SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
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(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 Coast Guard received the
information about the fireworks display
on April 10, 2014, and the fireworks
display would occur before the
rulemaking process would be
completed. Because of the dangers
posed by the pyrotechnics used in this
fireworks display, the safety zone is
necessary to provide for the safety of
event participants, spectators, spectator
craft, and other vessels transiting the
event area. For the safety concerns
noted, it is in the public interest to have
these regulations in effect during the
event.
B. Basis and Purpose
The legal basis for the proposed rule
is 33 U.S.C 1231; 46 U.S.C Chapter 701,
3306, 3703; 50 U.S.C. 191, 195; 33 CFR
1.05–1, 6.04–1, 6.04–6, 160.5; Public
Law 107–295, 116 Stat. 2064;
Department of Homeland Security
Delegation No. 0170.1, which
collectively authorize the Coast Guard
to establish safety zones.
Village West Marina will sponsor the
Village West Marina 4th of July
Fireworks Display on July 4, 2014, in
Wright Tract over Fourteenmile Slough
near Stockton, CA in approximate
position 38°00′08″ N, 121°22′17″ W
(NAD 83) as depicted in National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) Chart 18663.
Upon the commencement of the
fireworks display, the safety zone will
encompass the navigable waters around
the launch site within a radius of 420

Frm 00011
Fmt 4700

32167
feet. The fireworks display is meant for
entertainment purposes. This restricted
area around the launch site is necessary
to protect spectators, vessels, and other
property from the hazards associated
with the pyrotechnics.
C. Discussion of the Final Rule
The Coast Guard will enforce a safety
zone in navigable waters around the
land based launch site in Wright Tract
over Fourteenmile Slough near
Stockton, CA. Upon the commencement
of the 20 minute fireworks display,
scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. on July 4,
2014, the safety zone will encompass
the navigable waters around the
fireworks launch site within a radius
420 feet from approximate position
38°00′08″ N, 121°22′17″ W (NAD 83) for
the Village West Marina 4th of July
Fireworks Display. At the conclusion of
the fireworks display the safety zone
shall terminate.
The effect of the temporary safety
zone will be to restrict navigation in the
vicinity of the launch site until the
conclusion of the scheduled display.
Except for persons or vessels authorized
by the Coast Guard Patrol Commander,
no person or vessel may enter or remain
in the restricted area. These regulations
are needed to keep spectators and
vessels away from the immediate
vicinity of the launch site to ensure the
safety of participants, spectators, and
transiting vessels.
D. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this rule after
considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking.
Below we summarize our analyses
based on 13 of 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.
We expect the economic impact of
this rule will not rise to the level of
necessitating a full Regulatory
Evaluation. The safety zone is limited in
duration, and is limited to a narrowly
tailored geographic area. In addition,
although this rule restricts access to the
waters encompassed by the safety zone,
the effect of this rule will not be
E:\FR\FM\04JNR1.SGM
04JNR1
32168
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 107 / Wednesday, June 4, 2014 / Rules and Regulations
significant because the local waterway
users will be notified via public
Broadcast Notice to Mariners to ensure
the safety zone will result in minimum
impact. The entities most likely to be
affected are pleasure craft engaged in
recreational activities.
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 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.
This rule may affect owners and
operators of waterfront facilities,
commercial vessels, and pleasure craft
engaged in recreational activities and
sightseeing. This safety zone would not
have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities
for the following reasons. This safety
zone would be activated, and thus
subject to enforcement, for a limited
duration. When the safety zone is
activated, vessel traffic could pass safely
around the safety zone. The maritime
public will be advised in advance of this
safety zone via Broadcast Notice to
Mariners.

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.
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 of limited size and duration. This
rule is categorically excluded from
further review 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.

II. What does this technical correction
do?
EPA issued a final rule in the Federal
Register of August 16, 2013 (78 FR
49927) (FRL–9394–8) that established a
tolerance for residues of the herbicide
imazapic in or on the commodity
sugarcane, cane. EPA inadvertently
omitted the footnote ‘‘There are no US
registrations as of August 16, 2013.’’ in
the tolerance table denoting that the
established tolerance on sugarcane, cane
is an import tolerance only.
III. Why is this correction issued as a
final rule?
Section 553 of the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B)) provides that, when an
Agency for good cause finds that notice
and public procedure are impracticable,
unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest, the Agency may issue a final
rule without providing notice and an
opportunity for public comment. EPA
has determined that there is good cause
for making this technical correction
final without prior proposal and
opportunity for comment, because the
addition of a footnote to the tolerance
table for the reason stated in Unit II, is
not a significant change and does not
affect the outcomes of the August 16,
2013 final rule. EPA finds that this
constitutes good cause under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(3)(B).
IV. Do any of the statutory and
executive order reviews apply to this
action?
All applicable statutory requirements
were discussed in the final rule that was
published on August 16, 2013.
V. Congressional Review Act
Pursuant to the Congressional Review
Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), EPA will
submit a report containing this rule and
other required information to the U.S.
Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller
General of the United States prior to
publication of this rule in the Federal
Register. This final rule is not a ‘‘major
rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

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(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 Coast Guard received the
information about the fireworks display on April 10, 2014, and the
fireworks display would occur before the rulemaking process would be
completed. Because of the dangers posed by the pyrotechnics used in
this fireworks display, the safety zone is necessary to provide for the
safety of event participants, spectators, spectator craft, and other
vessels transiting the event area. For the safety concerns noted, it is
in the public interest to have these regulations in effect during the
event.
B. Basis and Purpose
The legal basis for the proposed rule is 33 U.S.C 1231; 46 U.S.C
Chapter 701, 3306, 3703; 50 U.S.C. 191, 195; 33 CFR 1.05-1, 6.04-1,
6.04-6, 160.5; Public Law 107-295, 116 Stat. 2064; Department of
Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1, which collectively authorize
the Coast Guard to establish safety zones.
Village West Marina will sponsor the Village West Marina 4th of
July Fireworks Display on July 4, 2014, in Wright Tract over
Fourteenmile Slough near Stockton, CA in approximate position
38[deg]00'08'' N, 121[deg]22'17'' W (NAD 83) as depicted in National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Chart 18663. Upon the
commencement of the fireworks display, the safety zone will encompass
the navigable waters around the launch site within a radius of 420
feet. The fireworks display is meant for entertainment purposes. This
restricted area around the launch site is necessary to protect
spectators, vessels, and other property from the hazards associated
with the pyrotechnics.
C. Discussion of the Final Rule
The Coast Guard will enforce a safety zone in navigable waters
around the land based launch site in Wright Tract over Fourteenmile
Slough near Stockton, CA. Upon the commencement of the 20 minute
fireworks display, scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. on July 4, 2014, the
safety zone will encompass the navigable waters around the fireworks
launch site within a radius 420 feet from approximate position
38[deg]00'08'' N, 121[deg]22'17'' W (NAD 83) for the Village West
Marina 4th of July Fireworks Display. At the conclusion of the
fireworks display the safety zone shall terminate.
The effect of the temporary safety zone will be to restrict
navigation in the vicinity of the launch site until the conclusion of
the scheduled display. Except for persons or vessels authorized by the
Coast Guard Patrol Commander, no person or vessel may enter or remain
in the restricted area. These regulations are needed to keep spectators
and vessels away from the immediate vicinity of the launch site to
ensure the safety of participants, spectators, and transiting vessels.
D. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on 13 of 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.
We expect the economic impact of this rule will not rise to the
level of necessitating a full Regulatory Evaluation. The safety zone is
limited in duration, and is limited to a narrowly tailored geographic
area. In addition, although this rule restricts access to the waters
encompassed by the safety zone, the effect of this rule will not be
[[Page 32168]]
significant because the local waterway users will be notified via
public Broadcast Notice to Mariners to ensure the safety zone will
result in minimum impact. The entities most likely to be affected are
pleasure craft engaged in recreational activities.
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 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.
This rule may affect owners and operators of waterfront facilities,
commercial vessels, and pleasure craft engaged in recreational
activities and sightseeing. This safety zone would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
for the following reasons. This safety zone would be activated, and
thus subject to enforcement, for a limited duration. When the safety
zone is activated, vessel traffic could pass safely around the safety
zone. The maritime public will be advised in advance of this safety
zone via Broadcast Notice to Mariners.
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.
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 of limited size and
duration. This rule is categorically excluded from further review 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.
