Harbors, Marine safety, Navigation

For the reasons discussed in the
preamble, the Coast Guard amends 22
CFR part 165 to read as follows:
PART 165—REGULATED NAVIGATION
AREAS AND LIMITED ACCESS AREAS
1. The authority citation for part 165
continues to read as follows:
■
Authority: 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, and 160.5;
Pub. L. 107–295, 116 Stat. 2064; Department
of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
■
2. Add § 165.843 to read as follows:
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES
§ 165.843 Moving Security Zone; Escorted
Vessels; Lower Mississippi River; New
Orleans, LA.
(a) Definitions. The following
definitions apply to this section:
COTP means Captain of the Port New
Orleans, LA.
Designated representatives means
Coast Guard Patrol Commanders
including Coast Guard coxswains, petty
officers and other officers operating
Coast Guard vessels, and Federal, State,
and local officers designated by or
assisting the COTP, in the enforcement
of the security zone.
Escorted vessel means a vessel, other
than a large U.S. naval vessel as defined
in 33 CFR 165.2015, that is
accompanied by one or more Coast
Guard assets or other Federal, State or
local law enforcement agency assets
clearly identifiable by flashing lights,
vessel markings, or with agency insignia
as follows: Coast Guard surface or air

Jkt 238001
asset displaying the Coast Guard
insignia. State and/or local law
enforcement asset displaying the
applicable agency markings and/or
equipment associated with the agency.
Minimum safe speed for navigation
means the speed at which a vessel
proceeds when it is fully off plane,
completely settled in the water and not
creating excessive wake or surge. Due to
the different speeds at which vessels of
different sizes and configurations may
travel while in compliance with this
definition, no specific speed is assigned
to a minimum safe speed for navigation.
In no instance should minimum safe
speed be interpreted as a speed less than
that required for a particular vessel to
maintain steerageway. A vessel is not
proceeding at minimum safe speed if it
is:
(i) On a plane;
(ii) In the process of coming up, onto
or coming off a plane; or
(iii) Creating an excessive wake or
surge.
(b) Regulated area. All navigable
waters, as defined in 33 CFR 2.36, on
the Lower Mississippi River between
river miles 90.0 to 106.0 Above Head of
Passes (AHP), New Orleans, Louisiana.
(c) Security zone. A temporary
moving security zone, extending 300
yards in all directions of an escorted
vessel, will be established around each
escorted vessel within the regulated area
described in paragraph (b) of this
section. The security zone will not
extend beyond the boundary of the
regulated area in this section.
(d) Notice of security zone. The COTP
will inform the public of the existence
or status of any temporary moving
security zones around escorted vessels
in the regulated area by broadcast
notices to mariners. The broadcast
notice to mariners will inform the
public of the enforcement period, size of
the zone, and the navigable waters that
will be affected, and will normally be
issued at approximately 30-minute
intervals while the moving security
zone remains in effect. Escorted vessels
will be identified by the presence of
Coast Guard assets or other Federal,
State or local law enforcement agency
assets clearly identified by flashing
lights, vessel markings, or agency
insignia.
(e) Regulations. (1) In accordance with
the general regulations in § 165.33 of
subpart D of this part, no person or
vessel may enter or remain in a security
zone without the permission of the
Captain of the Port. Section 165.33 also
contains other general requirements.
(2) Vessels may request permission
from the Captain of the Port New
Orleans through the on-scene Coast

Guard or other agency asset to enter the
security zone described in paragraph (c)
of this section.
(i) If permission to enter and transit
through the security zone is granted, the
vessel shall operate at the minimum
speed necessary to maintain a safe
course, unless required to maintain
speed by the Navigation Rules, and
must proceed as directed by the COTP
or a designated representative. When
within the security zone, no vessel or
person is allowed within 50 yards of the
escorted vessel unless authorized by the
Coast Guard.
(ii) [Reserved]
(f) Contact information. The COTP
New Orleans may be reached via phone
at (504) 365–2200. Any on-scene Coast
Guard or designated representative
assets may be reached via VHF–FM
channel 16 or 67.
Dated: December 30, 2015.

Proceedings of the Copyright Royalty
Board; Technical Amendment
Copyright Royalty Board,

ACTION: Final rule; technical
amendment.
AGENCY:
The Copyright Royalty Judges
are adopting a technical amendment to
a Copyright Royalty Board rule
regarding participation in distribution
proceedings. The technical amendment
updates the threshold requirement for
payment of a filing fee to conform the
rule to a statutory provision.
DATES: Effective February 22, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
October 6, 2006, Congress enacted the
Copyright Royalty Judges Program
Technical Corrections Act. Public Law
109–303, 120 Stat. 1478 (2006). Among
other things, the Technical Corrections
Act changed Section 803(b)(2)(D)(ii)(II)
of the Copyright Act, which requires
parties that wish to participate in a
Copyright Royalty Board royalty
distribution proceeding to pay a $150

filing fee unless the petitioner includes
a statement with its petition to
participate stating that the petitioner
will not seek a distribution of more than
$1000, in which case no filing fee is
required. Prior to the Technical
Corrections Act, the threshold for a fee
waiver in a distribution proceeding was
$10,000, an amount that was (and still
is) codified in CRB Rule 351.1(b)(4).1
To conform the CRB regulation with
the statutory provision under which it
was adopted, the Judges hereby amend
CRB Rule 351.1(b)(4) to state that the
threshold requirement for a filing fee
waiver is $1000, rather than $10,000.
Because this is a technical amendment,
the Judges find that prior publication for
notice and comment is unnecessary. See
5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). See also 61 FR
63715 (Dec. 2, 1996) (adopting technical
amendments to CARP rules).

that petitioner’s claim will be $1000 or
less, petitioner shall so state in the
petition to participate and should not
include payment of the $150 filing fee.
If it becomes apparent during the course
of the proceedings that the contested
amount of the claim is more than $1000,
the Copyright Royalty Judges will
require payment of the filing fee at such
time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Throughout this document whenever

EPA. This supplementary information
section is arranged as follows:
I. What is the background for this action?
II. What is EPA’s analysis of the SIP revision?
III. What action is EPA taking?
IV. Incorporation by Reference
V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
I. What is the background for this
action?
On June 1, 2015, the Indiana
Department of Environmental
Management (IDEM) submitted a
request for EPA to approve revisions to
PM rules contained in 326 IAC 6.5 and
6.8. The revisions to these rules were
published in the May 28, 2015, edition
of the Indiana Register. On January 14,
2015, IDEM held the first of two public
hearings on revisions to these rules.
IDEM received comments during its
January 14, 2015, public hearing, and
IDEM revised its rules in response to
those comments. IDEM’s second public
hearing was held on March 11, 2015.
IDEM did not receive any comments at
its March 11, 2015, public hearing.
II. What is EPA’s analysis of the SIP
revision?
Below is a discussion of changes to
326 IAC 6.5:
• Sections 4–2, 4–17 and 4–24
Revisions to 326 IAC 6.5–4–2 and 326
IAC 6.5–4–17 consolidate the
identification numbers of the Kimball
Office facilities in Jasper Indiana from
00046 and 00042 to 00100. The revision
to 326 IAC 6.5–4–24 revises the
business name of the regulated source
from Styline Industries, Inc. Plant #8 to
OFS Brands, Inc.—Plant #3. These
administrative revisions provide clarity
to the existing rule and are approvable
into the Indiana SIP.
