Description of the Proposed Amendment By letter dated November 17, 2015 (Administrative Record No. TX–705), Texas sent us an amendment to its program under SMCRA (30 U.S.C. 1201 et seq.) at its own initiative. Below is a summary of the changes proposed by Texas. The full text of the program amendment is available for you to read at the locations listed above under ADDRESSES. Texas proposes to revise its regulation at 16 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) section 12.108(b) regarding annual permit fees by: (1) Removing paragraph (b)(1), regarding fees for each acre of land within the permit area on which coal or lignite was actually removed during the calendar year; (2) Increasing the amount of the fee, from $12.00 to $13.05, for each acre of land within a permit area covered by a reclamation bond on December 31st of the year; and (3) Increasing the amount of the fee, from $6,540 to $6,600, for each permit in effect on December 31st of the year. Texas fully funds its share of costs to regulate the coal mining industry with fees paid by the coal industry. Texas charges three fees to meet these costs, a permit application fee and two annual fees as mentioned above. The proposed fee revisions are intended to provide adequate funding to pay the State’s cost of operating its regulatory program, and provide incentives for industry to accomplish reclamation and achieve bond release as quickly as possible. III. Public Comment Procedures Under the provisions of 30 CFR 732.17(h), we are seeking your comments on whether the amendment satisfies the applicable program approval criteria of 30 CFR 732.15.

AGENCY: ACTION: E:\FR\FM\08APP1.SGM 08APP1 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 68 / Friday, April 8, 2016 / Proposed Rules The Coast Guard proposes to amend and update its annual and recurring safety zones that take place in the Coast Guard Sector Upper Mississippi River area of responsibility (AOR). This document informs the public of regularly scheduled events that require additional safety measures through establishing a safety zone. This document also proposes to update the current list of recurring safety zones with revisions, additional events, and removal of events that no longer take place in Sector Upper Mississippi River’s AOR. Additionally, this one proposed rulemaking project reduces administrative costs involved in producing separate proposed rules for each individual recurring safety zone and serves to provide notice of the known recurring safety zones throughout the year. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking. DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast Guard on or before May 9, 2016. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG– 2015–1079 using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at https:// www.regulations.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: I. Table of Abbreviations AOR Area of Responsibility CFR Code of Federal Regulations DHS Department of Homeland Security FR Federal Register NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking § Section U.S.C. United States Code II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis The Captain of the Port (COTP) Upper Mississippi River is proposing to amend and update its current list of recurring safety zones. The current list of annual and recurring safety zones occurring in Sector Upper Mississippi River’s AOR is published under 33 CFR part 165.801, Table 2. This current list was established through a rulemaking process providing for comment and public participation. No adverse comments were received, resulting in the final rulemaking 80 FR 49911, which was published August 18, 2015. The final rulemaking amended 33 CFR 165.801 to establish the current list of recurring safety zones. This rulemaking proposes to add to, amend, and update the list of annually recurring safety zones under Table 2 in 33 CFR 165.801 for annual and recurring safety zones in the COTP Upper Mississippi zone. The Coast Guard is amending and updating the annual and recurring safety zone regulations under 33 CFR part 165 to include the most up to date list of annual and recurring safety zones for events held on or around navigable waters within Sector Upper Mississippi River’s AOR. These events include fireworks displays, air shows, festival events, and other recurring marine Sponsor/name 1 day—Weekend before Thanksgiving .. Main Street Parkway Association/Parkville Christmas on the River. St. Louis Drag Boat Association/New Athens Drag Boat Race. City of Marquette/Marquette Independence Day Celebration. 2 days—A weekend in September ........ asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS 1 day—4th of July weekend ................... related safety needs. The current list under 33 CFR 165.801 requires amending to provide new information on existing safety zones, updating to include new safety zones expected to recur annually, and to remove safety zones that are no longer required. Issuing individual regulations for each new safety zone, amendment, or removal of an existing safety zones creates unnecessary administrative costs and burdens. This single proposed rulemaking will considerably reduce administrative overhead and provide the public with notice through publication in the Federal Register of the upcoming annual and recurring safety zones. The Coast Guard proposes this rulemaking under the authority in 33 U.S.C. 1221. III. Discussion of Proposed Rule 33 CFR part 165 contains regulations establishing limited access areas on U.S. navigable waters. Section 165.801 lists the established recurring safety zones taking place in the Eighth Coast Guard District separated into tables for each of the seven sectors within the Eighth District. Table 2 lists the recurring safety zones for Sector Upper Mississippi River. This section, and table, requires amendment from time to time to properly reflect the recurring safety zones in Sector Upper Mississippi River’s AOR. This proposed rule amends and updates Section 165.801 replacing the current Table 2 for Sector Upper Mississippi River. Additionally, this proposed rule adds 3 new, modifies 7, and removes 14 recurring safety zones as listed below. This proposed rule adds 3 new safety zones to Table 2 in § 165.801 as follows: Sector Upper Mississippi River location Date 20593 Parkville, MO ........ New Athens, IL ..... Marquette, IA ........

Below we summarize our analyses based on a number of these statutes and E:\FR\FM\08APP1.SGM 08APP1 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 68 / Friday, April 8, 2016 / Proposed Rules Executive Orders and we discuss First Amendment rights of protestors. asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS A. Regulatory Planning and Review Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess the costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits. Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. This NPRM has not been designated a ‘‘significant regulatory action,’’ under Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, the NPRM has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget. The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this proposed rule to be minimal, and therefore a full regulatory evaluation is unnecessary. This proposed rule establishes safety zones limiting access to certain areas under 33 CFR part 165 within Sector Upper Mississippi River’s AOR. The effect of this proposed rulemaking will not be significant because these safety zones are limited in scope and duration. Additionally, the public is given advance notification through local forms of notice, the Federal Register, and/or Notices of Enforcement and thus will be able to plan operations around the safety zones in advance. Deviation from the safety zones established through this proposed rulemaking may be requested from the COTP Upper Mississippi River or a designated representative and requests will be considered on a caseby-case basis. B. 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 proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit these safety zones may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section IV.A. above, this proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on any vessel owner or operator. If you think that your business, organization, or governmental VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:31 Apr 07, 2016 Jkt 238001 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. 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 proposed 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 section. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard. C. Collection of Information This proposed rule would not call for a new collection of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520). D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Governments 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 proposed rule under that Order and have determined that it is consistent with the fundamental federalism principles and preemption requirements described in Executive Order 13132. Also, this proposed rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments, because it would 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. If you believe this proposed rule has implications for federalism or Indian tribes, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. E. 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 PO 00000 Frm 00021 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 20595 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 proposed rule would not result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in this preamble. F. Environment We have analyzed this proposed 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 (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and have made a preliminary determination 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 proposed rule involves rules establishes safety zones limiting access to certain areas under 33 CFR 165 within Sector Upper Mississippi River’s AOR. Normally such actions are categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 34(h) of Figure 2–1 of Commandant Instruction M16475.lD. A preliminary environmental analysis checklist and 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 proposed rule. G. 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. V. Public Participation and Request for Comments We view public participation as essential to effective rulemaking, and will consider all comments and material received during the comment period. Your comment can help shape the outcome of this rulemaking. If you submit a comment, please include the docket number for this rulemaking, indicate the specific section of this document to which each comment applies, and provide a reason for each suggestion or recommendation. We encourage you to submit comments through the Federal eRulemaking Portal at https:// E:\FR\FM\08APP1.SGM 08APP1 20596 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 68 / Friday, April 8, 2016 / Proposed Rules www.regulations.gov.

33 CFR Part 165

[Docket Number USCG-2015-1079]
RIN 1625-AA00

Safety Zones; Sector Upper Mississippi River Annual and Recurring
Safety Zones Update

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

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

[[Page 20593]]

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to amend and update its annual and
recurring safety zones that take place in the Coast Guard Sector Upper
Mississippi River area of responsibility (AOR). This document informs
the public of regularly scheduled events that require additional safety
measures through establishing a safety zone. This document also
proposes to update the current list of recurring safety zones with
revisions, additional events, and removal of events that no longer take
place in Sector Upper Mississippi River's AOR. Additionally, this one
proposed rulemaking project reduces administrative costs involved in
producing separate proposed rules for each individual recurring safety
zone and serves to provide notice of the known recurring safety zones
throughout the year. We invite your comments on this proposed
rulemaking.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast
Guard on or before May 9, 2016.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2015-1079 using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at https://www.regulations.gov. See the ``Public Participation and Request for
Comments'' portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further
instructions on submitting comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this
proposed rulemaking, call or email LCDR Sean Peterson, Chief of
Prevention, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone 314-269-2332, email
Sean.M.Peterson@uscg.mil.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Table of Abbreviations

AOR Area of Responsibility
CFR Code of Federal Regulations
DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec. Section
U.S.C. United States Code

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

The Captain of the Port (COTP) Upper Mississippi River is proposing
to amend and update its current list of recurring safety zones.
The current list of annual and recurring safety zones occurring in
Sector Upper Mississippi River's AOR is published under 33 CFR part
165.801, Table 2. This current list was established through a
rulemaking process providing for comment and public participation. No
adverse comments were received, resulting in the final rulemaking 80 FR
49911, which was published August 18, 2015. The final rulemaking
amended 33 CFR 165.801 to establish the current list of recurring
safety zones.
This rulemaking proposes to add to, amend, and update the list of
annually recurring safety zones under Table 2 in 33 CFR 165.801 for
annual and recurring safety zones in the COTP Upper Mississippi zone.
The Coast Guard is amending and updating the annual and recurring
safety zone regulations under 33 CFR part 165 to include the most up to
date list of annual and recurring safety zones for events held on or
around navigable waters within Sector Upper Mississippi River's AOR.
These events include fireworks displays, air shows, festival events,
and other recurring marine related safety needs. The current list under
33 CFR 165.801 requires amending to provide new information on existing
safety zones, updating to include new safety zones expected to recur
annually, and to remove safety zones that are no longer required.
Issuing individual regulations for each new safety zone, amendment, or
removal of an existing safety zones creates unnecessary administrative
costs and burdens. This single proposed rulemaking will considerably
reduce administrative overhead and provide the public with notice
through publication in the Federal Register of the upcoming annual and
recurring safety zones. The Coast Guard proposes this rulemaking under
the authority in 33 U.S.C. 1221.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

33 CFR part 165 contains regulations establishing limited access
areas on U.S. navigable waters. Section 165.801 lists the established
recurring safety zones taking place in the Eighth Coast Guard District
separated into tables for each of the seven sectors within the Eighth
District. Table 2 lists the recurring safety zones for Sector Upper
Mississippi River. This section, and table, requires amendment from
time to time to properly reflect the recurring safety zones in Sector
Upper Mississippi River's AOR. This proposed rule amends and updates
Section 165.801 replacing the current Table 2 for Sector Upper
Mississippi River.
Additionally, this proposed rule adds 3 new, modifies 7, and
removes 14 recurring safety zones as listed below.
This proposed rule adds 3 new safety zones to Table 2 in Sec.
165.801 as follows:

This proposed rule modifies the following 7 safety zones currently
listed in Table 2 in Sec. 165.801 as follows:

The effect of this proposed rule will be to restrict general
navigation in the safety zone during the event. Vessels will experience
limited access on the waterway when the safety zones are in effect.
Requests to transit into, through, or within a safety zone will be
considered and will be allowed only when deemed safe by the COTP Upper
Mississippi River, or designated representative.

IV. Regulatory Analyses

We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes
and Executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our
analyses based on a number of these statutes and

[[Page 20595]]

Executive Orders and we discuss First Amendment rights of protestors.

A. Regulatory Planning and Review

Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess the
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits. Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of
quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing
rules, and of promoting flexibility. This NPRM has not been designated
a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order 12866.
Accordingly, the NPRM has not been reviewed by the Office of Management
and Budget.
The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this proposed rule
to be minimal, and therefore a full regulatory evaluation is
unnecessary. This proposed rule establishes safety zones limiting
access to certain areas under 33 CFR part 165 within Sector Upper
Mississippi River's AOR. The effect of this proposed rulemaking will
not be significant because these safety zones are limited in scope and
duration. Additionally, the public is given advance notification
through local forms of notice, the Federal Register, and/or Notices of
Enforcement and thus will be able to plan operations around the safety
zones in advance. Deviation from the safety zones established through
this proposed rulemaking may be requested from the COTP Upper
Mississippi River or a designated representative and requests will be
considered on a case-by-case basis.

B. 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
proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit
these safety zones may be small entities, for the reasons stated in
section IV.A. above, this proposed rule would not have a significant
economic impact on any vessel owner or operator.
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.
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 proposed 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
section. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that
question or complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action
of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

This proposed rule would not call for a new collection of
information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-
3520).

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Governments

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 proposed rule under that Order and
have determined that it is consistent with the fundamental federalism
principles and preemption requirements described in Executive Order
13132.
Also, this proposed rule does not have tribal implications under
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it would 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. If
you believe this proposed rule has implications for federalism or
Indian tribes, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.

E. 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 proposed rule would not
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.

F. Environment

We have analyzed this proposed 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 (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have made
a preliminary determination 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 proposed rule involves rules
establishes safety zones limiting access to certain areas under 33 CFR
165 within Sector Upper Mississippi River's AOR. Normally such actions
are categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 34(h) of
Figure 2-1 of Commandant Instruction M16475.lD. A preliminary
environmental analysis checklist and 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 proposed
rule.

G. 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.

V. Public Participation and Request for Comments
