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
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
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
establishment of a safety zone and,
therefore, is categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph L60(a)
of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS

may lead to the discovery of a
significant environmental impact from
this rule.

June 15, 2018, until September 4, 2018.

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal

On February 22, 2018 the Coast Guard

Zones; Recurring Events in Captain of
the Port Duluth Zone.’’ The NPRM
proposed to amend seven permanent

zones, increase the safety zone radius of
six existing fireworks events, and
modify the format of the regulations in
a table format for annually recurring
events in the Captain of the Port Duluth
Zone under § 165.943. The
aforementioned NPRM was open for
comment for 30 days in which one
comment was received.
III. Discussion of Comments, Changes,
and the Rule
As noted above, we received one
comment on our NPRM published
February 22, 2018. The submission was
not relevant to the rulemaking and no
substantive changes were made to the
rule based upon this comment. We
made nonsubstantive editorial changes
in the regulatory text of this rule that
vary from the proposed rule in the
NPRM.
This rule is necessary to ensure seven
existing regulations receive updated
coordinates, add three new safety zones,
increase the radius of six established
fireworks events, and have the existing
regulations published in a table format.
The updated coordinates are necessary
to ensure safety zones are in place at the
appropriate location of the event. The
addition of three new safety zones, all
of which are fireworks events, will help
prevent injury to spectators from the
pyrotechnics. The increase of safety
zone radius for six published rules is
necessary to protect the public when
larger pyrotechnic shell sizes are used
during the fireworks displays. A table
format increases the readability of
published safety zones.
This rule will not have a significant
economic impact on any vessel owner
or operator as stated in the published
