(c) Special local regulations. (1) The
COTP Maryland-National Capital
Region or PATCOM may forbid and
control the movement of all vessels and
persons, including event participants, in
the regulated area. When hailed or
signaled by an official patrol, a vessel or
person in the regulated area shall
immediately comply with the directions
given by the patrol. Failure to do so may
result in the Coast Guard expelling the
person or vessel from the area, issuing
a citation for failure to comply, or both.
The COTP Maryland-National Capital
Region or PATCOM may terminate the
event, or a participant’s operations at
any time the COTP Maryland-National
Capital Region or PATCOM believes it
necessary to do so for the protection of
life or property.
(2) Except for participants and vessels
already at berth, a person or vessel
within the regulated area at the start of
enforcement of this section must
immediately depart the regulated area.
(3) A spectator must contact the
PATCOM to request permission to
either enter or pass through the
regulated area. The PATCOM, and
official patrol vessels enforcing this
regulated area, can be contacted on
marine band radio VHF–FM channel 16
(156.8 MHz) and channel 22A (157.1
MHz). If permission is granted, the
spectator may enter the designated
Spectator Area or must pass directly
through the regulated area as instructed
by PATCOM. A vessel within the
regulated area must operate at safe
speed that minimizes wake. A spectator
vessel must not loiter within the
navigable channel while within the
regulated area.
(4) A person or vessel that desires to
transit, moor, or anchor within the
regulated area must first obtain
authorization from the COTP MarylandNational Capital Region or PATCOM. A
person or vessel seeking such
permission can contact the COTP
Maryland-National Capital Region at
telephone number 410–576–2693 or on
Marine Band Radio, VHF–FM channel
16 (156.8 MHz) or the PATCOM on
Marine Band Radio, VHF-FM channel
16 (156.8 MHz).
(5) The Coast Guard will publish a
notice in the Fifth Coast Guard District
Local Notice to Mariners and issue a
marine information broadcast on VHFFM marine band radio announcing
specific event date and times.
(d) Enforcement officials. The Coast
Guard may be assisted with marine
event patrol and enforcement of the
regulated area by other Federal, State,
and local agencies.

Final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard is adding,
deleting, and modifying the special
local regulations for annual recurring
marine events, safety zones for firework
displays, and swim events in the Coast
Guard Sector Northern New England
Captain of the Port Zone. When
enforced, these special local regulations
and safety zones will restrict vessels
from transiting regulated areas during
certain annually recurring events. The
special local regulations and safety
zones are intended to expedite public
notification and ensure the protection of
the maritime public and event
participants from the hazards associated
with certain marine events.
DATES: This rule is effective without
actual notice from June 28, 2019. For the
purposes of enforcement, actual notice
will be used from June 14, 2019 through
June 28, 2019.

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background, Purpose, and Legal
Basis
Swim events, fireworks displays, and
marine events are held on an annual
recurring basis on the navigable waters
within the Coast Guard Sector Northern
New England Captain of the Port
(COTP) Zone. The Coast Guard has
established special local regulations and
safety zones for some of these annual
recurring events on a case by case basis
to ensure the protection of the maritime
public and event participants from
potential hazards. In the past, the Coast
Guard has not received public
comments or concerns regarding the
impact to waterway traffic from
regulations associated with these
annually recurring events. Events were
either added or deleted to the table of
annual events based on their likelihood
to recur in subsequent years.
Additionally, minor changes to existing
events such as position, date, or title,
were made to ensure the accuracy of
event details.
On May 09, 2019 the Coast Guard
published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) titled Special Local
Regulations and Safety Zones; Recurring
Marine Events and Fireworks Displays
and Swim Events Held in the Coast
Guard Sector Northern New England
Captain of the Port Zone (84 FR 20307).
There we stated why we issued the
NPRM, and invited comments on our
proposed regulatory action. During the
comment period that ended on June 10,
2019, we received no comments.
We are issuing this rule under 5
U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds
that good cause exists for making it
effective less than 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register. The
comment period for the NPRM
associated with the Special Local
Regulations and Safety Zones; Recurring
Marine Events and Fireworks Displays
and Swim Events held in the Coast
Guard Sector Northern New England
Captain of the Port Zone expired on
June 10, 2019. The first events are
scheduled to occur June 15, 2019. Thus,
there is now insufficient time for a 30-

day effective period before the need to
enforce safety zones and special local
regulations that begin on June 15, 2019.
Delaying the enforcement of this safety
zone and special local regulations to
allow a 30-day effective period will be
impractical and contrary to the public
interest because it would inhibit the
Coast Guard’s ability to fulfill its
mission to keep the maritime public,
ports, and waterways safe.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard issues this
rulemaking under authority in 33 U.S.C.
1231. This rule updates the tables of
annual recurring events in the existing
regulation for the Coast Guard Sector
Northern New England COTP Zone. The
tables provide the event name, sponsor,
and type, as well as approximate times,
dates, and locations of the events.
Advanced public notification of specific
times, dates, regulated areas, and
enforcement periods for each event will
be provided through appropriate means,
which may include the Local Notice to
Mariners, Broadcast Notice to Mariners,
and a Notice of Enforcement published
in the Federal Register at least 30 days
prior to the event date. If an event does
not have a date and time listed in this
regulation, then the precise dates and
times of the enforcement period for that
event will be announced through a
Local Notice to Mariners and, if time
permits, a Notice of Enforcement in the
Federal Register.
IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes,
and the Rule
As noted above, we received no
comments on our NPRM published May
10, 2019. There are no changes in the
regulatory text of this rule from the
proposed rule in the NPRM.
The Coast Guard amends 33 CFR
100.120 ‘‘Special Local Regulations;
Marine Events Held in the Coast Guard
Sector Northern New England Captain
of the Port Zone’’ by updating the
details of three events, deleting two
events, and adding on to the TABLE
§ 100.120. The updates to the TABLE to
§ 100.120: (1) 5.1 Tall Ships Visiting
Portsmouth will become a one day event
rather than a four day event; (2) 6.3
Windjammer Days Parade of Ships will
become 6.3 Gathering of the Fleet; and
(3) updates position for 8.6 Multiple
Sclerosis Regatta. The events deleted
from the TABLE to § 100.120 will be: (1)
7.7 Yarmouth Clam Festival Paddle
Race and (2) 7.8 Maine Windjammer
Lighthouse Parade. The event added to
the table is the 7.8 Harpswell Lobster
Boat Races.
The Coast Guard amends 33 CFR
165.171 ‘‘Safety Zones for fireworks

Jkt 247001
displays and swim events held in Coast
Guard Sector Northern New England
Captain of the Port Zone’’ by updating
the details of seven events from the
TABLE to § 165.171. This rule proposes
the following updates: (1) 7.3 Camden
3rd of July Fireworks will become 7.3
Camden 4th of July Fireworks; (2) 9.1
Windjammer Festival Fireworks will
become 9.1 Camden Windjammer
Festival Fireworks; (3) updates position
of 7.8 Ellis Short Sand Park Trustee
Fireworks; (4) updates position of 7.9
Hampton Beach 4th of July Fireworks;
(5) updates position of 7.13 Portland
Harbor 4th of July Fireworks; (6)
updates date of 8.9 Lake Champlain
Swimming Race and the safety area
around swimmers; and (7) changes
name and location of event 8.8 from
Challenge Maine Triathlon to Ironman
70.3 Maine.
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 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 rule has not
been designated a ‘‘significant
regulatory action,’’ under Executive
Order 12866. Accordingly, the rule 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 each regulated area.
We are not adding any new special local
regulations, rather we are updating
existing regulations and removing
obsolete events which have not been
held for the past three years or which
the sponsors indicate they have no
intention to continue. Dates and
coordinates have been updated to more
accurately reflect the event. While we
are primarily updating and removing
safety zones, t we are adding one safety
zone for a swim event. However, this
new swim event is only one day long in
August and will only impact a small
designated area of the waterway for a
few hours. Moreover, the Coast Guard
PO 00000
Frm 00032
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
will issue a Broadcast Notice to
Mariners via VHF–FM marine channel
16 about the zone, and the rule would
allow 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 received no comments
from the Small Business Administration
on this rulemaking. The Coast Guard
certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this
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 safety
zone may be small entities, for the
reasons stated in section IV.A above,
this 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 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 would not call for a new
collection of information under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501–3520).

28JNR1
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 125 / Friday, June 28, 2019 / Rules and Regulations
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 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 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 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 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 special
local regulations for various one day
marine events and safety zones for
fireworks displays and one day
swimming events. 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
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.
30889
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.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is adding, deleting, and modifying the special
local regulations for annual recurring marine events, safety zones for
firework displays, and swim events in the Coast Guard Sector Northern
New England Captain of the Port Zone. When enforced, these special
local regulations and safety zones will restrict vessels from
transiting regulated areas during certain annually recurring events.
The special local regulations and safety zones are intended to expedite
public notification and ensure the protection of the maritime public
and event participants from the hazards associated with certain marine
events.
DATES: This rule is effective without actual notice from June 28, 2019.
For the purposes of enforcement, actual notice will be used from June
14, 2019 through June 28, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Table of Abbreviations
CFR Code of Federal Regulations
COTP Captain of the Port
DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register
MEDOT Maine Department of Transportation
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec. Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis
Swim events, fireworks displays, and marine events are held on an
annual recurring basis on the navigable waters within the Coast Guard
Sector Northern New England Captain of the Port (COTP) Zone. The Coast
Guard has established special local regulations and safety zones for
some of these annual recurring events on a case by case basis to ensure
the protection of the maritime public and event participants from
potential hazards. In the past, the Coast Guard has not received public
comments or concerns regarding the impact to waterway traffic from
regulations associated with these annually recurring events. Events
were either added or deleted to the table of annual events based on
their likelihood to recur in subsequent years. Additionally, minor
changes to existing events such as position, date, or title, were made
to ensure the accuracy of event details.
On May 09, 2019 the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) titled Special Local Regulations and Safety Zones;
Recurring Marine Events and Fireworks Displays and Swim Events Held in
the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England Captain of the Port Zone
(84 FR 20307). There we stated why we issued the NPRM, and invited
comments on our proposed regulatory action. During the comment period
that ended on June 10, 2019, we received no comments.
We are issuing this rule under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard
finds that good cause exists for making it effective less than 30 days
after publication in the Federal Register. The comment period for the
NPRM associated with the Special Local Regulations and Safety Zones;
Recurring Marine Events and Fireworks Displays and Swim Events held in
the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England Captain of the Port Zone
expired on June 10, 2019. The first events are scheduled to occur June
15, 2019. Thus, there is now insufficient time for a 30-
[[Page 30888]]
day effective period before the need to enforce safety zones and
special local regulations that begin on June 15, 2019. Delaying the
enforcement of this safety zone and special local regulations to allow
a 30-day effective period will be impractical and contrary to the
public interest because it would inhibit the Coast Guard's ability to
fulfill its mission to keep the maritime public, ports, and waterways
safe.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard issues this rulemaking under authority in 33 U.S.C.
1231. This rule updates the tables of annual recurring events in the
existing regulation for the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England
COTP Zone. The tables provide the event name, sponsor, and type, as
well as approximate times, dates, and locations of the events. Advanced
public notification of specific times, dates, regulated areas, and
enforcement periods for each event will be provided through appropriate
means, which may include the Local Notice to Mariners, Broadcast Notice
to Mariners, and a Notice of Enforcement published in the Federal
Register at least 30 days prior to the event date. If an event does not
have a date and time listed in this regulation, then the precise dates
and times of the enforcement period for that event will be announced
through a Local Notice to Mariners and, if time permits, a Notice of
Enforcement in the Federal Register.
IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule
As noted above, we received no comments on our NPRM published May
10, 2019. There are no changes in the regulatory text of this rule from
the proposed rule in the NPRM.
The Coast Guard amends 33 CFR 100.120 ``Special Local Regulations;
Marine Events Held in the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England
Captain of the Port Zone'' by updating the details of three events,
deleting two events, and adding on to the TABLE Sec. 100.120. The
updates to the TABLE to Sec. 100.120: (1) 5.1 Tall Ships Visiting
Portsmouth will become a one day event rather than a four day event;
(2) 6.3 Windjammer Days Parade of Ships will become 6.3 Gathering of
the Fleet; and (3) updates position for 8.6 Multiple Sclerosis Regatta.
The events deleted from the TABLE to Sec. 100.120 will be: (1) 7.7
Yarmouth Clam Festival Paddle Race and (2) 7.8 Maine Windjammer
Lighthouse Parade. The event added to the table is the 7.8 Harpswell
Lobster Boat Races.
The Coast Guard amends 33 CFR 165.171 ``Safety Zones for fireworks
displays and swim events held in Coast Guard Sector Northern New
England Captain of the Port Zone'' by updating the details of seven
events from the TABLE to Sec. 165.171. This rule proposes the
following updates: (1) 7.3 Camden 3rd of July Fireworks will become 7.3
Camden 4th of July Fireworks; (2) 9.1 Windjammer Festival Fireworks
will become 9.1 Camden Windjammer Festival Fireworks; (3) updates
position of 7.8 Ellis Short Sand Park Trustee Fireworks; (4) updates
position of 7.9 Hampton Beach 4th of July Fireworks; (5) updates
position of 7.13 Portland Harbor 4th of July Fireworks; (6) updates
date of 8.9 Lake Champlain Swimming Race and the safety area around
swimmers; and (7) changes name and location of event 8.8 from Challenge
Maine Triathlon to Ironman 70.3 Maine.
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 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 rule has not been
designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order
12866. Accordingly, the rule 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 each regulated area. We are not
adding any new special local regulations, rather we are updating
existing regulations and removing obsolete events which have not been
held for the past three years or which the sponsors indicate they have
no intention to continue. Dates and coordinates have been updated to
more accurately reflect the event. While we are primarily updating and
removing safety zones, t we are adding one safety zone for a swim
event. However, this new swim event is only one day long in August and
will only impact a small designated area of the waterway for a few
hours. Moreover, the Coast Guard will issue a Broadcast Notice to
Mariners via VHF-FM marine channel 16 about the zone, and the rule
would allow 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 received no comments from the Small Business
Administration on this rulemaking. The Coast Guard certifies under 5
U.S.C. 605(b) that this 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
safety zone may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section
IV.A above, this 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 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 would not call for a new collection of information under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).
[[Page 30889]]
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 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 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 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 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
special local regulations for various one day marine events and safety
zones for fireworks displays and one day swimming events. 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 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.
