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 an expenditure,
we do discuss the effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.

II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
On April 13, 2017, the Coast Guard
published an NPRM in the Federal
Register titled Special Local Regulations
and Safety Zone; Recurring Marine
Events Held in the Coast Guard Sector
Northern New England Captain of the
Port Zone, (82 FR 17782), proposing to
update special local regulations and
safety zones. There we stated why we
issued the NPRM and invited comments
on our proposed regulatory action. No
public comments or request for a public
meeting were received during the NPRM
process. Swim events, fireworks
displays, and marine events are held on
an annual recurring basis on the
navigable waters within the Coast Guard
Sector Northern New England COTP
Zone. In the past, the Coast Guard has
established special local regulations,
regulated navigation areas, and safety
zones for these annual recurring events
on a case by case basis to ensure the
protection of the maritime public and
event participants from the hazards
associated with these events. In the past
year, events were assessed for their
likelihood to recur in subsequent years
or to be discontinued. These events
were added to or deleted from the tables
accordingly. In addition, minor changes
to existing events were made to ensure
the accuracy of event details.
The purpose of this rulemaking is to
reduce administrative overhead,
expedite public notification of events,
and ensure the protection of the
maritime public during marine events in
the Sector Northern New England area.
We are issuing this rule 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. The
comment period for the NPRM
associated with the Special Local
Regulations and Safety Zone; Recurring
Marine Events Held in the Coast Guard
Sector Northern New England Captain
of the Port Zone expired on May 15,
2017. The first events are scheduled to
occur June 16, 2017. Thus, there is now
insufficient time for a 30 day effective
period before the need to enforce this
safety zone and special local
regulations. Delaying the enforcement of
this safety zone and special local
regulations to allow a 30 day effective
period would be impracticable.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard issues this
rulemaking under authority in 33 U.S.C.
1231. This rule updates the tables of
annual recurring events in the existing
regulation for the Coast Guard Sector
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:39 Sep 20, 2017
Jkt 241001
Northern New England COTP Zone. The
tables provide the event name, sponsor,
and type, as well as approximate times,
dates, and locations of the events.
Advanced public notification of specific
times, dates, regulated areas, and
enforcement periods for each event will
be provided through appropriate means,
which may include, the Local Notice to
Mariners, Broadcast Notice to Mariners,
and a Notice of Enforcement published
in the Federal Register at least 30 days
prior to the event date. If an event does
not have a date and time listed in this
regulation, then the precise dates and
times of the enforcement period for that
event will be announced through a
Local Notice to Mariners and, if time
permits, a Notice of Enforcement in the
Federal Register.
IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes,
and the Rule
As noted above, we received no
comments to the NPRM published April
13, 2017. The single change from the
NPRM is the modification of one
position to the Colchester Triathlon
held in Colchester, VT. The Coast Guard
has adjusted a mistake to a position
made in the NPRM that went unnoticed
until after publication in the Federal
Register.
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, reducing costs,
harmonizing rules, and for 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.
We expect the economic impact of
this rule to be minimal. Although this
regulation may have some impact on the
public, the potential impact will be
minimized for the following reason: The
Coast Guard is only modifying existing
regulations to account for new
information.
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
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 regulated
waters 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 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
E:\FR\FM\21SER1.SGM
21SER1
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 182 / Thursday, September 21, 2017 / Rules and Regulations
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 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 made a
preliminary determination 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 rule involves water
activities including swimming events,
boat races, and fireworks displays. The
regulatory actions related to these
activities are categorically excluded
from further review under paragraph
34(g)(Safety Zones) and (34)(h)(Special
Local Regulations) of Figure 2–1 of
Commandant Instruction M16475.lD. A
Record of Environmental Consideration
(REC) supporting this finding is
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 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

the maritime public and event participants from the hazards associated
with certain maritime events.
DATES: This rule is effective without actual notice on September 21,
2017. For the purposes of enforcement, actual notice will be used from
June 26, 2017 through September 21, 2017.

Pub. L. Public Law

[[Page 44064]]
II. Background Information and Regulatory History
On April 13, 2017, the Coast Guard published an NPRM in the Federal
Register titled Special Local Regulations and Safety Zone; Recurring
Marine Events Held in the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England
Captain of the Port Zone, (82 FR 17782), proposing to update special
local regulations and safety zones. There we stated why we issued the
NPRM and invited comments on our proposed regulatory action. No public
comments or request for a public meeting were received during the NPRM
process. Swim events, fireworks displays, and marine events are held on
an annual recurring basis on the navigable waters within the Coast
Guard Sector Northern New England COTP Zone. In the past, the Coast
Guard has established special local regulations, regulated navigation
areas, and safety zones for these annual recurring events on a case by
case basis to ensure the protection of the maritime public and event
participants from the hazards associated with these events. In the past
year, events were assessed for their likelihood to recur in subsequent
years or to be discontinued. These events were added to or deleted from
the tables accordingly. In addition, minor changes to existing events
were made to ensure the accuracy of event details.
The purpose of this rulemaking is to reduce administrative
overhead, expedite public notification of events, and ensure the
protection of the maritime public during marine events in the Sector
Northern New England area.
We are issuing this rule 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. The comment period for the
NPRM associated with the Special Local Regulations and Safety Zone;
Recurring Marine Events Held in the Coast Guard Sector Northern New
England Captain of the Port Zone expired on May 15, 2017. The first
events are scheduled to occur June 16, 2017. Thus, there is now
insufficient time for a 30 day effective period before the need to
enforce this safety zone and special local regulations. Delaying the
enforcement of this safety zone and special local regulations to allow
a 30 day effective period would be impracticable.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard issues this rulemaking under authority in 33 U.S.C.
1231. This rule updates the tables of annual recurring events in the
existing regulation for the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England
COTP Zone. The tables provide the event name, sponsor, and type, as
well as approximate times, dates, and locations of the events. Advanced
public notification of specific times, dates, regulated areas, and
enforcement periods for each event will be provided through appropriate
means, which may include, the Local Notice to Mariners, Broadcast
Notice to Mariners, and a Notice of Enforcement published in the
Federal Register at least 30 days prior to the event date. If an event
does not have a date and time listed in this regulation, then the
precise dates and times of the enforcement period for that event will
be announced through a Local Notice to Mariners and, if time permits, a
Notice of Enforcement in the Federal Register.
IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule
As noted above, we received no comments to the NPRM published April
13, 2017. The single change from the NPRM is the modification of one
position to the Colchester Triathlon held in Colchester, VT. The Coast
Guard has adjusted a mistake to a position made in the NPRM that went
unnoticed until after publication in the Federal Register.
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, reducing costs, harmonizing rules,
and for 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.
We expect the economic impact of this rule to be minimal. Although
this regulation may have some impact on the public, the potential
impact will be minimized for the following reason: The Coast Guard is
only modifying existing regulations to account for new information.
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
regulated waters 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 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
[[Page 44065]]
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 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 made a preliminary
determination 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 rule involves water activities including swimming
events, boat races, and fireworks displays. The regulatory actions
related to these activities are categorically excluded from further
review under paragraph 34(g)(Safety Zones) and (34)(h)(Special Local
Regulations) of Figure 2-1 of Commandant Instruction M16475.lD. A
Record of Environmental Consideration (REC) supporting this finding is
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 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.
