Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 59 / Wednesday, March 27, 2019 / Proposed Rules
are not authorized to conduct testing for
bovine tuberculosis or brucellosis.
Others stated they could not compel
them to do so. Several wildlife
authorities stated that the surveillance
goal was too stringent, and should be set
at a level sufficient to gauge prevalence,
rather than detect an infected animal.
Both animal health and wildlife
authorities stated that the Animal and
Plant Health Inspection Service would
need to fund this testing in order for it
to be conducted.
After considering all the comments
we received, we have concluded that it
is necessary to reexamine the proposed
changes to the domestic bovine
tuberculosis and brucellosis programs.
Therefore, we are withdrawing the
proposed amendments to parts 50, 51,
71, 76, 77, 78, 86, and 161 in our
December 16, 2015, proposed rule
referenced above. At this time we intend
to continue considering the proposed
amendments to part 93 that govern the
importation of cattle with respect to
bovine tuberculosis and brucellosis as
we proposed in the December 16, 2015,
proposed rule. The concerns and
recommendations of all the commenters
will be considered if any new proposed
regulations regarding the domestic
bovine tuberculosis and brucellosis
programs are developed.
Authority: 7 U.S.C. 8301–8317; 7 CFR 2.22,

ACTION:
The Coast Guard proposes to
amend and update its list of recurring
safety zone regulations that take place in
the Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley area
of responsibility (AOR). This proposed
action is necessary to update the current

list of recurring safety zones with
revisions, additional events and removal
of events that no longer take place. This
regulation would restrict vessel traffic
from the safety zones during the events
unless authorized by the Captain of the
Port Sector Ohio Valley or a designated
representative. We invite your
comments on this proposed rulemaking.
DATES: Comments and related material
must be received by the Coast Guard on
or before April 11, 2019.

E.O. Executive Order
FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background, Purpose, and Legal
Basis
The Captain of the Port Sector Ohio
Valley (COTP) proposes to amend 33
CFR 165.801, Table 1 titled ‘‘Sector
Ohio Valley Annual and Recurring
Safety Zones’’, to update our regulations
for annual fireworks displays and other
recurring events in the Eighth Coast
Guard District.
The Table contains a list of annual
and recurring safety zones in the Sector
Ohio Valley as of May 11, 2018.
These events include air shows,
fireworks displays, and other marine
related events requiring a limited access
area restricting vessel traffic for safety
purposes. The current list in 33 CFR
165.801, Table 1, requires amendment
to provide new information on existing
safety zones, to include new safety
zones expected to recur annually or
biannually, and to remove safety zones
that are no longer needed. Issuing
individual regulations for each new
safety zone, amendment, or removal of
an existing safety zone creates
unnecessary administrative costs and
PO 00000
Frm 00004
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
11449
burdens. This single proposed
rulemaking will considerably reduce
administrative overhead and provide
the public with notice through
publication in the Federal Register of
the upcoming recurring safety zone
regulations. Event sponsors desiring to
hold an event not listed in the table for
the Sector Ohio Valley area of
responsibility may seek permission for a
regulated area for their event through a
request to the phone number or email
listed in the above FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.
The Coast Guard encourages the
public to participate in this proposed
rulemaking through the comment
process so that any necessary changes
can be identified and implemented in a
timely and efficient manner. The Coast
Guard will address all public comments
accordingly, whether through response,
additional revision to the regulation, or
otherwise.
The Coast Guard is issuing this notice
of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) with a
15-day prior notice and opportunity to
comment pursuant to section (b)(3) of
the Administrative Procedure Act (APA)
(5 U.S.C. 553). This provision authorizes
an agency to publish a rule in less than
30 days before its effective date for
‘‘good cause found and published with
the rule.’’ Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B),
the Coast Guard finds that good cause
exists for publishing this NPRM with a
15-day comment period because it is
impractical to provide a 30-day
comment period. These proposed
regulated areas are necessary to ensure
the safety of vessels and persons during
the marine events. It is impracticable to
publish an NPRM with a 30-day
comment period because some of these
updates must be established as early as
the end of April 2019. A 15-day
comment period would allow the Coast
Guard to provide for public notice and
comment, but also update the regulated
areas soon enough that the length of the
notice and comment period does not
compromise public safety.
III. Discussion of the Proposed Rule
Part 165 of 33 CFR contains
regulations establishing regulated
navigation areas and limited access
areas to restrict vessel traffic for the
safety of persons and property. Section
165.801, Table 1, establishes recurring
safety zones to restrict vessel transit into
and through specified areas to protect
spectators, mariners, and other persons
and property from potential hazards
presented during certain events taking
place in Sector Ohio Valley’s AOR.
From time to time, this section requires
amendment to properly reflect the
recurring safety zones in the AOR. This

The effect of this proposed rule would
be to restrict general navigation in the
safety zones during these events.
Vessels intending to transit the
designated waterway through the safety
zones will only be allowed to transit the
area when COTP, or a designated
representative, has deemed it safe to do
so or at the completion of the events.
The proposed annually recurring safety
zones are necessary to provide for the
safety of life on navigable waters during
the events.
IV. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this proposed 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 NPRM has not
been designated a ‘‘significant
regulatory action,’’ under Executive
Order 12866. Accordingly, the NPRM
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, location, and
duration of the safety zones. These
safety zones are limited in size and
duration, and are usually positioned
away from high vessel traffic areas.
Moreover, the Coast Guard would issue
a Broadcast Notice to Mariners via
VHF–FM marine channel 16 about the
zones, and the rule would allow vessels
to seek permission to enter the zones.
Vessel traffic would also be able to
request permission from the COTP or a
designated representative to enter the
restricted area.
B. Impact on Small Entities
The Regulatory Flexibility Act of
1980, 5 U.S.C. 601–612, as amended,
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:45 Mar 26, 2019
Jkt 247001
Wheeling, WV ...
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 proposed rule would not
have a significant economic impact on
a substantial number of small entities.
While some owners or operators of
vessels intending to transit these safety
zones may be small entities, for the
reasons stated in section IV.A above this
proposed rule would 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 proposed
rule. If the proposed 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. The Coast
Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about
this proposed rule or any policy or
action of the Coast Guard.
C. Collection of Information
This proposed 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 E.O. 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
E.O. 13132.
Also, this rule does not have tribal
implications under E.O. 13175,

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 proposed 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 made a
preliminary determination that this
action is one of a category of actions that
do not individually or cumulatively
have a significant effect on the human
environment. Normally such actions are
categorically excluded from further
review under paragraph L61 of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction
Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 01 as it
involves the revision of the table that
informs the public of safety zones
occurring in the Sector Ohio Valley
AOR. We seek any comments or
information that may lead to the
discovery of a significant environmental
impact from this proposed rule.
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

further revision of the existing regional
haze implementation plan is not needed
at this time. The Progress Report
addresses the federal Regional Haze
Rule requirements under the Clean Air
Act (CAA) to submit a report describing
progress in achieving reasonable
progress goals (RPGs) established for
regional haze and a determination of the
adequacy of the state’s existing
implementation plan addressing
regional haze. Arizona’s Progress Report
notes that Arizona has implemented the
measures in the regional haze
implementation plan due to be in place
by the date of the Progress Report and
that visibility in Class I areas affected by
emissions from Arizona is improving.
The EPA is proposing approval of
Arizona’s determination that the State’s
regional haze implementation plan is
adequate to meet RPGs in Class I areas
affected by emissions from Arizona for
the first implementation period, which
extended through 2018, and requires no
substantive revision at this time.

Safety Zones; Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley Annual and Recurring
Safety Zones Update
AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to amend and update its list of
recurring safety zone regulations that take place in the Coast Guard
Sector Ohio Valley area of responsibility (AOR). This proposed action
is necessary to update the current list of recurring safety zones with
revisions, additional events and removal of events that no longer take
place. This regulation would restrict vessel traffic from the safety
zones during the events unless authorized by the Captain of the Port
Sector Ohio Valley or a designated representative. We invite your
comments on this proposed rulemaking.
DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast
Guard on or before April 11, 2019.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2019-0013 using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at https://www.regulations.gov. See the ``Public Participation and Request for
Comments'' portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further
instructions on submitting comments.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions on this proposed
rule, call or email Petty Officer Riley Jackson, Sector Ohio Valley,
U.S. Coast Guard; telephone (502) 779-5347, email SECOHV-WWM@uscg.mil.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Table of Abbreviations
CFR Code of Federal Regulations
COTP Captain of the Port Sector Ohio Valley
DHS Department of Homeland Security
E.O. Executive Order
FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec. Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis
The Captain of the Port Sector Ohio Valley (COTP) proposes to amend
33 CFR 165.801, Table 1 titled ``Sector Ohio Valley Annual and
Recurring Safety Zones'', to update our regulations for annual
fireworks displays and other recurring events in the Eighth Coast Guard
District.
The Table contains a list of annual and recurring safety zones in
the Sector Ohio Valley as of May 11, 2018.
These events include air shows, fireworks displays, and other
marine related events requiring a limited access area restricting
vessel traffic for safety purposes. The current list in 33 CFR 165.801,
Table 1, requires amendment to provide new information on existing
safety zones, to include new safety zones expected to recur annually or
biannually, and to remove safety zones that are no longer needed.
Issuing individual regulations for each new safety zone, amendment, or
removal of an existing safety zone creates unnecessary administrative
costs and burdens. This single proposed rulemaking will considerably
reduce administrative overhead and provide the public with notice
through publication in the Federal Register of the upcoming recurring
safety zone regulations. Event sponsors desiring to hold an event not
listed in the table for the Sector Ohio Valley area of responsibility
may seek permission for a regulated area for their event through a
request to the phone number or email listed in the above FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.
The Coast Guard encourages the public to participate in this
proposed rulemaking through the comment process so that any necessary
changes can be identified and implemented in a timely and efficient
manner. The Coast Guard will address all public comments accordingly,
whether through response, additional revision to the regulation, or
otherwise.
The Coast Guard is issuing this notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM) with a 15-day prior notice and opportunity to comment pursuant
to section (b)(3) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C.
553). This provision authorizes an agency to publish a rule in less
than 30 days before its effective date for ``good cause found and
published with the rule.'' Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), the Coast Guard
finds that good cause exists for publishing this NPRM with a 15-day
comment period because it is impractical to provide a 30-day comment
period. These proposed regulated areas are necessary to ensure the
safety of vessels and persons during the marine events. It is
impracticable to publish an NPRM with a 30-day comment period because
some of these updates must be established as early as the end of April
2019. A 15-day comment period would allow the Coast Guard to provide
for public notice and comment, but also update the regulated areas soon
enough that the length of the notice and comment period does not
compromise public safety.
III. Discussion of the Proposed Rule
Part 165 of 33 CFR contains regulations establishing regulated
navigation areas and limited access areas to restrict vessel traffic
for the safety of persons and property. Section 165.801, Table 1,
establishes recurring safety zones to restrict vessel transit into and
through specified areas to protect spectators, mariners, and other
persons and property from potential hazards presented during certain
events taking place in Sector Ohio Valley's AOR. From time to time,
this section requires amendment to properly reflect the recurring
safety zones in the AOR. This
[[Page 11450]]
proposed rule amends and updates Sec. 165.801, Table 1 as described
below.
This proposed rule adds 8 new recurring safety zones, removes 6
recurring events, and amends the dates and regulated areas for 9
recurring safety zones already listed in Section 165.801, Table 1, as
follows:
This proposed rule would add the following 8 safety zones to Table
1 of Part 165.801:

amendments would involve changes to marine event dates and/or regulated
areas, with reference by line number to the current table. The 9 safety

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The effect of this proposed rule would be to restrict general
navigation in the safety zones during these events. Vessels intending
to transit the designated waterway through the safety zones will only
be allowed to transit the area when COTP, or a designated
representative, has deemed it safe to do so or at the completion of the
events. The proposed annually recurring safety zones are necessary to
provide for the safety of life on navigable waters during the events.
IV. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this proposed 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 NPRM has not been
designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order
12866. Accordingly, the NPRM 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,
location, and duration of the safety zones. These safety zones are
limited in size and duration, and are usually positioned away from high
vessel traffic areas. Moreover, the Coast Guard would issue a Broadcast
Notice to Mariners via VHF-FM marine channel 16 about the zones, and
the rule would allow vessels to seek permission to enter the zones.
Vessel traffic would also be able to request permission from the COTP
or a designated representative to enter the restricted area.
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
proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit
these safety zones may be small entities, for the reasons stated in
section IV.A above this proposed rule would 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
proposed rule. If the proposed 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. The Coast
Guard will not retaliate against small entities that question or
complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action of the Coast
Guard.
C. Collection of Information
This proposed 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 E.O. 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 E.O. 13132.
Also, this rule does not have tribal implications under E.O. 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 proposed 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 made
a preliminary determination that this action is one of a category of
actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant
effect on the human environment. Normally such actions are
categorically excluded from further review under paragraph L61 of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, Rev. 01 as
it involves the revision of the table that informs the public of safety
zones occurring in the Sector Ohio Valley AOR. We seek any comments or
information that may lead to the discovery of a significant
environmental impact from this proposed rule.
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
[[Page 11452]]
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.
V. Public Participation and Request for Comments
We view public participation as essential to effective rulemaking,
and will consider all comments and material received during the comment
period. Your comment can help shape the outcome of this rulemaking. If
you submit a comment, please include the docket number for this
rulemaking, indicate the specific section of this document to which
each comment applies, and provide a reason for each suggestion or
recommendation.
We encourage you to submit comments through the Federal eRulemaking
Portal at https://www.regulations.gov. If your material cannot be
submitted using https://www.regulations.gov, contact the person in the
