We received several requests and have concluded that public meetings would aid this rulemaking. Therefore, we are publishing this notice announcing two public meetings. We also have extended the comment period until May 26, 2014 (79 FR 17482). In the NPRM, we proposed a rule containing our assessment framework for, and restating our position regarding, the federalism implications of regulations issued under the authority of various statutes within Titles 33 and 46 of the United States Code. We proposed adding a subpart 1.06 to Title 33 of the Code of Federal regulations to discuss existing law on preemption, identify the laws and regulations that VerDate Mar<15>2010 13:55 Apr 18, 2014 Jkt 232001 have preemptive effect, and clarify (but not alter) the Coast Guard’s application of statutes and case law regarding the preemptive effect of its regulations. The proposed rule does not offer new interpretations of the preemptive impact of Coast Guard regulations, and does not propose new regulations that would impact the states’ ability to regulate and protect their waterways. Instead, our proposed rule simply restates the current preemptive impact of our regulations as they exist today. In other words, it provides a list of existing regulations that were previously determined to have preemptive impact under U.S. Supreme Court case law pronouncements on statutes implemented by the Coast Guard. Further, the proposed rule would not give preemptive impact to any specific future Coast Guard regulations. It merely provides the legal framework by which future regulations will be analyzed for preemptive impact.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background and Purpose

    We published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) in the Federal 
Register on December 27, 2013 (78 FR 79242), entitled ``Assessment 
Framework and Organizational Restatement Regarding Preemption for 
Certain Regulations Issued by the Coast Guard.'' In it we stated that 
we did not plan to hold a public meeting, but that we welcomed requests 
explaining why one would be beneficial. We received several requests 
and have concluded that public meetings would aid this rulemaking. 
Therefore, we are publishing this notice announcing two public 
meetings. We also have extended the comment period until May 26, 2014 
(79 FR 17482).
    In the NPRM, we proposed a rule containing our assessment framework 
for, and restating our position regarding, the federalism implications 
of regulations issued under the authority of various statutes within 
Titles 33 and 46 of the United States Code. We proposed adding a 
subpart 1.06 to Title 33 of the Code of Federal regulations to discuss 
existing law on preemption, identify the laws and regulations that have 
preemptive effect, and clarify (but not alter) the Coast Guard's 
application of statutes and case law regarding the preemptive effect of 
its regulations. The proposed rule does not offer new interpretations 
of the preemptive impact of Coast Guard regulations, and does not 
propose new regulations that would impact the states' ability to 
regulate and protect their waterways. Instead, our proposed rule simply 
restates the current preemptive impact of our regulations as they exist 
today. In other words, it provides a list of existing regulations that 
were previously determined to have preemptive impact under U.S. Supreme 
Court case law pronouncements on statutes implemented by the Coast 
Guard. Further, the proposed rule would not give preemptive impact to 
any specific future Coast Guard regulations. It merely provides the 
legal framework by which future regulations will be analyzed for 
preemptive impact.
    You may view the NPRM, and public comments submitted thus far, in 
our online docket by going to https://www.regulations.gov. Once there, 
search for the docket number USCG-2008-1259, and then click ``Open 
Docket Folder.'' If you do not have access to the internet, you may 
view the docket online by visiting the Docket Management Facility in 
Room W12-140 on the ground floor of the DOT West Building, 1200 New 
Jersey Avenue SE., Washington, DC 20590, between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., 
Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. We have an agreement 
with the Department of Transportation to use the Docket Management 
Facility.
    We encourage you to participate in this rulemaking by submitting 
comments either orally at the meeting or in writing. If you bring 
written comments to the meeting, you may submit them to Coast Guard 
personnel specified at the meeting to receive written comments. These 
comments will be posted to our online public docket. All comments 
received will be posted without change to https://www.regulations.gov 
and will include any personal information you have provided.
    Anyone can search the electronic form of comments received into any 
of our dockets by the name of the individual submitting the comment (or 
signing the comment, if submitted on behalf of an association, 
business, labor union, etc.). You may review a Privacy Act notice
