Temporary final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary security zone
for the navigable waters within a half
mile radius of Olmsted Lock and Dam
located at mile marker 964.5 on the
Ohio River. The security zone is needed
to protect dignitaries, vessels, and
waterfront facilities from destruction,
loss, or injury from sabotage or other
subversive acts, accidents, or other
causes of a similar nature during a
dignitary visit. Entry of vessels or
persons into this zone is prohibited
unless specifically authorized by the
Captain of the Port Ohio Valley or a
designated representative.
DATES: This rule is effective from 6 a.m.
through 5 p.m. on August 30, 2018.

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)(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 and contrary to the public
interest. It is impracticable because we
must establish this security zone by
August 30, 2018 and lack sufficient time
to provide a reasonable comment period
and then consider those comments
before issuing the rule. The Coast Guard
received minimal notice regarding the
dignitary visit, which is customary for
security purposes. The Coast Guard has
determined that the security zone is
needed to protect the visiting
dignitaries, persons, and property.
Providing notice would be contrary to
the public interest as it would delay
establishment of the security zone until
after the dignitary visit and jeopardize
the safety of the dignitaries, vessels, and
waterfront facilities.
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 because it is contrary to the
public interest. Immediate action is
needed to provide waterside security
and protection for the dignitary visit.
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 a dignitary visit
on August 30, 2018, will be a security
concern for the dignitaries, vessels, and
waterfront facilities on the Ohio River
near the Olmsted Lock and Dam. This
rule is needed to protect the dignitaries,
vessels, and waterfront facilities from
destruction, loss, or injury from
sabotage or other subversive acts,
accidents, or other causes of a similar
nature during the dignitary visit.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a temporary
security zone from 6 a.m. through 5 p.m.
on August 30, 2018. The security zone
will cover all navigable waters within a
half mile of Olmsted Lock and Dam,
located at mile marker 964.5 on the
Ohio River in Olmsted, IL. The duration
of the security zone is intended to cover
the period of the dignitary visit. Entry
of vessels or persons into this zone is
prohibited unless granted permission by
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 13 or 16, or through
Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley at 1–
800–253–7465. A designated
representative may be a Patrol
Commander (PATCOM). The PATCOM
may be aboard either a Coast Guard or
Coast Guard Auxiliary vessel. The Patrol
Commander may be contacted on
Channel 16 VHF–FM (156.8 MHz) by
the call sign ‘‘PATCOM’’. All persons
and vessels shall comply with the
instructions of the COTP and a
designated on-scene U.S. Coast Guard
representative. The COTP or a
designated representative will inform
the public through Broadcast Notices to
Mariners (BNMs) of the enforcement
period for the temporary security zone
as well as any changes in the dates and
times of enforcement.

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 13563 (‘‘Improving
Regulation and Regulatory Review’’)
and 12866 (‘‘Regulatory Planning and
Review’’) 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
(including potential economic,
environmental, public health and safety
effects, distributive impacts, and
equity). Executive Order 13563
emphasizes the importance of
quantifying both costs and benefits, of
reducing costs, of harmonizing rules,
and of promoting flexibility. Executive
Order 13771 (‘‘Reducing Regulation and
Controlling Regulatory Costs’’) directs
agencies to reduce regulation and
control regulatory costs and provides
that ‘‘for every one new regulation
issued, at least two prior regulations be
identified for elimination, and that the
cost of planned regulations be prudently
managed and controlled through a
budgeting process.’’
The Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) has not designated this rule a
‘‘significant regulatory action,’’ under
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866.
Accordingly, OMB has not reviewed it.
As this rule is not a significant
regulatory action, this rule is exempt
from the requirements of Executive
VerDate Sep<11>2014
00:53 Aug 24, 2018
Jkt 244001
Order 13771. See OMB’s Memorandum
‘‘Guidance Implementing Executive
Order 13771, Titled ‘Reducing
Regulation and Controlling Regulatory
Costs’ ’’ (April 5, 2017).
This regulatory action determination
is based on the size, location, and
duration of the security zone. The
security zone impacts a half mile radius
around the Olmsted Lock and Dam for
eleven hours on one afternoon. The
Coast Guard will also issue Broadcast
Notices 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
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
temporary security 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 (Public Law 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
PO 00000
Frm 00009
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
42779
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 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

security zone lasting eleven hours that
will prohibit entry within a half mile
radius of the Olmsted Lock and Dam,
located at mile marker 964.5 on the
Ohio River. It is categorically excluded
from further review under paragraph
L60(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.

The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary rule without prior notice

the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This
provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and

good cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM) with respect to this rule because it is impracticable and
contrary to the public interest. It is impracticable because we must

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 a dignitary visit on August 30,
2018, will be a security concern for the dignitaries, vessels, and
waterfront facilities on the Ohio River near the Olmsted Lock and Dam.
This rule is needed to protect the dignitaries, vessels, and waterfront

IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a temporary security zone from 6 a.m. through
5 p.m. on August 30, 2018. The security zone will cover all navigable
waters within a half mile of Olmsted Lock and Dam, located at mile
marker 964.5 on the Ohio River in Olmsted, IL. The duration of the
security zone is intended to cover the period of the dignitary visit.
Entry of vessels or persons into this zone is prohibited unless granted
permission by the COTP or a designated representative. A designated
representative is a commissioned,
[[Page 42779]]
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 13 or 16, or through Coast Guard Sector
Ohio Valley at 1-800-253-7465. A designated representative may be a
Patrol Commander (PATCOM). The PATCOM may be aboard either a Coast
Guard or Coast Guard Auxiliary vessel. The Patrol Commander may be
contacted on Channel 16 VHF-FM (156.8 MHz) by the call sign ``PATCOM''.
All persons and vessels shall comply with the instructions of the COTP
and a designated on-scene U.S. Coast Guard representative. The COTP or
a designated representative will inform the public through Broadcast
Notices to Mariners (BNMs) of the enforcement period for the temporary
security zone as well as any changes in the dates and times of
enforcement.
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 13563 (``Improving Regulation and Regulatory
Review'') and 12866 (``Regulatory Planning and Review'') 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 (including potential economic,
environmental, public health and safety effects, distributive impacts,
and equity). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of
quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing

reduce regulation and control regulatory costs and provides that ``for
every one new regulation issued, at least two prior regulations be
identified for elimination, and that the cost of planned regulations be
prudently managed and controlled through a budgeting process.''
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has not designated this
rule a ``significant regulatory action,'' under section 3(f) of
Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, OMB has not reviewed it. As this
rule is not a significant regulatory action, this rule is exempt from
the requirements of Executive Order 13771. See OMB's Memorandum
``Guidance Implementing Executive Order 13771, Titled `Reducing
Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs' '' (April 5, 2017).
This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, and duration of the security zone. The security zone impacts
a half mile radius around the Olmsted Lock and Dam for eleven hours on
one afternoon. The Coast Guard will also issue Broadcast Notices 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
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
temporary security 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 (Public Law 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 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

security zone lasting eleven hours that will prohibit entry within a
half mile radius of the Olmsted Lock and Dam, located at mile marker
964.5 on the Ohio River. It is categorically excluded from further
review under paragraph L60(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.
