I. Table of Abbreviations

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
The Coast Guard is amending the
regulation for safety zones for annual
fireworks displays in the Captain of the
Port Zone Columbia River, 33 CFR
165.1315. This rule is removing 10
safety zones for inactive fireworks
displays, adding 1 safety zone for a new,
recurring fireworks display for which
we previously issued a temporary safety
zone, and updating the date or location
for 3 existing fireworks displays.
On September 28, 2018, the Coast
Guard published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) titled, ‘‘Safety
Zone; Annual Fireworks Displays
within the Sector Columbia River
Captain of the Port Zone’’ (83 FR
49028). There we stated why we issued
the NPRM, and invited comments on
our proposed regulatory action related
to annual fireworks displays. During the
comment period that ended October 29,
2018, we received four comments.

The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 33 U.S.C. 1231. The
Captain of the Port Columbia River
(COTP) has determined that potential
hazards associated with the fireworks
displays create hazardous conditions for
the maritime public because of the large
number of vessels near the displays, as
well as the noise, falling debris, and
explosions that occur during the event.
Because firework discharge sites pose a
potential hazard to the maritime public,
these safety zones are necessary in order
to restrict vessel movement and reduce
vessel congregation in the proximity of
the firework discharge sites. The
purpose of this rule is to ensure safety
of vessels and the navigable waters in
the safety zone before, during, and after
the scheduled events and provides the
public accurate information regarding
safety zones for annual fireworks
displays in the Captain of the Port Zone
Columbia River.
IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes,
and the Rule
As noted above, we received four
comments on our NPRM published
September 28, 2018. The first comment
suggested establishing new safety zones
to replace the 10 inactive safety zones
this rule is removing. There has been no
indication from the sponsors of these
events that they plan to continue them
and our office has not received any
additional information to warrant the
addition of replacement safety zones.
The second and third comments
contained no suggested changes or
recommendations. The fourth comment
supported the creation of this rule.
There are no changes in the regulatory
text of this rule from the proposed rule
in the NPRM.
The Coast Guard is removing 10
fireworks display safety zones in 33 CFR
165.1315 that are listed in Table 1 below
because there has been no indication
from the sponsors of these events that
they plan to continue them.
