Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 9 / Tuesday, January 14, 2014 / Rules and Regulations FinCEN regulations, the Commission is adopting technical amendments to part 42 of its regulations to replace outdated references to part 103 with the appropriate references to chapter X. III. Related Matters A. Administrative Procedure Act Notice of proposed rulemaking is not required under section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act (‘‘APA’’) when an agency, for good cause, finds ‘‘that notice and public procedure thereon are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.’’ 12 The amendments described herein are technical changes that are required to correct inaccurate crossreferences in the relevant regulation and will not impose any new substantive regulatory requirements on any person. For these reasons, the Commission finds that it is unnecessary to publish notice of these amendments under section 553(b)(3)(B) of the APA. The Commission also finds good cause to dispense with the 30-day delayed effective date requirement under section 553(d)(3) of the APA.13 The technical amendments update inaccurate cross references. Accordingly, the amendments will be effective on the date of publication of this action, January 14, 2014. pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with RULES B. Regulatory Flexibility Analysis The Regulatory Flexibility Act (‘‘RFA’’) requires the Commission to consider whether a rule it proposes will have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities and either provide a regulatory flexibility analysis respecting the significant impact or certify that the rule will not have such an impact.14 The RFA is applicable only to a rule for which the Commission publishes a general notice of proposed rulemaking pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b).15 The Commission has determined that it is unnecessary to publish a general notice of proposed rulemaking for the amendments to part 42 of the Commission regulations that are being adopted by this notice, as the amendments are only technical in nature and do not subject any party to any new substantive regulatory requirements. Therefore, neither a regulatory flexibility analysis nor a certification is required for this rulemaking action. 12 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). 13 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3). 14 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq. 15 5 U.S.C. 601(2).

Paperwork Reduction Act An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it is approved by the Office of Management and Budget as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act.16 This final rulemaking will not impose any new recordkeeping or information collection requirements, or other collections of information.

The authority citation for part 42 continues to read as follows: ■ Authority: 7 U.S.C. 1a, 2, 5, 6, 6b, 6d, 6f, 6g, 7, 7a, 7a–1, 7a–2, 7b, 7b–1, 7b–2, 9, 12, 12a, 12c, 13a, 13a–1, 13c, 16 and 21; 12 U.S.C. 1786(q), 1818, 1829b and 1951–1959; 31 U.S.C. 5311–5314 and 5316–5332; title III, secs. 312–314, 319, 321, 326, 352, Pub. L. 107–56, 115 Stat. 307. 2. Section 42.2 is revised to read as follows: ■ Section 15(a) of the Commodity Exchange Act (‘‘CEA’’) 17 requires the Commission to consider the costs and benefits of its actions before promulgating a regulation under the CEA. Section 15(a) specifies that the costs and benefits shall be considered against five broad areas of market and public concern: (1) Protection of market participants and the public; (2) efficiency, competitiveness and financial integrity of futures markets; (3) price discovery; (4) sound risk management practices; and (5) other public interest considerations. The Commission may give greater weight to one or more of the five enumerated considerations to determine, in its discretion, that a particular rule is necessary or appropriate to protect the public interest or to effectuate any of the provisions or accomplish any of the purposes of the CEA. This final rule does not impose any substantive regulatory obligations on any person. Rather, the Commission solely is adopting technical amendments to § 42.2 of its regulations to ensure that its regulations implementing its BSA examination authority accurately refer to the BSA regulations administered by FinCEN. Accordingly, there are no quantifiable costs associated with this rulemaking. The sole qualitative benefit associated with this rulemaking is accuracy.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Table of Acronyms DHS Department of Homeland Security FR Federal Register NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with RULES A. Regulatory History and 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 12:41 Jan 13, 2014 Jkt 232001 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 it is impracticable and unnecessary. Immediate action is necessary to provide for the safety of life and property in the navigable water. Publishing an NPRM is impracticable because the final details for the dredging operation were not received by the Coast Guard until December 2, 2013 and there was insufficient time to allow for a comment period. Publishing an NPRM is unnecessary because very few members of the public will be affected by the regulations established by this Final Rule. The regulations being created are temporary and will only impact a small number of vessels in a limited geographic area. Failure to establish these regulations may present hazards to sessels transiting or attempting to transit Marcus Hook Range and the adjacent anchorage during pipe-laying or dredging operations. Delaying this rule to wait for a notice and comment period to run would be contrary to the public interest as it would inhibit the Coast Guard’s ability to protect the public from the hazards associated with pipe-laying and dredging operations. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds for the same reasons described in the previous paragraph that good cause exists for making this rule effective less than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. B. Basis and Purpose On July 15, 2005, the Coast Guard published a final rule entitled ‘‘Anchorage Grounds and Safety Zone; Delaware River’’ in the Federal Register (70 FR 40885). This rule established regulations for the annual dredging operations that take place in the Marcus Hook Range from September 1 through December 31. To reduce the hazards associated with the dredging operations, vessel traffic that normally transits through the Marcus Hook Range is diverted through part of Anchorage 7 during dredging operations. As a result, the rule places additional requirements and restrictions on the use of Anchorage 7 and Anchorage 6. In addition, a permanent safety zone was placed in waters within a 150 yard radius around vessels engaged in dredging operations. Norfolk Dredging Company has been hired by the Army Corps of Engineers to conduct the annual dredging in Marcus Hook Range. This year, dredging operations began on December 10, 2013, which is later in the year than previous dredging operations. This has made it PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 necessary to extend the effective period of the existing regulations to ensure the safety of mariners transiting the area from the potential hazards associated with pipe laying and dredging operations. C. Discussion of the Temporary Final Rule The Captain of the Port Sector Delaware Bay is extending the effective period of the regulations found in 33 CFR 165.555 and 33 CFR 110.157 for the duration of the dredging operation in Marcus Hook Range. These regulations will be in effect until February 28, 2014, unless cancelled earlier by the Captain of the Port. The safety zone being established will include waters within a 150 yard radius of the dredge performing the dredging operations. Vessels transiting the Marcus Hook Range will have to divert from the main ship channel through Anchorage 7 and must operate at the minimum safe speed necessary to maintain steerage and reduce wake. Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the safety zone is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port, Sector Delaware Bay, or her on-scene representative. Certain requirements will also be in place for vessels using the affected anchorages. During the effective period, vessels desiring to use Marcus Hook Anchorage (Anchorage 7), must obtain permission from the Captain of the Port Sector Delaware Bay at least 24 hours in advance. The Captain of the Port will permit only one vessel at a time to anchor in Anchorage 7 and will grant permission on a ‘‘first come, first served’’ basis. That vessel will be directed to a location within Anchorage 7 where it may anchor for a period not to exceed 12 hours. Vessels normally permitted to anchor in Anchorage 7 will be expected to use the next closest anchorage grounds, Anchorage 6 off Deepwater Point or Anchorage 9 near the entrance to Mantua Creek. To control access to Anchorages 6 and 9, the Coast Guard requires that any vessel 700 feet or greater in length to obtain advance notice from the Captain of the Port before anchoring. Any vessel 700 to 750 feet in length is required to have one tug standing alongside while at anchor and any vessel over 750 feet in length will require two tugs standing alongside. Any tug being utilized for this purpose must have sufficient horsepower to assist with necessary maneuvers to keep the vessel clear of the navigational channel. The Captain of the Port, Sector Delaware Bay, or her onscene representative may be contacted via VHF channel 16. E:\FR\FM\14JAR1.SGM 14JAR1 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 9 / Tuesday, January 14, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 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 does not anticipate any significant economic impact because the safety zone will be enforced in an area and in a manner that does not conflict with transiting commercial and recreational traffic since vessels will be able to pass through Anchorage 7. During the enforcement period, vessels may request permission to transit through the safety zone. Permission may be granted by the Captain of the Port on a case-by-case basis. The operator of any vessel in the safety zone shall proceed as directed by the designated representative of the Captain of the Port and shall contact the Dredge ESSEX on VHF channel 13 or 16 at least 30 minutes prior to arrival for passing information. Although this regulation requires certain vessels to have one or two tugs alongside while at anchor, the requirement only applies to vessels 700 feet or greater in length that choose to anchor in Anchorages 6 and 9. Alternate anchorage grounds such as Anchorage A off the entrance to the Mispillion River and Anchorage 1 (Bombay Hook) off Bombay Hook Point in Delaware Bay, are reasonably close and generally available. pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with RULES 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 12:41 Jan 13, 2014 Jkt 232001 a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities: (1) This rule will affect the following entities, some of which might be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels intending to operate, transit, or anchor in Anchorage 7 from January 1, 2014 until February 28, 2014 unless cancelled earlier by the Captain of the Port. (2) This safety zone will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: This rule will only be enforced for a short period of time. In the event that this temporary safety zone affects shipping, commercial vessels may request permission from the Captain of the Port, Sector Delaware Bay, to transit through the safety zone. Before activation of the zone, we will give notice to the public via a Broadcast Notice to Mariners that the regulation is in effect. 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 PO 00000 Frm 00015 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 2373 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 E:\FR\FM\14JAR1.SGM 14JAR1 2374 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 9 / Tuesday, January 14, 2014 / Rules and Regulations Authority: 33 U.S.C. 471; 1221 through 1236, 2030, 2035, and 2071; Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1 and 33 CFR 1.05–1(g). 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 anchorages and safety zones on the navigable waters of the United States under 33 CFR Parts 110 and 165. This zone will temporarily restrict vessel traffic from transiting through a portion of Marcus Hook Range in order to protect the safety of life and property on the waters while submerged dredge pipe-laying and dredging operations are conducted. This rule is categorically excluded from further review under paragraphs 34(f) and 34(g) of Figure 2– 1 of the Commandant Instruction. A checklist and categorical exclusion determination are available in the docket. We seek any comments or information that may lead to the discovery of a significant environmental impact from this rule.

Anchorage Grounds and Safety Zone, Delaware River; Marcus Hook, 
PA

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing temporary regulations in

[[Page 2372]]

support of the annual U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) dredging of 
Marcus Hook Range in the Delaware River. Anchorage restrictions and a 
safety zone affecting the Marcus Hook area of the Delaware River are in 
place every year from September 1 through December 31. The dredging 
operations taking place this year require the regulations to remain in 
place through February 28, 2014. This final rule establishes temporary 
regulations to extend the time that those regulations are in place.

DATES: This rule is effective without actual notice from January 14, 
2014 until February 28, 2014. For the purposes of enforcement, actual 
notice will be used from the date the rule was signed, December 30, 
2013, until January 14, 2014.

NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

A. Regulatory History and 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 it is impracticable and unnecessary. 
Immediate action is necessary to provide for the safety of life and 
property in the navigable water. Publishing an NPRM is impracticable 
because the final details for the dredging operation were not received 
by the Coast Guard until December 2, 2013 and there was insufficient 
time to allow for a comment period. Publishing an NPRM is unnecessary 
because very few members of the public will be affected by the 
regulations established by this Final Rule. The regulations being 
created are temporary and will only impact a small number of vessels in 
a limited geographic area. Failure to establish these regulations may 
present hazards to sessels transiting or attempting to transit Marcus 
Hook Range and the adjacent anchorage during pipe-laying or dredging 
operations. Delaying this rule to wait for a notice and comment period 
to run would be contrary to the public interest as it would inhibit the 
Coast Guard's ability to protect the public from the hazards associated 
with pipe-laying and dredging operations.
    Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds for the same 
reasons described in the previous paragraph that good cause exists for 
making this rule effective less than 30 days after publication in the 
Federal Register.

B. Basis and Purpose

    On July 15, 2005, the Coast Guard published a final rule entitled 
``Anchorage Grounds and Safety Zone; Delaware River'' in the Federal 
Register (70 FR 40885). This rule established regulations for the 
annual dredging operations that take place in the Marcus Hook Range 
from September 1 through December 31. To reduce the hazards associated 
with the dredging operations, vessel traffic that normally transits 
through the Marcus Hook Range is diverted through part of Anchorage 7 
during dredging operations. As a result, the rule places additional 
requirements and restrictions on the use of Anchorage 7 and Anchorage 
6. In addition, a permanent safety zone was placed in waters within a 
150 yard radius around vessels engaged in dredging operations. Norfolk 
Dredging Company has been hired by the Army Corps of Engineers to 
conduct the annual dredging in Marcus Hook Range. This year, dredging 
operations began on December 10, 2013, which is later in the year than 
previous dredging operations. This has made it necessary to extend the 
effective period of the existing regulations to ensure the safety of 
mariners transiting the area from the potential hazards associated with 
pipe laying and dredging operations.

C. Discussion of the Temporary Final Rule

    The Captain of the Port Sector Delaware Bay is extending the 
effective period of the regulations found in 33 CFR 165.555 and 33 CFR 
110.157 for the duration of the dredging operation in Marcus Hook 
Range. These regulations will be in effect until February 28, 2014, 
unless cancelled earlier by the Captain of the Port. The safety zone 
being established will include waters within a 150 yard radius of the 
dredge performing the dredging operations. Vessels transiting the 
Marcus Hook Range will have to divert from the main ship channel 
through Anchorage 7 and must operate at the minimum safe speed 
necessary to maintain steerage and reduce wake. Entry into, transiting, 
or anchoring within the safety zone is prohibited unless authorized by 
the Captain of the Port, Sector Delaware Bay, or her on-scene 
representative. Certain requirements will also be in place for vessels 
using the affected anchorages. During the effective period, vessels 
desiring to use Marcus Hook Anchorage (Anchorage 7), must obtain 
permission from the Captain of the Port Sector Delaware Bay at least 24 
hours in advance. The Captain of the Port will permit only one vessel 
at a time to anchor in Anchorage 7 and will grant permission on a 
``first come, first served'' basis. That vessel will be directed to a 
location within Anchorage 7 where it may anchor for a period not to 
exceed 12 hours. Vessels normally permitted to anchor in Anchorage 7 
will be expected to use the next closest anchorage grounds, Anchorage 6 
off Deepwater Point or Anchorage 9 near the entrance to Mantua Creek. 
To control access to Anchorages 6 and 9, the Coast Guard requires that 
any vessel 700 feet or greater in length to obtain advance notice from 
the Captain of the Port before anchoring. Any vessel 700 to 750 feet in 
length is required to have one tug standing alongside while at anchor 
and any vessel over 750 feet in length will require two tugs standing 
alongside. Any tug being utilized for this purpose must have sufficient 
horsepower to assist with necessary maneuvers to keep the vessel clear 
of the navigational channel. The Captain of the Port, Sector Delaware 
Bay, or her on-scene representative may be contacted via VHF channel 
16.

[[Page 2373]]

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 does not anticipate any significant economic impact 
because the safety zone will be enforced in an area and in a manner 
that does not conflict with transiting commercial and recreational 
traffic since vessels will be able to pass through Anchorage 7. During 
the enforcement period, vessels may request permission to transit 
through the safety zone. Permission may be granted by the Captain of 
the Port on a case-by-case basis. The operator of any vessel in the 
safety zone shall proceed as directed by the designated representative 
of the Captain of the Port and shall contact the Dredge ESSEX on VHF 
channel 13 or 16 at least 30 minutes prior to arrival for passing 
information.
    Although this regulation requires certain vessels to have one or 
two tugs alongside while at anchor, the requirement only applies to 
vessels 700 feet or greater in length that choose to anchor in 
Anchorages 6 and 9. Alternate anchorage grounds such as Anchorage A off 
the entrance to the Mispillion River and Anchorage 1 (Bombay Hook) off 
Bombay Hook Point in Delaware Bay, are reasonably close and generally 
available.

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:
    (1) This rule will affect the following entities, some of which 
might be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels intending 
to operate, transit, or anchor in Anchorage 7 from January 1, 2014 
until February 28, 2014 unless cancelled earlier by the Captain of the 
Port.
    (2) This safety zone will not have a significant economic impact on 
a substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: This 
rule will only be enforced for a short period of time. In the event 
that this temporary safety zone affects shipping, commercial vessels 
may request permission from the Captain of the Port, Sector Delaware 
Bay, to transit through the safety zone. Before activation of the zone, 
we will give notice to the public via a Broadcast Notice to Mariners 
that the regulation is in effect.

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

[[Page 2374]]

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 anchorages and safety zones on the 
navigable waters of the United States under 33 CFR Parts 110 and 165. 
This zone will temporarily restrict vessel traffic from transiting 
through a portion of Marcus Hook Range in order to protect the safety 
of life and property on the waters while submerged dredge pipe-laying 
and dredging operations are conducted. This rule is categorically 
excluded from further review under paragraphs 34(f) and 34(g) of Figure 
2-1 of the Commandant Instruction. A checklist and categorical 
exclusion determination are available in the docket. We seek any 
comments or information that may lead to the discovery of a significant 
environmental impact from this rule.
