NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
The Coast Guard is issuing this
temporary rule without prior notice and
opportunity to comment pursuant to
authority under section 4(a) of the
Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision
authorizes an agency to issue a rule
without prior notice and opportunity to
comment when the agency for good
cause finds that those procedures are
‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that
good cause exists for not publishing a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because doing
so would be impracticable. The Coast
Guard did not receive the final details
for this event until there was
insufficient time remaining before the
event to publish a NPRM. Thus,
delaying the effective date of this rule to
wait for a comment period to run would
be impracticable because it would
inhibit the Coast Guard’s ability to
protect the public and vessels from the
hazards associated with bridge based
fireworks displays on October 13, 2017.
We are issuing this rule, and 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. For the same reasons
discussed in the preceding paragraph,
