Temporary final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary safety zone on
the Erie Canal System, Fish Creek,
Sylvan Beach, NY. This safety zone is
intended to restrict vessels from
portions of the Erie Canal System at
Fish Creek during the Canal Fest Water
Ski Show on August 13, 2017. This
temporary safety zone is necessary to
protect mariners and vessels from the
navigational hazards associated with
high speed craft and water skiers. Entry
of vessels or persons into this zone is
prohibited unless specifically
authorized by the Captain of the Port
Buffalo.

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code

II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
On April 9, 2017, the Sylvan Verona
Beach Resort Association notified the
Coast Guard that from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30
p.m. on August 13, 2017, it will be
conducting a water ski show in the Erie
Canal System at Fish Creek in Sylvan
Beach, NY. In response, on June 9, 2017,
the Coast Guard published a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) titled
Safety Zone; Canal Fest Water Ski
Show; Erie Canal System, Fish Creek,
Sylvan Beach, NY. There we stated why
we issued the NPRM, and invited
comments on our proposed regulatory
action related to this water ski show.
During the comment period that ended
July 10, 2017, we received 0 comments.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this temporary rule effective less
than 30 days after publication in the
Federal Register because doing so
would be impracticable and contrary to
the public interest. Delaying the
effective date would be contrary to the
rule’s objectives of ensuring safety of
life on the navigable waters and
protection of persons and vessels near
the water ski show.
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 Buffalo (COTP) has
determined that a water ski show
presents significant risks to public
safety and property. Such hazards
include high speed craft and multiple
water skiers performing in a relatively
small area. This rule is needed to
protect personnel, vessels, and the
marine environment in the navigable
waters within the safety zone while the
water ski show is taking place.

Jkt 241001
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a safety zone on
August 13, 2017 12:15 p.m. to 2:45 p.m.
The safety zone will encompass all
waters of the Erie Canal System, Fish
Creek, Sylvan Beach, NY contained
within the following points:
43°11′37.79″ N., 075°43′53.27″ W.,
running Northeast to position
43°11′43.15″ N., 075°43′44.88″ W., then
Southeast to 43°11′42.82″ N.,
075°43′43.42″ W. then Southwest to
43°11′36.90″ N., 075°43′52.06″ W. then
returning to the point of origin (NAD83).
Entry into, transiting, or anchoring
within the safety zone is prohibited
unless authorized by the Captain of the
Port Buffalo or his designated on-scene
representative. The Captain of the Port
or his designated on-scene
representative may be contacted via
VHF Channel 16.
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. Executive Order 13771
(‘‘Reducing Regulation and Controlling
Regulatory Costs’’), directs agencies to
reduce regulation and control regulatory
costs and provides that ‘‘for every one
new regulation issued, at least two prior
regulations be identified for elimination,
and that the cost of planned regulations
be prudently managed and controlled
through a budgeting process.’’
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.
As this rule is not a significant
regulatory action, this rule is exempt
from the requirements of Executive
Order 13771. See OMB’s Memorandum
titled ‘‘Interim Guidance Implementing
Section 2 of the Executive Order of
January 30, 2017 titled ‘Reducing
Regulation and Controlling Regulatory
Costs’ ’’ (February 2, 2017).
We conclude that this rule is not a
significant regulatory action because we
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
anticipate that it will have minimal
impact on the economy, will not
interfere with other agencies, will not
adversely alter the budget of any grant
or loan recipients, and will not raise any
novel legal or policy issues. The safety
zone created by this rule will be
relatively small and enforced for a short
duration of time. Also, the safety zone
is designed to minimize its impact on
navigable waters. Thus, restrictions on
vessel movement within the particular
areas are expected to be minimal. Under
certain conditions, moreover, vessels
may still transit through the safety zone
when permitted by the Captain of the
Port.
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 rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
While some owners or operators of
vessels intending to transit the safety
zone may be small entities, for the
reasons stated in section V.A above, this
rule will not have a significant
economic impact on any vessel owner
or operator.
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 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

24JYR1
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 140 / Monday, July 24, 2017 / Rules and Regulations
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
above.

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 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 it is one of a category
of actions that do not individually or
cumulatively have a significant effect on
the human environment. This rule
VerDate Sep<11>2014

establishes a temporary safety zone. It is
categorically excluded under section
2.B.2, figure 2–1, paragraph 34(g) of the
Instruction, which pertains to
establishment of safety zones. A Record
of Environmental Consideration (REC)
supporting this determination is
available in the docket where indicated
in the ADDRESSES section of this
preamble.
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.

II. Background Information and Regulatory History
On April 9, 2017, the Sylvan Verona Beach Resort Association
notified the Coast Guard that from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. on August
13, 2017, it will be conducting a water ski show in the Erie Canal
System at Fish Creek in Sylvan Beach, NY. In response, on June 9, 2017,
the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) titled
Safety Zone; Canal Fest Water Ski Show; Erie Canal System, Fish Creek,
Sylvan Beach, NY. There we stated why we issued the NPRM, and invited
comments on our proposed regulatory action related to this water ski
show. During the comment period that ended July 10, 2017, we received 0
comments.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that good cause

water ski show presents significant risks to public safety and
property. Such hazards include high speed craft and multiple water
skiers performing in a relatively small area. This rule is needed to

Southeast to 43[deg]11'42.82'' N., 075[deg]43'43.42'' W. then Southwest
to 43[deg]11'36.90'' N., 075[deg]43'52.06'' W. then returning to the
point of origin (NAD83).
Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the safety zone is
prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Buffalo or his
designated on-scene representative. The Captain of the Port or his
designated on-scene representative may be contacted via VHF Channel 16.
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. Executive Order 13771 (``Reducing
Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs''), directs agencies to
reduce regulation and control regulatory costs and provides that ``for
every one new regulation issued, at least two prior regulations be
identified for elimination, and that the cost of planned regulations be
prudently managed and controlled through a budgeting process.''
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.
As this rule is not a significant regulatory action, this rule is
exempt from the requirements of Executive Order 13771. See OMB's
Memorandum titled ``Interim Guidance Implementing Section 2 of the
Executive Order of January 30, 2017 titled `Reducing Regulation and
Controlling Regulatory Costs' '' (February 2, 2017).
We conclude that this rule is not a significant regulatory action
because we anticipate that it will have minimal impact on the economy,
will not interfere with other agencies, will not adversely alter the
budget of any grant or loan recipients, and will not raise any novel
legal or policy issues. The safety zone created by this rule will be
relatively small and enforced for a short duration of time. Also, the
safety zone is designed to minimize its impact on navigable waters.
Thus, restrictions on vessel movement within the particular areas are
expected to be minimal. Under certain conditions, moreover, vessels may
still transit through the safety zone when permitted by the Captain of
the Port.
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 rule
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities.
While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the
safety zone may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section
V.A above, this rule will not have a significant economic impact on any
vessel owner or operator.
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 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
[[Page 34263]]
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 above.
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 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 it
is one of a category of actions that do not individually or
cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. This
rule establishes a temporary safety zone. It is categorically excluded
under section 2.B.2, figure 2-1, paragraph 34(g) of the Instruction,
which pertains to establishment of safety zones. A Record of
Environmental Consideration (REC) supporting this determination is
available in the docket where indicated in the ADDRESSES section of
this preamble.
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.
