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 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 doing
so would be impracticable and contrary
to public interest. The specific date and
time for the event was not set with
sufficient time to publish and request
public comment on the establishment of
a safety zone. Thus, delaying the
effective date of this rule to allow for a
comment period to run would be
impracticable because it would inhibit
the Coast Guard’s ability to protect
participants from hazards from vessel
traffic.
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. Due to the date of notification
for the event and potential danger to the
swim participants, delaying the effective
period of this safety zone would be
contrary to public interest.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 33 U.S.C. 1231. The
COTP has determined that potential
hazards associated with vessel traffic in
the area of the Cocos Crossing swim
event on May 27, 2018 will be a safety
concern for participants and that all
vessels are to keep a 100-yard radius
from event participants and support
vessels. The purpose of this rule is to
ensure the safety of the participants and
the navigable waters in the safety zone
before, during, and after the scheduled
event.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a safety zone for
Cocos Crossing swim event in the
waters of Cocos Lagoon, Merizo, Guam.
This event is scheduled to take place
from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. on May 27, 2018.
This safety zone is necessary to protect
all persons and vessels participating in
this marine event from potential safety
hazards associated with vessel traffic in
the area. Race participants, chase boats
and organizers of the event will be
exempt from the safety zone. Entry of
persons or vessels into this safety zone
is prohibited unless authorized by the
COTP.
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
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 the size, location, duration, and
time-of-day of the safety zone. Vessel
traffic will be able to safety transit
around this safety zone which will
impact a small designated area of the
Cocos Lagoon for 6 hours. Moreover, the
Coast Guard will issue Broadcast Notice
to Mariners via VHF–FM marine
