The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary special local
regulation for all navigable waters of the
Clinch River, extending the entire width
of the river, from mile marker (MM) 49.5
to MM 52.0. This special local
regulation is necessary to provide for
the safety of life on these navigable
waters near Oak Ridge, TN during the
Cardinal Invitational Regatta marine
event. Entry into, transiting through, or
anchoring within this regulated area is
prohibited unless authorized by the
Captain of the Port Sector Ohio Valley
(COTP) or a designated representative.

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 the 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 it is
impracticable. We must establish this
restricted area by March 16, 2018 and
lack sufficient time to provide a
reasonable comment period and then
consider those comments before issuing
this rule. The NPRM process would
delay the establishment of the special
local regulation until after the
scheduled date of the marine event and
jeopardize public safety.
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 this rule would be
impracticable and contrary to the public
interest because immediate action is
necessary to protect persons and
property from the dangers associated
with the marine event.

Jkt 244001
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 33 U.S.C. 1233. The
Captain of the Port Sector Ohio Valley
(COTP) has determined that potential
hazards associated with the Oak Ridge
Rowing Association Cardinal
Invitational Regatta marine event,
occurring from 6 a.m. through 5 p.m.
each day from March 16, 2018 through
March 18, 2018, will be a safety concern
for all navigable waters on the Clinch
River, extending the entire width of the
river, from mile marker (MM) 49.5 to
MM 52.0. The purpose of this rule is to
ensure the safety of life and vessels on
these navigable waters before, during,
and after the scheduled event.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a special local
regulation from 6 a.m. through 5 p.m.
each day from March 16, 2018 through
March 18, 2018 for all navigable waters
of the Clinch River, extending the entire
width of the river, from MM 49.5 to MM
52.0. Enforcement of the regulated area
will occur from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.
The duration of the special local
regulation is intended to ensure the
safety of life and vessels on these
navigable waters before, during, and
after the scheduled event. No vessel or
person will be permitted to enter the
special local regulated area without
obtaining permission from the COTP or
a designated representative. A
designated representative is a
commissioned, warrant, or petty officer
of the U.S. Coast Guard assigned to
units under the operational control of
USCG Sector Ohio Valley. They may be
contacted on VHF–FM Channel 16 or by
telephone at 1–800–253–7465. Persons
and vessels permitted to enter this
regulated area must transit at their
slowest safe speed and comply with all
lawful directions issued by the COTP or
the 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 13771 directs agencies
to control regulatory costs through a
budgeting process. This rule has not
PO 00000
Frm 00038
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
been designated a ‘‘significant
regulatory action,’’ under Executive
Order 12866. Accordingly, this rule has
not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), and
pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt
from the requirements of Executive
Order 13771.
This regulatory action determination
is based on the size, location, duration,
and time-of-day of the special local
regulation. The Coast Guard will issue
written Local Notice to Mariners and
Broadcast Notice to Mariners via VHF–
FM marine channel 16 about the
temporary special local regulation.
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 special
local regulation, 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
E:\FR\FM\19MRR1.SGM
19MRR1
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 53 / Monday, March 19, 2018 / 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.
nshattuck on DSK9F9SC42PROD with RULES
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.
F. Environment
We have analyzed this rule under
Department of Homeland Security
Directive 023–01, which guides 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 rule involves the
establishment of a special local
VerDate Sep<11>2014
14:37 Mar 16, 2018
Jkt 244001
regulation lasting eleven hours on three
days extending a distance of less than
three miles that will prohibit entry on
all navigable waters of the Clinch River
from MM 49.5 to MM 52.0. It is
categorically excluded from further
review under paragraph L63(a) of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction
Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 01. A
Record of Environmental Consideration
supporting this determination is
available in the docket where indicated
under ADDRESSES.
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.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 33 U.S.C.
1233. The Captain of the Port Sector Ohio Valley (COTP) has determined
that potential hazards associated with the Oak Ridge Rowing Association
Cardinal Invitational Regatta marine event, occurring from 6 a.m.
through 5 p.m. each day from March 16, 2018 through March 18, 2018,
will be a safety concern for all navigable waters on the Clinch River,

will occur from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. The duration of the special
local regulation is intended to ensure the safety of life and vessels
on these navigable waters before, during, and after the scheduled
event. No vessel or person will be permitted to enter the special local
regulated area without obtaining permission from the COTP or a

assigned to units under the operational control of USCG Sector Ohio

Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess the

This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, duration, and time-of-day of the special local regulation.
The Coast Guard will issue written Local Notice to Mariners and
Broadcast Notice to Mariners via VHF-FM marine channel 16 about the
temporary special local regulation.
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
special local regulation, 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

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

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 11883]]
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 an 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
Directive 023-01, which guides 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 rule involves the establishment of a special
local regulation lasting eleven hours on three days extending a
distance of less than three miles that will prohibit entry on all
navigable waters of the Clinch River from MM 49.5 to MM 52.0. It is
categorically excluded from further review under paragraph L63(a) of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, Rev. 01. A
Record of Environmental Consideration supporting this determination is
available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.
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.
