Executive Order FR Federal Register MDOT Mississippi Department of Transportation OMB Office of Management and Budget Pub. L. Public Law NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking § Section U.S.C. United States Code II. Background, Purpose and Legal Basis MDOT has requested to change the operating requirements for the I–110 bascule bridge across the Back Bay of Biloxi, mile 3.0, Biloxi, Harrison County, Mississippi. This bridge currently opens according to 33 CFR part 117.675(a) and opens on signal if at least six hour notice is given. MDOT has requested that on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day the bridge will open on signal if at least 12 hour notice is given. At this bridge location the waterway is used by small commercial, recreational and fishing vessels. From 2014 through 2017 this bridge did not open for vessels on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. The bridge has a vertical clearance of 60’ above mean high water in the closed to vessel position. Requiring a 12 hour notice to open provides a reasonable ability to use the waterway. The Coast Guard is issuing this NPRM under authority 33 U.S.C. 499. III. Discussion of Proposed Rule The Coast Guard’s decision to promulgate a drawbridge regulation depends primarily upon the effect of the proposed rule on navigation to assure that the rule provides for the reasonable needs of navigation after consideration of the impact to the public. The Coast Guard must ensure that bridges across navigable waters do not unreasonably obstruct waterway traffic and at the same time provide for the reasonable needs of land traffic. Drawbridge operations must balance the needs of vessel, vehicle, rail, pedestrian, and recreational traffic in the overall public interest. Since this bridge has not opened for vessel traffic over a four year period on these federal holidays the Coast Guard proposes that it is reasonable for vessels to provide a 12 hour notice to open the drawbridge. We have not identified any PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 impacts on marine navigation with this proposed rule. Additionally the bridge is required to open for emergencies according to 33 CFR 117.31. 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 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 ability that vessels can still open the draw and transit given advance notice. Those vessels with a vertical clearance requirement of less than 60 feet above mean high water may transit the bridge at any time. Additionally according to 33 CFR 117.31 (b) the drawtender shall take all reasonable measures to have the draw opened, regardless of the operating schedule of the draw, for passage of certain vessels during emergency situations. We believe this proposed change to the drawbridge operation regulations at 33 CFR 117.675(a) will meet the reasonable needs of navigation. 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. The bridge provides a 60 foot vertical clearance at mean high water that should accommodate most present E:\FR\FM\13MYP1.SGM 13MYP1
