SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

SUMMARY:
On December 24, 2014, The Coast
Guard published an NPRM entitled
Safety Zones; Annual Events Requiring
Safety Zones in the Captain of the Port
Lake Michigan Zone in the Federal
Register (79 FR 77415). We did not
receive any comments in response to the
proposed rule. No public meeting was
requested and none was held.
B. Basis and Purpose
The legal basis for this rule is the
Coast Guard’s authority to establish
safety zones: 33 U.S.C. 1231; 33 CFR
1.05–1, 160.5; Department of Homeland
Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
This rule amends 18 permanent safety
zones found within table 165.929 of 33
CFR 165.929. These 18 amendments
involve updating the location, size, and/
or enforcement times for: 13 fireworks
displays in various locations; 1 regatta
in Spring Lake, Michigan; 1 Air Show
near Oshkosh, Wisconsin; 1 Air Show in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin; 1 Vessel Launch
Operation in Marinette, Wisconsin; and
1 high-speed boat race in Elgin, Illinois.
The Coast Guard updates the safety
zones in § 165.929 to ensure that vessels
and persons are protected from the
specific hazards related to the
aforementioned events. These specific
hazards include obstructions to the
waterway that may cause marine
casualties; collisions among vessels
maneuvering at a high speed within a
channel; the explosive danger of
fireworks; and flaming debris falling
into the water that may cause injuries.
Additionally, this rule adds 5 new
safety zones to table 165.929 within
§ 165.929 for annually-reoccurring
events in the Captain of the Port Lake
Michigan Zone. These 5 zones were
added in order to protect the public
from the safety hazards previously
described. The 5 additions include 4
safety zones for fireworks displays, and
1 safety zone for a ski show in the Fox
River, Green Bay, Wisconsin.
In this rule, the Coast Guard also
changed the format of latitude/longitude
coordinates for safety zones in Table
165.929 of § 165.929 from degrees,
minutes, seconds to degrees with
decimal minutes. This change of format
was made in an effort to improve
precision and make the information
more compatible with currently-used,
electronic positioning systems.

during annual marine or triggering
events in the Captain of the Port Lake
Michigan zone. Although this rule will
be effective year-round, the safety zones
in this rule will be enforced only
immediately before, during, and after
events that pose a hazard to the public
and only upon notice by the Captain of
the Port Lake Michigan.
The Captain of the Port Lake
Michigan will notify the public that the
zones in this rule are or will be enforced
by all appropriate means to the affected
segments of the public, including
publication in the Federal Register, as
practicable, in accordance with 33 CFR
165.7(a). Such means of notification
may also include, but are not limited to,
Broadcast Notice to Mariners or Local
Notice to Mariners.
All persons and vessels must comply
with the instructions of the Coast Guard
Captain of the Port Lake Michigan or his
or her designated representative. Entry
into, transiting, or anchoring within the
safety zones is prohibited unless
authorized by the Captain of the Port or
his or her designated representative.
The Captain of the Port or his or her
designated representative may be
contacted via VHF Channel 16.
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 or 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, and does not
require an assessment of potential costs
and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that
Order. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under that
Order. It is not ‘‘significant’’ under the
regulatory policies and procedures of
the Department of Homeland Security
(DHS). We conclude that this rule is not
a significant regulatory action because
we anticipate that it will have minimal
impact on the economy, will not
interfere with other agencies, will not
adversely alter the budget of any grant
or loan recipients, and will not raise any
novel legal or policy issues. The safety
zones created by this rule will be
relatively small. Also, the safety zones
are designed to minimize impact on
navigable waters. Furthermore, the
safety zones have been designed to
allow vessels to transit unrestricted
portions of the waterways not affected
by the safety zones. Thus, restrictions
on vessel movements within the
E:\FR\FM\18FER1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 32 / Wednesday, February 18, 2015 / Rules and Regulations
8537
entities that question or complain about
this rule or any policy or action of the
Coast Guard.
would not create an environmental risk
to health or risk to safety that might
disproportionately affect children.
4. Collection of Information
11. Indian Tribal Governments
This rule calls for no new collection
of information under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520).
2. Impact on Small Entities
The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980
(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 would not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
This rule will affect the following
entities, some of which might be small
entities: The owners and operators of
vessels intending to transit or anchor in
the areas designated as safety zones
during the dates and times the safety
zones are being enforced.
These safety zones will not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities for
the reasons cited in the Regulatory
Planning and Review section.
Additionally, before the enforcement of
these zones, we would issue a local
Broadcast Notice to Mariners so vessel
owners and operators can plan
accordingly.
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.
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES
affected area are expected to be
minimal. Under certain conditions,
moreover, vessels may still transit
through the safety zones when
permitted by the Captain of the Port
Lake Michigan. Overall, we expect the
economic impact of this rule to be
minimal and that a full Regulatory
Evaluation is unnecessary.
5. Federalism
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.
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 so that they can
better evaluate its effects on them and
participate in the rulemaking process. If
this 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 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section, above. The Coast
Guard will not retaliate against small
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:46 Feb 17, 2015
Jkt 235001
A rule has implications for federalism
under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct
effect on State or local governments and
would either preempt State law or
impose a substantial direct cost of
compliance on them. We have analyzed
this rule under that Order and have
determined that it 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
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 rule would not affect 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

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 which do not
individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human
environment. This rule involves the
establishment of safety zones and thus,
is categorically excluded under
paragraph (34)(g) of the Instruction. An
environmental analysis checklist
supporting this determination is
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.

2. Revise § 165.929 to read as follows:
§ 165.929 Safety Zones; Annual events
requiring safety zones in the Captain of the
Port Lake Michigan zone.
(a) Regulations. The following
regulations apply to the safety zones
listed in Table 165.929 of this section.
(1) The general regulations in
§ 165.23.
(2) All vessels must obtain permission
from the Captain of the Port Lake
Michigan or his or her designated
representative to enter, move within, or
exit a safety zone established in this
section when the safety zone is
enforced. Vessels and persons granted
permission to enter one of the safety
zones listed in this section must obey all
lawful orders or directions of the
Captain of the Port Lake Michigan or his
or her designated representative. Upon
being hailed by the U.S. Coast Guard by
siren, radio, flashing light or other
means, the operator of a vessel must
proceed as directed.
(3) The enforcement dates and times
for each of the safety zones listed in
Table 165.929 of this section are subject
to change, but the duration of
enforcement would remain the same or
nearly the same total number of hours
as stated in the table. In the event of a
change, the Captain of the Port Lake
Michigan will provide notice to the
public by publishing a Notice of
Enforcement in the Federal Register, as
well as, issuing a Broadcast Notice to
Mariners.
(b) Definitions. The following
definitions apply to this section:
(1) Designated representative means
any Coast Guard commissioned,
warrant, or petty officer designated by
the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan
to monitor a safety zone, permit entry
into a safety zone, give legally
enforceable orders to persons or vessels
within a safety zone, and take other
actions authorized by the Captain of the
Port Lake Michigan.
(2) Public vessel means a vessel that
is owned, chartered, or operated by the
United States, or by a State or political
subdivision thereof.
(3) Rain date refers to an alternate
date and/or time in which the safety
zone would be enforced in the event of
inclement weather.
(c) Suspension of enforcement. The
Captain of the Port Lake Michigan may
suspend enforcement of any of these
zones earlier than listed in this section.
Should the Captain of the Port suspend
any of these zones earlier than the listed
duration in this section, he or she may
make the public aware of this
suspension by Broadcast Notice to
Mariners and/or on-scene notice by his
or her designated representative.
(d) Exemption. Public vessels, as
defined in paragraph (b) of this section,
are exempt from the requirements in
this section.
(e) Waiver. For any vessel, the Captain
of the Port Lake Michigan or his or her
designated representative may waive
any of the requirements of this section
upon finding that operational
conditions or other circumstances are
such that application of this section is
unnecessary or impractical for the
purposes of safety or security.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Table of Acronyms
DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register,
NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
TFR Temporary Final Rule
A. Regulatory History and Information
On December 24, 2014, The Coast Guard published an NPRM entitled
Safety Zones; Annual Events Requiring Safety Zones in the Captain of
the Port Lake Michigan Zone in the Federal Register (79 FR 77415). We
did not receive any comments in response to the proposed rule. No
public meeting was requested and none was held.
B. Basis and Purpose
The legal basis for this rule is the Coast Guard's authority to
establish safety zones: 33 U.S.C. 1231; 33 CFR 1.05-1, 160.5;
Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
This rule amends 18 permanent safety zones found within table
165.929 of 33 CFR 165.929. These 18 amendments involve updating the
location, size, and/or enforcement times for: 13 fireworks displays in
various locations; 1 regatta in Spring Lake, Michigan; 1 Air Show near
Oshkosh, Wisconsin; 1 Air Show in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; 1 Vessel Launch
Operation in Marinette, Wisconsin; and 1 high-speed boat race in Elgin,
Illinois. The Coast Guard updates the safety zones in Sec. 165.929 to
ensure that vessels and persons are protected from the specific hazards
related to the aforementioned events. These specific hazards include
obstructions to the waterway that may cause marine casualties;
collisions among vessels maneuvering at a high speed within a channel;
the explosive danger of fireworks; and flaming debris falling into the
water that may cause injuries.
Additionally, this rule adds 5 new safety zones to table 165.929
within Sec. 165.929 for annually-reoccurring events in the Captain of
the Port Lake Michigan Zone. These 5 zones were added in order to
protect the public from the safety hazards previously described. The 5
additions include 4 safety zones for fireworks displays, and 1 safety
zone for a ski show in the Fox River, Green Bay, Wisconsin.
In this rule, the Coast Guard also changed the format of latitude/
longitude coordinates for safety zones in Table 165.929 of Sec.
165.929 from degrees, minutes, seconds to degrees with decimal minutes.
This change of format was made in an effort to improve precision and
make the information more compatible with currently-used, electronic
positioning systems.
C. Discussion of Comments, Changes and the Final Rule
The Captain of the Port Lake Michigan has determined that the
safety zones in this rule are necessary to ensure the safety of vessels
and people during annual marine or triggering events in the Captain of
the Port Lake Michigan zone. Although this rule will be effective year-
round, the safety zones in this rule will be enforced only immediately
before, during, and after events that pose a hazard to the public and
only upon notice by the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan.
The Captain of the Port Lake Michigan will notify the public that
the zones in this rule are or will be enforced by all appropriate means
to the affected segments of the public, including publication in the
Federal Register, as practicable, in accordance with 33 CFR 165.7(a).
Such means of notification may also include, but are not limited to,
Broadcast Notice to Mariners or Local Notice to Mariners.
All persons and vessels must comply with the instructions of the
Coast Guard Captain of the Port Lake Michigan or his or her designated
representative. Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the safety
zones is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port or his
or her designated representative. The Captain of the Port or his or her
designated representative may be contacted via VHF Channel 16.
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 or 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, and does not
require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section
6(a)(3) of that Order. The Office of Management and Budget has not
reviewed it under that Order. It is not ``significant'' under the
regulatory policies and procedures of the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS). We conclude that this rule is not a significant
regulatory action because we anticipate that it will have minimal
impact on the economy, will not interfere with other agencies, will not
adversely alter the budget of any grant or loan recipients, and will
not raise any novel legal or policy issues. The safety zones created by
this rule will be relatively small. Also, the safety zones are designed
to minimize impact on navigable waters. Furthermore, the safety zones
have been designed to allow vessels to transit unrestricted portions of
the waterways not affected by the safety zones. Thus, restrictions on
vessel movements within the
[[Page 8537]]
affected area are expected to be minimal. Under certain conditions,
moreover, vessels may still transit through the safety zones when
permitted by the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan. Overall, we expect
the economic impact of this rule to be minimal and that a full
Regulatory Evaluation is unnecessary.
2. Impact on Small Entities
The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (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
would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities.
This rule will affect the following entities, some of which might
be small entities: The owners and operators of vessels intending to
transit or anchor in the areas designated as safety zones during the
dates and times the safety zones are being enforced.
These safety zones will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities for the reasons cited in the
Regulatory Planning and Review section. Additionally, before the
enforcement of these zones, we would issue a local Broadcast Notice to
Mariners so vessel owners and operators can plan accordingly.
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 rule so that they can better evaluate
its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking process. If this
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 FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section, above. 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 calls for no 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 State or local
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial
direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this rule under
that Order and have determined that it 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 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 rule would not affect 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 would not create an
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that might
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 which do not
individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human
environment. This rule involves the establishment of safety zones and
thus, is categorically excluded under paragraph (34)(g) of the
Instruction. An environmental analysis checklist supporting this
determination is 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.

Captain of the Port Lake Michigan will provide notice to the public by
publishing a Notice of Enforcement in the Federal Register, as well as,
issuing a Broadcast Notice to Mariners.
(b) Definitions. The following definitions apply to this section:
(1) Designated representative means any Coast Guard commissioned,
warrant, or petty officer designated by the Captain of the Port Lake
Michigan to monitor a safety zone, permit entry into a safety zone,
give legally enforceable orders to persons or vessels within a safety
zone, and take other actions authorized by the Captain of the Port Lake
Michigan.
(2) Public vessel means a vessel that is owned, chartered, or
operated by the United States, or by a State or political subdivision
thereof.
(3) Rain date refers to an alternate date and/or time in which the
safety zone would be enforced in the event of inclement weather.
(c) Suspension of enforcement. The Captain of the Port Lake
Michigan may suspend enforcement of any of these zones earlier than
