Notice of proposed rulemaking.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard proposes to
establish a permanent special local
regulation to enable vessel movement
restrictions for certain waters of the
Zimovia Strait. This action is necessary
to provide for the safety of life on these
navigable waters near Wrangell Harbor
during power boat races on July 4, 2019
and every subsequent year on July 4.
This proposed rulemaking would
prohibit persons and vessels from
transiting through, mooring, or
anchoring within the special local
regulation race area unless authorized
by the Captain of the Port Southeast
Alaska or a designated representative.
We invite your comments on this
proposed rulemaking.
DATES: Comments and related material

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background, Purpose, and Legal
Basis
On January 16, 2019, the Wrangell
Chamber of Commerce notified the
Coast Guard that it will be conducting
high speed boat races from 11 a.m. to 7
p.m. on July 4, 2019, as part of the
Wrangell 4th of July Celebration. The
boat races will be taking place
approximately 100 yards off of the city
dock in Wrangell, AK. The Captain of
the Port Southeast Alaska (COTP) has
determined that potential hazards
associated with the high speed races is
a safety concern for anyone within the
zone.
The purpose of this rulemaking is to
ensure the safety of vessels and the
navigable waters within a race area
before, during, and after the scheduled
event. The Coast Guard proposes this
rulemaking under authority in 33 U.S.C.
1231.
III. Discussion of Proposed Rule
The COTP proposes to establish a
special local regulation from 11 a.m. to
7 p.m. on July 4, 2019, and every
subsequent year on July 4th. The special
local regulation would cover all
navigable waters within the race area to
include Wrangell Harbor entrance and
an area extending Northwest along the
shoreline approximately 1000 yards and
Southwest approximately 500 yards. No
vessel or person would be permitted to
enter the special local regulation area
without obtaining permission from the
COTP or a designated representative.
The regulatory text we are proposing
appears at the end of this document.
E:\FR\FM\29MYP1.SGM
29MYP1
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 103 / Wednesday, May 29, 2019 / Proposed Rules
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.
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, duration,
and time-of-day of the special local
regulation. Vessel traffic would be able
to safely transit around the proposed
race area, which would impact a small
designated area in Wrangell Harbor for
8 hours. Moreover, the Coast Guard
would issue a Broadcast Notice to
Mariners via VHF–FM marine channel
16 about the race area, and the rule
would allow vessels to seek permission
to enter or transit through the race area.
khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with PROPOSALS
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 the special
local regulation area 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.
If you think that your business,
organization, or governmental
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity
and that this rule would have a
significant economic impact on it,
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:00 May 28, 2019
Jkt 247001
please submit a comment (see
explaining why you think it
qualifies and how and to what degree
this rule would economically affect it.
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
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.
ADDRESSES)
C. Collection of Information
This proposed rule would 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 proposed 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 proposed rule does not have
tribal implications under Executive
Order 13175, Consultation and
Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it would 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 proposed rule has
implications for federalism or Indian
tribes, please contact the person listed
in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section.
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
PO 00000
Frm 00004
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
24733
$100,000,000 (adjusted for inflation) or
more in any one year. Though this
proposed rule would 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 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 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. This proposed rule
involves a special local regulation
lasting eight (8) hours that would
prohibit entry or transit through the area
without obtaining permission from the
COTP or a designated representative.
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. A preliminary Record
of Environmental Consideration
supporting this determination is
available in the docket where indicated
under ADDRESSES. We seek any
comments or information that may lead
to the discovery of a significant
environmental impact from this
proposed rule.
V. Public Participation and Request for
Comments
We view public participation as
essential to effective rulemaking, and
we 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

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec. Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis
On January 16, 2019, the Wrangell Chamber of Commerce notified the
Coast Guard that it will be conducting high speed boat races from 11
a.m. to 7 p.m. on July 4, 2019, as part of the Wrangell 4th of July
Celebration. The boat races will be taking place approximately 100
yards off of the city dock in Wrangell, AK. The Captain of the Port
Southeast Alaska (COTP) has determined that potential hazards
associated with the high speed races is a safety concern for anyone
within the zone.
The purpose of this rulemaking is to ensure the safety of vessels
and the navigable waters within a race area before, during, and after
the scheduled event. The Coast Guard proposes this rulemaking under
authority in 33 U.S.C. 1231.
III. Discussion of Proposed Rule
The COTP proposes to establish a special local regulation from 11
a.m. to 7 p.m. on July 4, 2019, and every subsequent year on July 4th.
The special local regulation would cover all navigable waters within
the race area to include Wrangell Harbor entrance and an area extending
Northwest along the shoreline approximately 1000 yards and Southwest
approximately 500 yards. No vessel or person would be permitted to
enter the special local regulation area without obtaining permission
from the COTP or a designated representative. The regulatory text we
are proposing appears at the end of this document.
[[Page 24733]]
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.
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, duration, and time-of-day of the special local regulation.
Vessel traffic would be able to safely transit around the proposed race
area, which would impact a small designated area in Wrangell Harbor for
8 hours. Moreover, the Coast Guard would issue a Broadcast Notice to
Mariners via VHF-FM marine channel 16 about the race area, and the rule
would allow vessels to seek permission to enter or transit through the
race 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 the
special local regulation area 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.
If you think that your business, organization, or governmental
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this rule would have
a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment (see
ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to what
degree this rule would economically affect it.
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 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 would 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 proposed 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 proposed rule does not have tribal implications under
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it would 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 proposed rule has implications for federalism or
Indian tribes, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.
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 proposed rule would 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 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 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. This proposed rule involves a special local regulation
lasting eight (8) hours that would prohibit entry or transit through
the area without obtaining permission from the COTP or a designated
representative. 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. A preliminary Record of
Environmental Consideration supporting this determination is available
in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES. We seek any comments or
information that may lead to the discovery of a significant
environmental impact from this proposed rule.
