard will notify mariners by 
appropriate means including but not limited to Local Notice to Mariners 
and Broadcast Notice to Mariners.

E. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes 
and executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our 
analyses based on a number of these statutes or executive orders.

1. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This proposed rule is not a significant regulatory action under 
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, 
as supplemented by Executive Order 13563, Improving Regulation and 
Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential 
costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of Executive Order 12866 or 
under section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management and 
Budget has not reviewed it under those Orders. This determination is 
based on the small size, and limited duration of the safety zone.

2. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601-612, as 
amended, requires federal agencies to consider the potential impact of 
regulations on small entities during rulemaking. 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 
proposed rule will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities.
    (1) This proposed 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 specified portions of Glorietta Bay 
from 8:45 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on July 4, 2013.
    (2) This safety zone will not have a significant economic impact on 
a substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: The 
safety zone will only be in effect for one hour, late in the evening 
when vessel traffic is low.
    If you think that your business, organization, or governmental 
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this rule would have 
a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment (see 
ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to what 
degree this rule would economically affect it.

3. Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement 
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we want to assist small 
entities in understanding this proposed rule. If the rule would affect 
your small business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction and you 
have questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance, 
please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION 
CONTACT, above. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small 
entities that question or complain about this proposed rule or any 
policy or action of the Coast Guard.

4. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule will not call for a new collection of 
information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-
3520.).

5. Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132, 
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on the States, on the 
relationship between the national government and the States, or on the 
distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of 
government. We have

[[Page 29096]]

analyzed this proposed rule under that Order and determined that this 
rule does not have implications for federalism.

6. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters. 
Protesters are asked to contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER 
INFORMATION CONTACT section to coordinate protest activities so that 
your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or 
security of people, places or vessels.

7. 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 proposed rule would not 
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule 
elsewhere in this preamble.

8. Taking of Private Property

    This proposed rule would 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.

9. Civil Justice Reform

    This proposed 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.

10. Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks

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

11. Indian Tribal Governments

    This proposed rule does not have tribal implications under 
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal 
Governments, because it would 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 proposed rule 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 proposed rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we 
did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

14. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed 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 made a preliminary determination 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 proposed rule 
involves establishment of a temporary safety zone. This rule is 
categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 34(g) of 
Figure 2-1 of the Commandant Instruction. A preliminary 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 proposed 
rule.
