Temporary final rule. AGENCY: ACTION: The Coast Guard is establishing two 1000-yard temporary security zones in support of U.S. Secret Service (USSS) security operations in the navigable waters of the U.S. in portions of the coastal areas of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts. These security zones are needed to support USSS security operations and will be effective as directed by the USSS within 1000 yards of the navigable waters of the U.S. in portions of the coastal areas of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts. Vessel and people are prohibited from entering this security zone unless specifically authorized by the Captain of the Port (COTP) or the COTP’s designated on-scene representative. DATES: This rule is effective without actual notice from 6:30 a.m. on August 24, 2015 until 5 p.m. on August 24, 2015. For the purposes of enforcement, actual notice will be used from 8 a.m. rmajette on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with RULES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 12:27 Aug 21, 2015 Jkt 235001 A. Regulatory 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 of the sensitive security issues related to USSS security operations. Providing a public notice and comment period is contrary to national security concerns and 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. Any delay encountered in this temporary rule’s effective date would be contrary to the public interest given the immediate need to support USSS PO 00000 Frm 00013 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 51125 security operations in portions of the coastal areas of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts, from August 7, 2015 through August 24, 2015. B. Basis and Purpose The legal basis for this rule is 33 U.S.C. 1231; 50 U.S.C. 191; 33 CFR 1.05–1, 6.04–1, 6.04–6, 160.5; Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1, which collectively authorize the Coast Guard to establish security zones. The USSS will conduct security operations on property that borders U.S. navigable waters within the Captain of the Port, Southeastern New England zone. The USSS has requested that the Coast Guard provide 1000-yard waterside security zones from portions of the coastal areas of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts. These security zones are necessary to provide security by preventing vessels and persons from approaching the area(s) of USSS security operations without prior authorization from the COTP. C. Discussion of Rule For the reasons discussed above, the Captain of the Port, Sector Southeastern New England, is establishing a temporary security zone. The temporary security zone will be enforced from 8:00 a.m. on Friday, August 7, 2015 through 5:00 p.m. on Monday, August 24, 2015. This action is intended to temporarily prohibit vessels or people from approaching within 1000 yards of USSS security operations in portions of the coastal areas of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts. The Captain of the Port, Southeastern New England, anticipates negligible negative impact on vessel traffic from these temporary security zones, as they will be in effect for only eighteen days, and will only be enforced during USSS security operations in portions of the coastal areas of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts. It has been determined that the necessary security enhancements provided by this rule greatly outweigh any potential negative impacts. 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, and does not E:\FR\FM\24AUR1.SGM 24AUR1 51126 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 163 / Monday, August 24, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 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. The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this rule to be so minimal that a full regulatory evaluation under the regulatory policies and procedures of DHS is unnecessary. The effect of this rule will not be significant as the duration of the security zones is for only eighteen days, and will only be in effect during USSS security operations from portions of the coastal areas of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts. rmajette on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with RULES 2. Impact on Small Entities Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601–612), we have considered whether this rule would have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. 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. This rule may affect the following entities, some of which may be small entities: The owners and operators of vessels intending to transit in the vicinity of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts from 8:00 a.m. on Friday, August 7, 2015 until 5:00 p.m. on Monday, August 24, 2015. These temporary security zones will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities for all of the reasons discussed in the ‘‘Regulatory Planning and Review’’ section above. 3. Assistance for Small Entities Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–121), we offer to assist small entities in understanding the rule so that they could better evaluate its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking process. If you think your small business or organization would be affected by this rule and you have any questions concerning its provisions or options for compliance, please call Mr. Edward G. LeBlanc at (401) 435–2351. 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). VerDate Sep<11>2014 12:27 Aug 21, 2015 Jkt 235001 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 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 From Environmental Health Risks 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, PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 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 We have analyzed this rule 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 concluded 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 is categorically excluded, under figure 2–1, paragraph (34)(g) of the Instruction. This rule fits the category selected from paragraph (34)(g), as it establishes temporary security zones for a limited period of time. An environmental analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion determination will be 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.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is making determinations under the Clean Air Act (CAA) that the Chicago, Illinois and Eagan, Minnesota nonattainment areas (hereafter also referred to, respectively, as the ‘‘Chicago area,’’ ‘‘Eagan area,’’ or ‘‘areas’’) have attained the 2008 lead (Pb) national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS or standard). These determinations of attainment are based upon complete, quality-assured, and certified ambient air monitoring data for the 2012–2014 design period showing that the areas have achieved attainment of the 2008 Pb NAAQS. Additionally, as a result of these determinations, EPA is suspending the requirements for the areas to submit attainment demonstrations, and associated reasonably available control measures (RACM), reasonable further progress (RFP) plans, contingency measures for failure to meet RFP, and attainment deadlines, for as long as the areas continue to attain the 2008 Pb NAAQS. This action does not constitute a redesignation of the areas to attainment of the 2008 Pb NAAQS; the areas remain designated nonattainment until such time as EPA determines that the areas meet the CAA requirements for redesignation to attainment and takes action to redesignate the areas.

Security Zone; Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing two 1000-yard temporary 
security zones in support of U.S. Secret Service (USSS) security 
operations in the navigable waters of the U.S. in portions of the 
coastal areas of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. These security zones 
are needed to support USSS security operations and will be effective as 
directed by the USSS within 1000 yards of the navigable waters of the 
U.S. in portions of the coastal areas of Martha's Vineyard, 
Massachusetts. Vessel and people are prohibited from entering this 
security zone unless specifically authorized by the Captain of the Port 
(COTP) or the COTP's designated on-scene representative.

DATES: This rule is effective without actual notice from 6:30 a.m. on 
August 24, 2015 until 5 p.m. on August 24, 2015. For the purposes of 
enforcement, actual notice will be used from 8 a.m. on August 7, 2015, 
until this rule is effective without actual notice.

A. Regulatory 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 of the sensitive security issues 
related to USSS security operations. Providing a public notice and 
comment period is contrary to national security concerns and 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. Any delay encountered in this 
temporary rule's effective date would be contrary to the public 
interest given the immediate need to support USSS security operations 
in portions of the coastal areas of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, 
from August 7, 2015 through August 24, 2015.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for this rule is 33 U.S.C. 1231; 50 U.S.C. 191; 33 
CFR 1.05-1, 6.04-1, 6.04-6, 160.5; Department of Homeland Security 
Delegation No. 0170.1, which collectively authorize the Coast Guard to 
establish security zones.
    The USSS will conduct security operations on property that borders 
U.S. navigable waters within the Captain of the Port, Southeastern New 
England zone. The USSS has requested that the Coast Guard provide 1000-
yard waterside security zones from portions of the coastal areas of 
Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. These security zones are necessary to 
provide security by preventing vessels and persons from approaching the 
area(s) of USSS security operations without prior authorization from 
the COTP.

C. Discussion of Rule

    For the reasons discussed above, the Captain of the Port, Sector 
Southeastern New England, is establishing a temporary security zone. 
The temporary security zone will be enforced from 8:00 a.m. on Friday, 
August 7, 2015 through 5:00 p.m. on Monday, August 24, 2015.
    This action is intended to temporarily prohibit vessels or people 
from approaching within 1000 yards of USSS security operations in 
portions of the coastal areas of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts.
    The Captain of the Port, Southeastern New England, anticipates 
negligible negative impact on vessel traffic from these temporary 
security zones, as they will be in effect for only eighteen days, and 
will only be enforced during USSS security operations in portions of 
the coastal areas of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. It has been 
determined that the necessary security enhancements provided by this 
rule greatly outweigh any potential negative impacts.

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, and does 
not

[[Page 51126]]

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.
    The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this rule to be so 
minimal that a full regulatory evaluation under the regulatory policies 
and procedures of DHS is unnecessary. The effect of this rule will not 
be significant as the duration of the security zones is for only 
eighteen days, and will only be in effect during USSS security 
operations from portions of the coastal areas of Martha's Vineyard, 
Massachusetts.

2. Impact on Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have 
considered whether this rule would have a significant economic impact 
on a substantial number of small entities. 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.
    This rule may affect the following entities, some of which may be 
small entities: The owners and operators of vessels intending to 
transit in the vicinity of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts from 8:00 
a.m. on Friday, August 7, 2015 until 5:00 p.m. on Monday, August 24, 
2015. These temporary security zones will not have a significant impact 
on a substantial number of small entities for all of the reasons 
discussed in the ``Regulatory Planning and Review'' section above.

3. Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement 
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we offer to assist small 
entities in understanding the rule so that they could better evaluate 
its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking process. If you 
think your small business or organization would be affected by this 
rule and you have any questions concerning its provisions or options 
for compliance, please call Mr. Edward G. LeBlanc at (401) 435-2351.

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 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 From Environmental Health Risks

    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

    We have analyzed this rule 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 concluded 
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 is categorically excluded, under figure 2-1, paragraph 
(34)(g) of the Instruction. This rule fits the category selected from 
paragraph (34)(g), as it establishes temporary security zones for a 
limited period of time. An environmental analysis checklist and a 
categorical exclusion determination will be 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.
