Notice of temporary deviation from drawbridge regulation. AGENCY: ACTION: The Coast Guard has issued a temporary deviation from the operating schedule that governs the San Joaquin County (Bacon Island Road) highway bridge across Middle River, mile 8.6, at between Bacon Island and Lower Jones Tract, California. The deviation is necessary to allow the bridge owner to make emergency mechanical and electrical repairs. This deviation allows the bridge to be secured in the closedto-navigation position during the deviation period. sradovich on DSK3TPTVN1PROD with RULES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:33 Jun 13, 2016 Jkt 238001 This deviation is effective without actual notice from June 14, 2016 until 11:59 p.m. on July 1, 2016.

Sulouff, Chief, Bridge Section, Eleventh Coast Guard District; telephone 510– 437–3516, email David.H.Sulouff@ uscg.mil. DATES: San Joaquin County Department of Public Works has requested a temporary change to the operation of the San Joaquin County (Bacon Island Road) highway drawbridge, mile 8.6, over Middle River, between Bacon Island and Lower Jones Tract, California. The drawbridge navigation span provides approximately 8 feet vertical clearance above Mean High Water in the closedto-navigation position. The draw operates as required by 33 CFR 117.171(a). Navigation on the waterway is commercial and recreational. The drawspan operating machinery failed unexpectedly on May 28, 2016 and the drawspan will remain secured in the closed-to-navigation position until 11:59 p.m. on July 1, 2016, to allow the bridge owner to make emergency repairs. This temporary deviation has been coordinated with the waterway users. No objections to the proposed temporary deviation were raised. Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed position may do so at anytime. The bridge will not be able to open for emergencies. Old River can be used as an alternate route for vessels unable to pass through the bridge in the closed position. The Coast Guard has also informed waterway users through our Local and Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the change in operating schedule for the bridge so that vessel operators can arrange their transits to minimize any impact caused by the temporary deviation. In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridge must return to its regular operating schedule immediately at the end of the effective period of this temporary deviation. This deviation from the operating regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 38595 Dated: June 8, 2016. D.H.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ADDRESSES: I. Table of Abbreviations 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 E:\FR\FM\14JNR1.SGM 14JNR1 38596 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 114 / Tuesday, June 14, 2016 / Rules and Regulations II. Background Information and Regulatory History IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule The Captain of the Port (COTP) Ohio Valley is establishing, amending, and updating its current list of recurring safety zones codified in Table 1 of 33 CFR 165.801, for the COTP Ohio Valley zone. On March 7, 2016, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) entitled, ‘‘Sector Ohio Valley Annual and Recurring Safety Zones Update’’ (81 FR 11706). The public comment period ended on June 6, 2016. Before the comment period closed, the Coast Guard received information regarding two of the events. For the event listed in Table 1, Line 21, the event sponsor provided a new location and for the event listed in Table 1, Line 56, the event sponsor requested that for 2016 the event be held on July 1 instead of July 4. See Section IV. for more information on these two events. 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. Though we are not providing a full 30 day notice period, the Coast Guard is now providing less than 30 days notice before the first recurring event enforcement is required on July 2. It is impracticable to provide a full 30-days notice because this rule must be effective July 2, 2016. As noted above, we received information correcting the location for one recurring event and a date change for another from the event sponsors during the NPRM comment period. Therefore for 2016, we will be issuing a temporary final rule under Docket number 2016–0502 to establish a safety zone for the Riverfront Independence Festival Fireworks event, listed in Table 1, Line 21. The temporary final rule will be issued because for 2016, the event sponsor requested to change the location of the event from Ohio River, Mile 602.0–603.5 (Indiana) to Ohio River, Mile 607.5–608.6 (Indiana). If the event sponsor decides to continue to hold the event annually at the new location, the Coast Guard will publish an NPRM in the Federal Register to permanently change the event location. In addition for 2016, we will be issuing a temporary final rule under Docket number 2016–0279 to establish a safety zone for the Kindred Communications/Dawg Dazzle event, listed in Table 1, Line 56. The temporary final rule will reflect that for 2016 the event will be held on July 1 instead of July 4, which is the date listed in this final rule. If the event sponsor decides to continue to hold the event annually on July 1, the Coast Guard will publish an NPRM in the Federal Register to permanently change the event date. All other proposed amendments will be adopted without change from the NPRM. sradovich on DSK3TPTVN1PROD with RULES III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule The Coast Guard’s authority for establishing a safety zone is contained at 33 U.S.C. 1231. The Coast Guard is amending and updating the safety zones under 33 CFR part 165 to include the most up to date list of recurring safety zones for events held on or around navigable waters within the Sector Ohio Valley AOR. These events include fireworks displays, air shows, and others. The current list in Table 1 of 33 CFR 165.801 requires amending to provide new information on existing safety zones, include new safety zones expected to recur annually or biannually, 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 zone creates unnecessary administrative costs and burdens. This rulemaking reduces administrative overhead and provides the public with notice through publication in the Federal Register of the upcoming recurring safety zones. VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:33 Jun 13, 2016 Jkt 238001 V. Regulatory Analyses We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and Executive orders 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. PO 00000 Frm 00028 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this rule to be minimal, and therefore a full regulatory evaluation is unnecessary. This rule establishes safety zones limiting access to certain areas under 33 CFR 165 within Sector Ohio Valley’s AOR. The effect of this 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 around the safety zones in advance. Deviation from the safety zones established through this proposed rulemaking may be requested from the appropriate COTP and requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Broadcast Notices to Mariners and Local Notices to Mariners will also inform the community of these safety zones so that they may plan accordingly for these short restrictions on transit. Vessel traffic may request permission from the COTP Ohio Valley or a designated representative to enter the restricted areas. 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 received 0 comments from the Small Business Administration on this rulemaking. 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 will affect the following entities, some of which may be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the safety zone areas during periods of enforcement. The safety zones will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities because they are limited in scope and will be in effect for short periods of time. Before the enforcement period, the Coast Guard COTP will issue maritime advisories widely available to waterway users. Deviation from the safety zones established through this rulemaking may be requested from the appropriate COTP and requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement E:\FR\FM\14JNR1.SGM 14JNR1 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 114 / Tuesday, June 14, 2016 / Rules and Regulations Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub.L.104–121), we want to assist small entities in understanding this 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. Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and rates each agency’s responsiveness to small business. If you wish to comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1– 888–REG–FAIR (1–888–734–3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard. C. Collection of Information This rule will 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 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 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. If you believe this 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 rule will not result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in this preamble. F. 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 38597 Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and have determined 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 is categorically excluded under section 2.B.2, figure 2–1, paragraph (34(g)) of the Instruction because it involves establishment of safety zones. 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.

Safety Zones; Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley Annual and Recurring
Safety Zones Update

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is amending and updating its safety zones
relating to recurring fireworks shows and other events that take place
in the Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley area of responsibility (AOR).
This rule informs the public of regularly scheduled events that require
additional safety measures through the establishing of a safety zone.
Through this rulemaking the current list of recurring safety zones is
updated with revisions, additional events, and removal of events that
no longer take place in Sector Ohio Valley's AOR. When these safety
zones are enforced, certain restrictions are placed on marine traffic
in specified areas.

DATES: This rule is effective June 14, 2016.

Sec. Section
U.S.C. United States Code

[[Page 38596]]

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

The Captain of the Port (COTP) Ohio Valley is establishing,
amending, and updating its current list of recurring safety zones
codified in Table 1 of 33 CFR 165.801, for the COTP Ohio Valley zone.
On March 7, 2016, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) entitled, ``Sector Ohio Valley Annual and Recurring
Safety Zones Update'' (81 FR 11706). The public comment period ended on
June 6, 2016. Before the comment period closed, the Coast Guard
received information regarding two of the events. For the event listed
in Table 1, Line 21, the event sponsor provided a new location and for
the event listed in Table 1, Line 56, the event sponsor requested that
for 2016 the event be held on July 1 instead of July 4. See Section IV.
for more information on these two events.
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. Though we are not
providing a full 30 day notice period, the Coast Guard is now providing
less than 30 days notice before the first recurring event enforcement
is required on July 2. It is impracticable to provide a full 30-days
notice because this rule must be effective July 2, 2016.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

The Coast Guard's authority for establishing a safety zone is
contained at 33 U.S.C. 1231. The Coast Guard is amending and updating
the safety zones under 33 CFR part 165 to include the most up to date
list of recurring safety zones for events held on or around navigable
waters within the Sector Ohio Valley AOR. These events include
fireworks displays, air shows, and others. The current list in Table 1
of 33 CFR 165.801 requires amending to provide new information on
existing safety zones, include new safety zones expected to recur
annually or biannually, 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 zone creates unnecessary
administrative costs and burdens. This rulemaking reduces
administrative overhead and provides the public with notice through
publication in the Federal Register of the upcoming recurring safety
zones.

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule

As noted above, we received information correcting the location for
one recurring event and a date change for another from the event
sponsors during the NPRM comment period. Therefore for 2016, we will be
issuing a temporary final rule under Docket number 2016-0502 to
establish a safety zone for the Riverfront Independence Festival
Fireworks event, listed in Table 1, Line 21. The temporary final rule
will be issued because for 2016, the event sponsor requested to change
the location of the event from Ohio River, Mile 602.0-603.5 (Indiana)
to Ohio River, Mile 607.5-608.6 (Indiana). If the event sponsor decides
to continue to hold the event annually at the new location, the Coast
Guard will publish an NPRM in the Federal Register to permanently
change the event location.
In addition for 2016, we will be issuing a temporary final rule
under Docket number 2016-0279 to establish a safety zone for the
Kindred Communications/Dawg Dazzle event, listed in Table 1, Line 56.
The temporary final rule will reflect that for 2016 the event will be
held on July 1 instead of July 4, which is the date listed in this
final rule. If the event sponsor decides to continue to hold the event
annually on July 1, the Coast Guard will publish an NPRM in the Federal
Register to permanently change the event date.
All other proposed amendments will be adopted without change from
the NPRM.

V. Regulatory Analyses

We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
Executive orders 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.
The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this rule to be
minimal, and therefore a full regulatory evaluation is unnecessary.
This rule establishes safety zones limiting access to certain areas
under 33 CFR 165 within Sector Ohio Valley's AOR. The effect of this
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
around the safety zones in advance. Deviation from the safety zones
established through this proposed rulemaking may be requested from the
appropriate COTP and requests will be considered on a case-by-case
basis. Broadcast Notices to Mariners and Local Notices to Mariners will
also inform the community of these safety zones so that they may plan
accordingly for these short restrictions on transit. Vessel traffic may
request permission from the COTP Ohio Valley or a designated
representative to enter the restricted areas.

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 received 0 comments from the Small Business
Administration on this rulemaking. 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 will affect the following entities, some of which may be
small entities: The owners or operators of vessels intending to transit
the safety zone areas during periods of enforcement. The safety zones
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities because they are limited in scope and will be in effect
for short periods of time. Before the enforcement period, the Coast
Guard COTP will issue maritime advisories widely available to waterway
users. Deviation from the safety zones established through this
rulemaking may be requested from the appropriate COTP and requests will
be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement

[[Page 38597]]

Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub.L.104-121), we want to assist small entities
in understanding this 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.
Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or
action of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

This rule will 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 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 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. If
you believe this 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 rule will not result in
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.

F. 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 (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have determined 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 is categorically excluded under section 2.B.2, figure 2-
1, paragraph (34(g)) of the Instruction because it involves
establishment of safety zones.

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.
