Special Local Regulations and Safety Zones; Marine Events in 
Captain of the Port Long Island Sound Zone

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing one special local regulation 
for a regatta and four safety zones for two fireworks displays and two 
swim events within the Captain of the Port (COTP) Long Island Sound 
(LIS) Zone. This action is necessary to provide for the safety of life 
on navigable waters during these events. The special local regulation 
and safety zones will facilitate public notification of the event and 
provide protective measures for the maritime public and event 
participants from the hazards associated with these events. Entry into, 
transit through, mooring or anchoring within these zones is prohibited 
unless authorized by COTP Sector Long Island Sound.

DATES: This rule is effective from July 10, 2013 to September 1, 2013. 
Certain provisions of this rule address events and dates which have 
already passed. Those regulations were enforced with actual notice on 
the event dates. Other provisions of this rule will be enforced during 
the specific dates and times listed in Sec.  100.35T01-0447 and Tables 
1 and 2 of Sec.  165.T01-0447.

NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

A. Regulatory History and Information

    The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary 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 Coast Guard was not provided enough 
notice by the sponsoring organizations and these temporary regulations 
will help promote the safety of event participants and the maritime 
public. More specific details for each event are listed below.
    The Connecticut River Raft Race is a recurring marine event that 
has previously gone through the public comment process and is currently 
listed as a permanent marine event in the Code of Federal Regulations. 
For this year's event, the start and finish points of the race have 
been relocated to spots within the same general vicinity of Middletown, 
CT, but with improved access to the Connecticut River creating safer 
entry and exit conditions for event participants and support personnel. 
Recently, the Coast Guard received information on the new positions in 
the marine event application submitted on April 4, 2013, and learned 
from event Race Committee President, Dan Pritchard, that the race has 
previously utilized these newly requested access points for the past 
four years. The application of April 4, 2013 was not received 135 days 
in advance of the event and therefore has resulted in late notice to 
the Coast Guard. However, requiring a move to the original positions 
does not promote the safety of the event participants and crews. 
Further, no comments have been received by U.S. Coast Guard Sector Long 
Island Sound regarding the change of the events start and finish 
points.
    The Coast Guard received information about the Riverhead Rocks 
Triathlon from the event sponsor, Event Power, on May 2, 2013. Event 
Power held the Riverhead Rocks Triathlon during the previous year but 
did not submit a marine event application for the event and was not 
aware of the requirement for submitting a request for a new event 135 
days in advance, resulting in late notification to the Coast Guard. 
Event Power is unable to reschedule the event as the triathlon is being 
held in conjunction with additional prescheduled activities occurring 
the same weekend, and because of the difficulty of rescheduling the 
early morning start of the swim event with the desired high tide cycle. 
While the event impacts a navigable channel, there is little commercial 
traffic along the affected section of the Peconic River and the swim 
event is expected to last approximately one hour.
    The Coast Guard received a marine event application for the Go 4th 
Saltaire Bay Fireworks Display on April 19, 2013. This is a new event 
and the event sponsor, Go 4th Committee, was not aware of the 
requirement for submitting a request for a new event 135 days in

[[Page 41301]]

advance. Therefore, Go 4th Committee's event application of April 19, 
2013 has resulted in late notification to the Coast Guard. The Event 
Sponsor is unable to reschedule the event because of its association 
with Independence Day celebrations.
    In addition to the Go 4th Committee's fireworks display 
application, the Coast Guard has also received a marine event 
application for the Village of Saltaire Fireworks Display on April 25, 
2013. The event is schedule to take place on August 3, 2013. This is a 
new event and the event sponsor, Village of Saltaire, was not aware of 
the requirement for submitting a request for a new event 135 days in 
advance. As a result the application of April 25, 2013 has resulted in 
late notification to the Coast Guard. Additionally, as a result of the 
event being funded through a combination of public and private funds, 
which have been appropriated with the specific intent of holding the 
event on August 3, 2013, the Village of Saltaire is unable to 
reschedule the event.
    The Coast Guard received information about the Smith Point 
Triathlon from the event sponsor, Event Power, on May 2, 2013. The 
triathlon has been held in late August and in the same location each 
year for past six years. Event Power did not submit a marine event 
application for any previous occurrences and was not aware of the 
requirement for submitting a request for a new event 135 days in 
advance, resulting in late notification to the Coast Guard. Event Power 
is unwilling and unable to reschedule the event because of its previous 
history and present advertising of the event occurring in late August 
and in its current location. Further, rescheduling for a later date 
would move the event into the fall and put event participants, support 
personnel, and other waterway users at greater risk due to lower water 
temperatures. The event does not impact a navigable channel and the 
swim event is expected to last approximately one hour.
    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. The earliest event identified in 
this rule is scheduled to begin on June 30, 2013. This rule is unlikely 
to be published before that date and any delay in the effective period 
could increase the risk for event participants and other waterway 
users.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for this temporary rule is 33 U.S.C. 1226, 1231, 
1233; 46 U.S.C. Chapters 454, 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; 
Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1 which 
collectively authorize the Coast Guard to define regulatory special 
local regulations and safety zones.
    This temporary rule establishes special local regulations and 
safety zones in order to provide for the safety of life on navigable 
waterways during regattas, fireworks displays and swim events.

C. Discussion of the Temporary Final Rule

    This temporary rule modifies one special local regulation for a 
regatta and establishes safety zones for two swim events and two 
fireworks displays.

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

    The Connecticut River Raft Race involves many participants 
operating human-powered and/or sail-powered vessels of their own design 
and construction along a stretch of the Connecticut River near 
Middletown, CT. Due to the hazards facing these participants, including 
the unknown and/or untested seaworthiness of their vessels and 
potential limitations to vessel navigation and/or maneuverability, a 
regulated area is needed to protect participants, spectators and other 
waterway users. The Riverhead Rocks Triathlon and Smith Point Triathlon 
each incorporate swim legs that will place many swimmers in navigable 
waters. A regulated area is required to minimize the hazards posed by 
spectators and other waterway users operating their vessels in close 
proximity to the event participants. The safety zones established for 
these swim events will minimize risk from boat traffic to the 
participants and improve visibility and maneuverability for the safety 
vessels supporting these events. The fireworks displays listed above 
are expected to attract large numbers of spectator vessels that will 
congregate around the location of these events. Regulated areas, 
specifically safety zones, are established for each of these fireworks 
displays and are needed to protect both spectators and participants 
from the safety hazards created by them, including unexpected 
pyrotechnics detonation and burning debris.

[[Page 41302]]

    This rule prevents vessels from entering, transiting, mooring or 
anchoring within areas specifically designated as regulated areas 
during the periods of enforcement unless authorized by the COTP or 
designated representative.
    The Coast Guard has determined that these regulated areas will not 
have a significant impact on vessel traffic due to their temporary 
nature, limited size, and the fact that vessels are allowed to transit 
the navigable waters outside of the regulated areas. The COTP will 
cause public notifications to be made by all appropriate means 
including but not limited to the Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast 
Notice to Mariners.

D. Regulatory Analyses

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

1. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This 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.
    The Coast Guard determined that this rule is not a significant 
regulatory action for the following reasons: The regulated areas will 
be of limited duration and cover only a small portion of the navigable 
waterways. Furthermore, vessels may transit the navigable waterways 
outside of the regulated areas. Vessels requiring entry into the 
regulated areas may be authorized to do so by the COTP or designated 
representative.
    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.

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 rule 
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of 
small entities.
    The temporary safety zones will not have a significant economic 
impact on a substantial number of small entities for the following 
reasons: The regulated areas 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 regulated 
areas. Additionally, notifications will be made before the effective 
period by all appropriate means, including but not limited to the Local 
Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to Mariners well in advance of 
the events.

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 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.
    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.

4. Collection of Information

    This 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 analyzed this 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 rule will not result in 
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere 
in this preamble.

8. 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.

9. 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.

10. 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.

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.

[[Page 41303]]

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 the establishment of special local 
regulations and safety zones. This rule is categorically excluded from 
further review under paragraphs 34(g) and (h) 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.

addition, members of the Coast Guard Auxiliary may be present to inform 
vessel operators of this regulation.
    (2) Official Patrol Vessels. Official patrol vessels may consist of 
any Coast Guard, Coast Guard Auxiliary, state, or local law enforcement 
vessels assigned or approved by the COTP.
