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 find that those procedures are
‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to public interest.’’ On April 19, 2018,
the Captain of the Port (COTP) Buffalo
published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM), Docket Number
USCG–2017–1112, to make temporary
safety zones for annual events a final
rule. This event was included in the
NPRM. Its purpose was to mitigate
potential threats to personnel, vessels,
and the marine environment in the
navigable waters within the specified
safety zones. The NPRM addressed
these concerns, and invited the public
to comment during the comment period,
which ended on May 21, 2018. As such,
it is unnecessary to publish an NPRM
for this temporary rule because the
public had opportunity to comment on
it and no comments were received
concerning this event.
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
would be contrary to the rule’s
objectives of ensuring safety of life on
the navigable waters and protection of
persons and vessels in the vicinity of
the fireworks display.
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 Buffalo (COTP) has
determined that a fireworks display
presents significant risks to the public
safety and property. Such hazards
include premature and accidental
detonations, dangerous projectiles, and
falling or burning debris. This rule is
needed to protect personnel, vessels,
and the marine environment in the
navigable waters within the safety zone
while the fireworks display takes place.
