It, therefore: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under Department of Transportation (DOT) Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Environmental Review The FAA has determined that this action of modifying five VOR Federal airways qualifies for categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act and its implementing regulations at 40 CFR part 1500, and in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures, Paragraph 5– 6.5a, which categorically excludes from further environmental impact review rulemaking actions that designate or modify classes of airspace areas, airways, routes, and reporting points (see 14 CFR part 71, Designation of Class A, B, C, D, and E Airspace Areas; Air Traffic Service Routes; and Reporting Points). As such, this action is not expected to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts. In accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:29 Jun 20, 2017 Jkt 241001 paragraph 5–2 regarding Extraordinary Circumstances, The FAA has reviewed this action for factors and circumstances in which a normally categorically excluded action may have a significant environmental impact requiring further analysis. The FAA determined that no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment or environmental impact study.

This regulation informs the public of regularly scheduled events that require SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:44 Jun 20, 2017 Jkt 241001 additional safety measures through establishing a safety zone. Through this final rule the current list of recurring safety zones is updated with revisions, additional events, and removal of events that no longer take place in the COTP Zone. When these safety zones are enforced, vessel traffic is restricted from specified areas. Additionally, this rulemaking project serves to provide notice of the known recurring safety zones throughout the year. DATES: This rule is effective July 6, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Table of Abbreviations CFR Code of Federal Regulations COTP Captain of the Port Upper Mississippi River DHS Department of Homeland Security FR Federal Register NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking § Section U.S.C. United States Code II. Background Information and Regulatory History The Coast Guard preceded this final rule with a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) with request for comments. The NPRM was published in the Federal Register on May 8, 2017, (82 FR 21339). The NPRM updated 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 COTP Zone. During the comment period that ended June 7, 2017, we received no comments. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for making this rule effective less than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. Delaying the effective date of the rule is unnecessary, impracticable and against public interest. To wait for the rule to become effective after the publication is impracticable and against public interest because the Coast Guard would be prevented from enforcing the safety zones this rule is meant to enforce, which would prevent the Coast PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 28235 Guard from providing safety to the public and property, and jeopardize public interests. It is also unnecessary to wait for 30 days because the public had been provided plenty of opportunity to comment on these safety zones, but provided no comments or disagreements. 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 (COTP) Upper Mississippi River has determined that potential hazards associated with the recurring events will cause safety concerns. The purpose of this rule is to ensure safety of vessels and the navigable waters in the safety zones, before, during, and after the scheduled events. IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule As noted above, during the comment period for our NPRM that published May 8, 2017, no comments were received. There are no changes in the regulatory text of this rule from the proposed rule in the NPRM. This rule establishes recurring safety zones to restrict vessel transit into and through specified areas to protect spectators, mariners, and other persons and property from potential hazards presented during certain events taking place in Sector Upper Mississippi River’s COTP Zone. This final rule amends, updates, and replaces Table 2 in 33 CFR 165.801. No vessel or person will be permitted to enter the safety zones without first obtaining permission from the COTP or a designated representative. 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 E:\FR\FM\21JNR1.SGM 21JNR1
