AGENCY:
ACTION:
Coast Guard, DHS.
Temporary final rule.
The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary safety zone for
a one-mile stretch of the navigable
waters on of the Cumberland River, near
the U.S. 68/KY 80 Lake Barkley BridgeHenry R. Lawrence Memorial Bridge in
Canton, KY. The safety zone is needed
to protect persons, vessels, and the
marine environment from potential
hazards created by the demolition of the
bridge pier. Entry of vessels or persons
into this zone is prohibited unless
authorized by the Captain of the Port
Sector Ohio Valley or a designated
representative.
SUMMARY:
This rule is effective without
actual notice from May 31, 2018 through
6 a.m. on June 2, 2018 or until the
bridge pier demolition operation and
the cleanup of the main navigable
channel is complete, whichever occurs
first. For the purposes of enforcement,
actual notice will be used from 6 a.m.
on May 30, 2018 through May 31, 2018.

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
VerDate Sep<11>2014
14:57 May 30, 2018
Jkt 244001
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)(3)(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. On May 16, 2018, the
Coast Guard was notified of the need for
immediate bridge pier demolition
operations. This safety zone must be
established by May 30, 2018 and we
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 safety
zone until after the scheduled dates of
the bridge pier demolition and
compromise 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 the effective date of
this rule would be impracticable and
contrary to public interest because
immediate action is needed to ensure
safety of persons and vessels during the
US 68/KY 80 Lake Barkley Bridge pier
demolition.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 33 U.S.C. 1231. The
Captain of the Port Sector Ohio Valley
(COTP) has determined that potential
hazards associated with bridge pier
demolition and clean-up operations
beginning on May 30, 2018 will be a
safety concern for anyone within a onehalf mile radius of the pier. The purpose
of this rule is to protect persons, vessels,
and the marine environment while the
bridge pier is being demolished.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a temporary
safety zone from 6 a.m. on May 30, 2018
through 6 a.m. on June 2, 2018 or until
the bridge pier demolition operation
and cleanup of the main navigable
channel is complete, whichever occurs
first. The safety zone will cover all
navigable waters of the Cumberland
River between miles 62.6 and 63.6, and
a safety vessel will coordinate all vessel
PO 00000
Frm 00034
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
traffic during the enforcement period.
The duration of the zone is intended to
protect persons, vessels, and the marine
environment while the bridge pier is
demolished. No vessel or person is
permitted to enter the safety zone
without obtaining permission from the
COTP or a designated representative.
They may be contacted via VHF–FM
marine channel 16 or by telephone at
270–217–0959. If permission is granted,
all persons and vessels shall comply
with the instructions of the COTP Ohio
Valley or a designated representative.
The COTP or a designated
representative will inform the public of
the enforcement period of this safety
zone through Broadcast Notices to
Mariners (BNMs), Local Notice to
Mariners (LNMs), and/or Marine Safety
Information Bulletins (MSIBs) as
appropriate.
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 on the size and duration of the
rule. This rule establishes a temporary
safety zone over a one-mile section of
the Cumberland River for 3 days.
Moreover, the Coast Guard will issue a
Broadcast Notice to Mariners via VHF–
FM marine channel 16 about the zone,
and the rule allows vessels to seek
permission to enter the zone.
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
E:\FR\FM\31MYR1.SGM
31MYR1
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 105 / Thursday, May 31, 2018 / Rules and Regulations
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 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
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
VerDate Sep<11>2014
14:57 May 30, 2018
Jkt 244001
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 and Commandant
Instruction M16475.1D, 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 rule involves a safety
zone lasting 3 days that will prohibit
entry within one-mile stretch of the
Cumberland River. It is categorically
excluded from further review under
paragraph L 60(c) 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.

regulations on small entities during rulemaking. The term ``small
entities'' comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations
[[Page 24939]]
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
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

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,

E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
