DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Army, Corps of
Engineers
33 CFR Part 334
West Arm Behm Canal, Naval Surface
Warfare Center, Ketchikan, Alaska;
Restricted Areas
AGENCY:
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,
DoD.
ACTION:
Final rule.
The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (Corps) is amending existing
regulations for an existing restricted
area near Ketchikan, Alaska to correct
inaccuracies in regards to flashing
beacon light descriptions, point of
contact changes, and restrictive area
distances for small craft.
DATES: Effective date: January 6, 2016.
ADDRESSES: U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers, Attn: CECW–CO (David B.
Olson), 441 G Street NW., Washington,
DC 20314–1000.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
David Olson, Headquarters, Operations
and Regulatory Community of Practice,
Washington, DC at 202–761–4922 or Ms.
Linda Speerstra, U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers, Alaska District, Regulatory
Division, at 907–747–0658.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to its authorities in Section 7 of the
Rivers and Harbors Act of 1917 (40 Stat
266; 33 U.S.C. 1) and Chapter XIX of the
Army Appropriations Act of 1919 (40

jstallworth on DSK7TPTVN1PROD with RULES
Stat 892; 33 U.S.C. 3), the Corps is
amending the regulation at 33 CFR
334.1275 by revising the restricted area
regulation for Area 5 in the waters of the
West Arm Behm Canal, Naval Surface
Warfare Center, Ketchikan, Alaska. This
amendment revises the existing
restricted area regulation to accurately
describe the installed light
configuration, update contact
information, and increase vessel
transiting opportunities.
The proposed rule was published in
the Federal Register on June 22, 2015
(80 FR 35620), and the regulations.gov
docket number is COE–2015–0009. In
response to the proposed rule, one
comment was received. The commenter
recommended that an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) be conducted.
The Corps has determined that an EIS
for this type of action is not necessary
as it is an administrative action and
would not result in environmental
impacts. Therefore, no changes to the
final rule are required.
Procedural Requirements
a. Review Under Executive Order
12866. The rule is issued with respect
to a military function of the Department
of Defense and the provisions of
Executive Order 12866 do not apply.
b. Review Under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act. This rule has been
reviewed under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (Pub. L. 96–354). The
Regulatory Flexibility Act generally
requires an agency to prepare a
regulatory flexibility analysis of any rule
subject to notice-and-comment
rulemaking requirements under the
Administrative Procedure Act or any
other statute unless the agency certifies
that the rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities (i.e., small
businesses and small governments). The
restricted area is necessary to protect
users of this waterway during naval
operations. The restricted area will only
be closed for brief amounts of time
(usually no more than 20 minutes) when
it is activated. The Corps has
determined that the changes to this rule
would have no significant economic
impact on the public. After considering
the economic impacts of this restricted
area regulation on small entities, I
certify that this action will not have a
significant impact on a substantial
number of small entities.
c. Review Under the National
Environmental Policy Act. Due to the
administrative nature of this action and
because there is no intended change in
the use of the area, the Corps has
determined that these amendments to
regulation will not have a significant
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 238001
impact on the quality of the human
environment and, therefore, preparation
of an environmental impact statement is
not required. An environmental
assessment has been prepared and it
may be reviewed at the Alaska district
office.
d. Unfunded Mandates Act. This rule
does not contain a Federal mandate that
may result in expenditures of $100
million or more for State, local, and
Tribal governments, in the aggregate, or
the private sector in any one year.
Therefore, this rule is not subject to the
requirements of Sections 202 and 205 of
the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
(UMRA). The rule contains no
regulatory requirements that might
significantly or uniquely affect small
governments. Therefore, the rule is not
subject to the requirements of Section
203 of UMRA.

For the reasons set out in the
preamble, the Corps amends 33 CFR
part 334 as follows:

1. The authority citation for part 334
continues to read as follows:
■
Authority: 40 Stat. 266 (33 U.S.C. 1) and
40 Stat. 892 (33 U.S.C. 3).
2. In § 334.1275, revise paragraphs

§ 334.1275 West Arm Behm Canal,
Ketchikan, Alaska, restricted areas.

*

(b) * * *
(5) Area No. 5. (i) The area will be
open unless the Navy is actually
conducting operations. To ensure safe
and timely passage through the
restricted area vessel operators are
required to notify the Facility Control
Officer of their expected time of arrival,
speed and intentions. For vessels not
equipped with radio equipment, the
Navy shall signal with flashing beacon
lights whether passage is prohibited and
when it is safe to pass through the area.
A flashing amber beacon means that the
area is closed to all vessels and to await
a clear signal. The flashing amber
beacon not lighted is the clear signal
and indicates that vessels may proceed
through the area. Each closure of the
area by the Navy will normally not
exceed 20 minutes.
(ii) When Area No. 5 restrictions are
in place, vessels may operate within
1000 yards of the shoreline at speeds no
greater than 5 knots in accordance with
the restriction in effect in Area No. 3.
