The City of Huntington Beach and Air
Support LLC notified the Coast Guard
that it will be conducting an annual
four-day Air Show in the vicinity of the
Huntington Beach Pier in September
and October. Hazards associated with
navigation safety may arise due to
multiple low flying aircrafts flight paths
and stunt performances over the waters
off Huntington Beach. The Captain of
the Port Los Angeles-Long Beach has
determined that potential hazards
associated with the Air Show
performance would be a safety concern
for anyone in the vicinity of the Air
Show aerobatic performance area.
The purpose of this rulemaking is to
ensure the safety of persons or vessels
that operate on and in the vicinity of the
aerobatic performance. The Coast Guard
proposes this rulemaking under the
authority of 33 U.S.C. 1231.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule
The COTP proposes to establish a
safety zone that would be enforced for
a period of four days in September and
October each year. The safety zone
would encompass all navigable waters
from the surface to the sea floor
consisting of a line connecting the
following coordinates: 33°38.378′ N.,
117°58.833′ W.; 33°37.972′ N.,
117°59.200′ W.; 33°39.177′ N.,
118°01.121′ W.; and 33°39.583′ N.,
118°00.753′ W.. All coordinates
displayed are referenced by North
American Datum of 1983, World
Geodetic System, 1984. During the
enforcement period, vessels would be
prohibited from entering into, transiting
through, or remaining within the
designated area unless authorized by the
Captain of the Port or her designated
representative. General boating public
would be notified prior to the
enforcement of the safety zone via
Broadcast Notice to Mariners. The
regulatory text we are proposing appears
at the end of this document.
IV. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this proposed rule after
considering numerous statutes and
executive orders (E.O.s) related to
rulemaking. Below we summarize our
analyses based on a number of these
statutes and E.O.s, and we discuss First
Amendment rights of protestors.
A. Regulatory Planning and Review
E.O.s 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 13771,
directs agencies to control regulatory
costs through a budgeting process.’’ 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
(OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance,
it is exempt from the requirements of
E.O. 13771.
This regulatory action determination
is based on the size, location, and
duration of the safety zone. Vessel
traffic would be able to safely transit
around this safety zone, which would
impact a small designated area of the
Huntington Beach shoreline in the
vicinity of the Huntington Beach Pier.
The size of the zone is the minimum
necessary to provide adequate
protection for the waterways users,
adjoining areas, and the public. Any
hardships experienced by persons or
vessels are considered minimal
E:\FR\FM\28JYP1.SGM
28JYP1
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 144 / Friday, July 28, 2017 / Proposed Rules
compared to the interest in protecting
the public.
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 IV.A above,
this rule will 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 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 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 E.O. 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
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:10 Jul 27, 2017
Jkt 241001
have determined that it is consistent
with the fundamental federalism
principles and preemption requirements
described in E.O. 13132.
Also, this proposed rule does not have
tribal implications under E.O. 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 proposed 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 an expenditure,
we do discuss the effects of this
proposed 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
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
involves a safety zone encompassing an
area of the Air show aerobatic
performance box over a 4 day period
lasting 8 hours per day. This proposed
rule is categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph 34(g) of
Figure 2–1 of Commandant Instruction
M16475.lD. A Record of Environmental
Consideration supporting this
determination and a 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.

SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00014
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
As part of
the Department of Veterans Affairs’ (VA)
ongoing revision of the Schedule for
Rating Disabilities (VASRD), VA
proposes changes to the portion of the
VASRD that addresses the genitourinary
system, which was last revised in 1994.
See 59 FR 2523 (Jan. 18, 1994); see also
59 FR 46338 (Sep. 8, 1994). Through
this revision, VA aims to eliminate
ambiguities, include medical conditions
not currently in the rating schedule,
implement current, well-refined
medical criteria, and update
terminology to reflect the most recent
medical advances.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Proposed Changes to § 4.115
Currently, 38 CFR 4.115 (‘‘Nephritis’’)
does not adequately reflect current
concepts of renal and urinary tract
disease and conditions. Regardless of
specific disease pathology, kidney
conditions generally produce the same
symptomatology and lead to the same
functional impairment. Therefore, for
rating purposes, analysis of pathology,
such as is currently presented in the
first three sentences of § 4.115, is
unnecessary and VA proposes to remove
this language.
However, VA proposes to retain the
remainder of the language in § 4.115,
which addresses the assignment of
ratings when both renal and
cardiovascular conditions are present,
but replace the reference to ‘‘nephritis’’
in the first sentence of the proposed
revised section with ‘‘renal disease’’ to
more accurately reflect the applicability
of the provision. VA proposes to retitle
this provision as ‘‘Co-existence of Renal
and Cardiovascular Conditions’’ to
better address the amended content.
II. Proposed Changes to § 4.115a
Under the current VASRD, diseases of
the genitourinary system are listed at 38
CFR 4.115b with instructions directing
rating personnel to various rating
criteria found at 38 CFR 4.115a, when
appropriate. The rating criteria in
§ 4.115a address impairment of the
genitourinary system, including renal
dysfunction, voiding dysfunction, and
infections.
The introductory paragraph in
§ 4.115a states that when the VASRD
refers a decision maker to these areas of
dysfunction, only the predominant area
of disability will be considered for
rating purposes. VA proposes clarifying
this statement by noting that distinct
disabilities may be assigned separate
evaluations under this section, pursuant
to the pyramiding provisions in § 4.14.
This statement is intended to reflect that
when a particular diagnostic code refers
to multiple dysfunctions, only the

II. Background Information and Regulatory History
The City of Huntington Beach and Air Support LLC notified the Coast
Guard that it will be conducting an annual four-day Air Show in the
vicinity of the Huntington Beach Pier in September and October. Hazards
associated with navigation safety may arise due to multiple low flying
aircrafts flight paths and stunt performances over the waters off
Huntington Beach. The Captain of the Port Los Angeles-Long Beach has
determined that potential hazards associated with the Air Show
performance would be a safety concern for anyone in the vicinity of the
Air Show aerobatic performance area.
The purpose of this rulemaking is to ensure the safety of persons
or vessels that operate on and in the vicinity of the aerobatic
performance. The Coast Guard proposes this rulemaking under the
authority of 33 U.S.C. 1231.
III. Discussion of Proposed Rule
The COTP proposes to establish a safety zone that would be enforced
for a period of four days in September and October each year. The
safety zone would encompass all navigable waters from the surface to
the sea floor consisting of a line connecting the following
coordinates: 33[deg]38.378' N., 117[deg]58.833' W.; 33[deg]37.972' N.,
117[deg]59.200' W.; 33[deg]39.177' N., 118[deg]01.121' W.; and
33[deg]39.583' N., 118[deg]00.753' W.. All coordinates displayed are
referenced by North American Datum of 1983, World Geodetic System,
1984. During the enforcement period, vessels would be prohibited from
entering into, transiting through, or remaining within the designated
area unless authorized by the Captain of the Port or her designated
representative. General boating public would be notified prior to the
enforcement of the safety zone via Broadcast Notice to Mariners. The
regulatory text we are proposing appears at the end of this document.
IV. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes
and executive orders (E.O.s) related to rulemaking. Below we summarize
our analyses based on a number of these statutes and E.O.s, and we
discuss First Amendment rights of protestors.
A. Regulatory Planning and Review
E.O.s 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 13771, directs agencies to control regulatory costs
through a budgeting process.'' 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 (OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance, it is exempt from the
requirements of E.O. 13771.
This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, and duration of the safety zone. Vessel traffic would be able
to safely transit around this safety zone, which would impact a small
designated area of the Huntington Beach shoreline in the vicinity of
the Huntington Beach Pier. The size of the zone is the minimum
necessary to provide adequate protection for the waterways users,
adjoining areas, and the public. Any hardships experienced by persons
or vessels are considered minimal
[[Page 35139]]
compared to the interest in protecting the public.
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
IV.A above, this rule will 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 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 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 E.O. 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 E.O. 13132.
Also, this proposed rule does not have tribal implications under
E.O. 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 proposed 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 an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this proposed 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
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 involves a safety zone encompassing an
area of the Air show aerobatic performance box over a 4 day period
lasting 8 hours per day. This proposed rule is categorically excluded
from further review under paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2-1 of Commandant
Instruction M16475.lD. A Record of Environmental Consideration
supporting this determination and a 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.
