CFR Code of Federal Regulations

FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
The Coast Guard is issuing this
temporary 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
NPRM with respect to this rule because
it would be impractical and contrary to
the public interest. The event sponsor
was late in submitting the marine event
application. This late submission did
not give the Coast Guard enough time to
publish an NPRM and receive
comments, making that impracticable
and contrary to the public interest in
immediate action to ensure the safety of
the event participants, patrol vessels,
spectator craft and other vessels
transiting the event area.
For the same reasons, we are issuing
this rule, and under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3),
the Coast Guard finds that good cause
exists for making it effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal
Register.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 33 U.S.C. 1231. The
Captain of the Port New York (COTP)
PO 00000
Frm 00033
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700

has determined that potential hazards
associated with swim events occurring
in high traffic areas of the Upper New
York Harbor on July 16, 2016 will be a
safety concern for anyone within a 100yard radius of swimmers. This rule is
needed to protect maritime public and
event participants from the hazards
associated with the swim event until the
conclusion of the event.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a safety zone
from at 7:00 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. on July
16, 2016. The safety zone will cover all
navigable waters within 100 yards of
participating swimmers for the Lady
Liberty Sharkfest Swim. The duration of
the zone is intended to protect maritime
public and event participants from the
hazards associated with swim events
taking place in a high vessel traffic area.
No vessel or person will be permitted to
enter the safety zone without obtaining
permission from the COTP or a
designated representative.
V. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this rule after
considering numerous statutes and
Executive order related to rulemaking.
Below we summarize our analyses
based on a number of these statutes and
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 rule has not been
designated a ‘‘significant regulatory
action,’’ under Executive Order 12866.
Accordingly, it has not been reviewed
by the Office of Management and
Budget.
This regulatory action determination
is based on the size, location, duration,
and time-of-year of the safety zone.
Vessel traffic will be able to safely
transit around this safety zone which
will impact a small designated area of
the Upper New York Harbor in vicinity
of Ellis and Liberty Islands for 2.5 hours
and during a time of day when vessel
traffic is normally low. Moreover, the
Coast Guard will issue Broadcast Notice
to Mariners via VHF–FM marine
channel 16 about the zone and the rule
allows vessels to seek permission to
enter the zone.
