SUMMARY:
AGENCY:
The Coast Guard will not
enforce the security zones for Seattle’s
Seafair Fleet Week Moving Vessels in
Puget Sound, WA in July and August
2020. The Captain of the Port Sector
Puget Sound has determined that since
the event is cancelled, enforcement of
this regulation is not necessary.
DATES: The Coast Guard does not plan
to enforce regulations in 33 CFR
165.1333 in July and August 2020.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If
you have questions about this
notification of non-enforcement, call or
email CWO2 William E. Martinez,
Sector Puget Sound Waterways
Management Division, U.S. Coast
Guard; telephone 206–217–6051, email
SectorPugetSoundWWM@uscg.mil.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coast
Guard normally enforces the security
zones in 33 CFR 165.1333 for the Seattle
Seafair Fleet Week moving vessels and
parade of ships. This event is held
annually during the parade of ships
between July 25 and August 14. This
year, the event organizers cancelled
Seafair and Fleet Week. Therefore, the
Coast Guard does not plan to enforce 33
CFR 165.1333, in July and August 2020.

II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
Fireworks displays in 33 CFR
165.1191 are held annually on the
navigable waters within the Captain of
the Port San Francisco (COTP) zone.
After conducting a review of the
fireworks displays listed in 33 CFR
165.1191, the specifications for eight of
the events listed in the table no longer
accurately reflect the actual event
parameters, and three annual fireworks
displays are not listed in the table. In
response, on March 17, 2020, the Coast
Guard published a notice of proposed
rulemaking (NPRM) titled ‘‘Safety
Zones; Northern California and Lake
Tahoe Area Annual Fireworks Events,
San Francisco, CA’’ (85 FR 15082).
There, we stated why we issued the
NPRM, and invited comments on our
proposed regulatory action related to
these fireworks displays. During the
comment period that ended May 18,
2020, we received one comment.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034
(previously 33 U.S.C. 1231). The COTP
has determined that potential hazards
associated with the fireworks used in
these annual displays would be a safety
concern for any unauthorized vessels or
persons within the safety zones during
the respective fireworks displays. The
purpose of this rule is to ensure safety
on the navigable waters within the
safety zones for the fireworks displays
before, during, and after the scheduled
events.
IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes,
and the Rule
As noted above, we received one
comment on our NPRM published
March 17, 2020. The comment
requested an explanation for the
variance between safety zone sizes for
different fireworks displays and
inquired about whether or not current
COVID–19 public health orders were
taken into effect when assessing the
costs and benefits of this regulation.
Each fireworks display has different
setup and display characteristics,
designated by the fireworks display
sponsor. To determine the size of the
safety zone used for each fireworks
display, the Coast Guard follows
guidelines established by the National
Fire Protection Association in relation
to the largest shell size used for each
fireworks display. In addition, safety
zone characteristics also vary among
displays depending on the pyrotechnics
launch site. Fireworks displays that are
E:\FR\FM\09JYR1.SGM
09JYR1
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES
41190
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
launched from a barge require an initial
100-foot safety zone beginning when the
barge is being loaded with pyrotechnics.
In the event of a barge-based fireworks
display, the safety zone will increase
from 100 feet to full size upon
commencement of the fireworks
display. The safety zones in this
regulation have been thoroughly
reviewed to ensure that proper distance
is maintained from the fireworks launch
site for spectator and boating safety.
The Coast Guard is amending this
regulation to provide for public safety
from the hazards associated with
fireworks displays. While this
regulation amendment is occurring
during the response to COVID–19, these
changes are necessary based on
historical event details. The Coast Guard
is aware that public health officials
currently impose safety requirements
intended to mitigate the spread of the
coronavirus. However, a Coast Guard
safety zone is not the correct tool to use
to address social distancing, because a
safety zone restricts movement into and
within a defined zone, but does not
control the movement of people or
vessels outside of that zone. Changing
the sizes of these safety zones would not
have any effect on spectators’ proximity
to one another outside of the safety
zone. Additionally, this regulation
amends and adds safety zone details for
annual fireworks displays continuing
indefinitely, so the details must be
accurate for these displays under
normal circumstances, otherwise this
regulation will not be useful in years to
come. If the event sponsor or local
government decides not to hold the
event, the safety zones would not be
enforced. Overall, the Coast Guard has
assessed the costs and benefits
associated with this rule, and does not
find that the current response to
COVID–19 changes that assessment.
There are three changes to the
regulatory text of this rule from the
proposed rule in the NPRM that are
unrelated to the concerns raised by the
commenter. The changes to the
proposed text are made to item 22
‘‘Monte Foundation Fireworks,’’ item 25
‘‘Sacramento New Years Eve
Fireworks,’’ and item 31 ‘‘Benicia
Fourth of July Fireworks,’’ and they are
discussed later in this section with the
other changes to item 22, item 25, and
item 31.
The COTP is amending Table 1 to
§ 165.1191. Eight fireworks displays will
be amended, and three fireworks
displays will be added.
The fireworks events being amended
are listed numerically in Table 1 of this
section as item 7, ‘‘San Francisco
Independence Day Fireworks,’’ item 8,
VerDate Sep<11>2014
15:50 Jul 08, 2020
Jkt 250001
‘‘Fourth of July Fireworks, Berkeley
Marina,’’ item 9, ‘‘Fourth of July
Fireworks, City of Richmond,’’ item 19,
‘‘Red, White, and Tahoe Blue Fireworks,
Incline Village, NV,’’ item 22, ‘‘Monte
Foundation Fireworks,’’ item 24, ‘‘San
Francisco New Years Eve Fireworks,’’
item 25, ‘‘Sacramento New Years Eve
Fireworks,’’ and item 27, ‘‘Feast of
Lanterns Fireworks.’’
The display locations for items 7, 8,
9, 25, and 27 no longer accurately reflect
the display locations for the events, so
this rule inserts updated location
descriptions into the table.
The display names of items 19, 24,
and 25 will be updated. Item 19, ‘‘Red,
White, and Tahoe Blue Fireworks,
Incline Village, NV,’’ will be renamed
‘‘Incline Village Independence Day
Fireworks.’’ Item 24, ‘‘San Francisco
New Years Eve Fireworks,’’ and item 25,
‘‘Sacramento New Years Eve
Fireworks,’’ will be updated to include
an apostrophe in ‘‘New Year’s Eve.’’
The display dates listed in items 22,
24, 25, and 27 do not accurately reflect
the display dates for the fireworks
displays, so this rule will update them
as follows. Item 22, ‘‘Monte Foundation
Fireworks,’’ currently states the date as
the second Saturday in October, but the
fireworks have occurred on the second
Saturday or Sunday in October. Item 24,
‘‘San Francisco New Years Eve
Fireworks,’’ currently states it occurs on
New Year’s Eve, but the event has
typically lasted into the early hours of
New Year’s Day, so we are adding
January 1st as a display date as well to
be more accurate. A change to item 25,
‘‘Sacramento New Years Eve
Fireworks,’’ not proposed in the NPRM
will improve the accuracy of the date by
deleting ‘‘New Years Eve’’ from the date
description and adding January 1st to
the display date because the display has
typically lasted into the early hours of
New Year’s Day. Item 27, ‘‘Feast of
Lanterns Fireworks,’’ currently states it
occurs on the last Saturday of July, but
due to the variance in the event dates,
we are amending the dates to say a
Saturday or Sunday in July. As stated in
§ 165.1191(a), the Coast Guard will
provide exact dates, times, and other
details concerning the fireworks and
associated safety zones listed in table 1
to § 165.1191 in the Local Notice to
Mariners at least 20 days prior to the
event.
The Regulated Area description and
Sponsor description for item 22, ‘‘Monte
Foundation Fireworks,’’ will be revised.
A change to item 22 not proposed in the
NPRM will improve the accuracy of the
regulated area by noting the regulated
area will consist of a 1,000 foot radius
around the launch site, instead of
PO 00000
Frm 00022
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
describing it as a 1,000 foot radius safety
zone. Additionally, this rule corrects the
sponsor name for this regulated area
from ‘‘Monte Foundation Fireworks’’ to
the ‘‘Monte Foundation.’’
This rule adds three safety zones
covering three reoccurring fireworks
events to Table 1 in 33 CFR 165.1191.
The three new fireworks events will be
listed in Table 1 of this section as item
31, ‘‘Fourth of July Fireworks, City of
Benicia,’’ item 32, ‘‘Fourth of July
Fireworks, City of Vallejo,’’ and item 33
‘‘Berkeley Winter on the Waterfront
Fireworks.’’ All three of these fireworks
displays occurred in previous years
2017, 2018, and 2019. Both the Benicia,
CA fireworks and the City of Vallejo, CA
fireworks will occur annually on the
Fourth of July. The Berkeley, CA
fireworks displays will occur annually
on the second Saturday or Sunday in
December. The Coast Guard believes it
is beneficial to include these additional
fireworks displays in the list of
reoccurring permanent regulations to
increase public awareness of when
safety zones will be enforced in these
marine areas. No vessel or person will
be permitted to enter the safety zones
without obtaining permission from the
COTP or a designated representative.
The Regulated Area description for
item 31, ‘‘Benicia Fourth of July
Fireworks,’’ will be revised to include
one change from the regulatory text of
the NPRM. The accuracy of the
Regulated Area description will be
improved by noting the regulated area
will consist of a 1,000 foot radius
around the launch site, instead of
describing it as a 1,000 foot radius safety
zone.
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, this rule has
not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), and
pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt

09JYR1
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 132 / Thursday, July 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES
from the requirements of Executive
Order 13771.
This regulatory action determination
is based on the limited duration and
narrowly tailored geographic areas of
the safety zones. Although this rule
restricts access to the waters
encompassed by the safety zones, the
effect of this rule will not be significant
because the local waterway users will be
notified via public Notice to Mariners to
ensure the safety zones will result in
minimum impact. The entities most
likely to be affected are waterfront
facilities, commercial vessels, and
pleasure craft engaged in recreational
activities.
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 will 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
zones may be small entities, for the
reasons stated in section IV.A above,
this rule will not have a significant
economic impact on any vessel owner
or operator for the following reasons: (i)
This rule will encompass only a small
portion of each affected waterway for a
limited period of time for each fireworks
event, and (ii) the maritime public will
be advised in advance of these safety
zones via Notice to Mariners.
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 call or email the
person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section.
Small businesses may send comments
on the actions of Federal employees
VerDate Sep<11>2014
15:50 Jul 08, 2020
Jkt 250001
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 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 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 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.
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 rule under
Department of Homeland Security
Directive 023–01, Rev. 1, associated
implementing instructions, and
Environmental Planning COMDTINST
5090.1 (series), 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 safety
zones of limited sizes and durations. It
is categorically excluded from further
review under paragraph L60(a) of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction
Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 1. A
Record of Environmental Consideration
supporting this determination is
available in the docket. For instructions
on locating the docket, see the
ADDRESSES section of this preamble.
G. Protest Activities
The Coast Guard respects the First
Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to call or email 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Table of Abbreviations
CFR Code of Federal Regulations
COTP Captain of the Port San Francisco
DHS Department of Homeland Security
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec. Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background Information and Regulatory History
Fireworks displays in 33 CFR 165.1191 are held annually on the
navigable waters within the Captain of the Port San Francisco (COTP)
zone. After conducting a review of the fireworks displays listed in 33
CFR 165.1191, the specifications for eight of the events listed in the
table no longer accurately reflect the actual event parameters, and
three annual fireworks displays are not listed in the table. In
response, on March 17, 2020, the Coast Guard published a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) titled ``Safety Zones; Northern California
and Lake Tahoe Area Annual Fireworks Events, San Francisco, CA'' (85 FR
15082). There, we stated why we issued the NPRM, and invited comments
on our proposed regulatory action related to these fireworks displays.
During the comment period that ended May 18, 2020, we received one
comment.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 46 U.S.C.
70034 (previously 33 U.S.C. 1231). The COTP has determined that
potential hazards associated with the fireworks used in these annual
displays would be a safety concern for any unauthorized vessels or
persons within the safety zones during the respective fireworks
displays. The purpose of this rule is to ensure safety on the navigable
waters within the safety zones for the fireworks displays before,
during, and after the scheduled events.
IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule
As noted above, we received one comment on our NPRM published March
17, 2020. The comment requested an explanation for the variance between
safety zone sizes for different fireworks displays and inquired about
whether or not current COVID-19 public health orders were taken into
effect when assessing the costs and benefits of this regulation.
Each fireworks display has different setup and display
characteristics, designated by the fireworks display sponsor. To
determine the size of the safety zone used for each fireworks display,
the Coast Guard follows guidelines established by the National Fire
Protection Association in relation to the largest shell size used for
each fireworks display. In addition, safety zone characteristics also
vary among displays depending on the pyrotechnics launch site.
Fireworks displays that are
[[Page 41190]]
launched from a barge require an initial 100-foot safety zone beginning
when the barge is being loaded with pyrotechnics. In the event of a
barge-based fireworks display, the safety zone will increase from 100
feet to full size upon commencement of the fireworks display. The
safety zones in this regulation have been thoroughly reviewed to ensure
that proper distance is maintained from the fireworks launch site for
spectator and boating safety.
The Coast Guard is amending this regulation to provide for public
safety from the hazards associated with fireworks displays. While this
regulation amendment is occurring during the response to COVID-19,
these changes are necessary based on historical event details. The
Coast Guard is aware that public health officials currently impose
safety requirements intended to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus.
However, a Coast Guard safety zone is not the correct tool to use to
address social distancing, because a safety zone restricts movement
into and within a defined zone, but does not control the movement of
people or vessels outside of that zone. Changing the sizes of these
safety zones would not have any effect on spectators' proximity to one
another outside of the safety zone. Additionally, this regulation
amends and adds safety zone details for annual fireworks displays
continuing indefinitely, so the details must be accurate for these
displays under normal circumstances, otherwise this regulation will not
be useful in years to come. If the event sponsor or local government
decides not to hold the event, the safety zones would not be enforced.
Overall, the Coast Guard has assessed the costs and benefits associated
with this rule, and does not find that the current response to COVID-19
changes that assessment.
There are three changes to the regulatory text of this rule from
the proposed rule in the NPRM that are unrelated to the concerns raised
by the commenter. The changes to the proposed text are made to item 22
``Monte Foundation Fireworks,'' item 25 ``Sacramento New Years Eve
Fireworks,'' and item 31 ``Benicia Fourth of July Fireworks,'' and they
are discussed later in this section with the other changes to item 22,
item 25, and item 31.
The COTP is amending Table 1 to Sec. 165.1191. Eight fireworks
displays will be amended, and three fireworks displays will be added.
The fireworks events being amended are listed numerically in Table
1 of this section as item 7, ``San Francisco Independence Day
Fireworks,'' item 8, ``Fourth of July Fireworks, Berkeley Marina,''
item 9, ``Fourth of July Fireworks, City of Richmond,'' item 19, ``Red,
White, and Tahoe Blue Fireworks, Incline Village, NV,'' item 22,
``Monte Foundation Fireworks,'' item 24, ``San Francisco New Years Eve
Fireworks,'' item 25, ``Sacramento New Years Eve Fireworks,'' and item
27, ``Feast of Lanterns Fireworks.''
The display locations for items 7, 8, 9, 25, and 27 no longer
accurately reflect the display locations for the events, so this rule
inserts updated location descriptions into the table.
The display names of items 19, 24, and 25 will be updated. Item 19,
``Red, White, and Tahoe Blue Fireworks, Incline Village, NV,'' will be
renamed ``Incline Village Independence Day Fireworks.'' Item 24, ``San
Francisco New Years Eve Fireworks,'' and item 25, ``Sacramento New
Years Eve Fireworks,'' will be updated to include an apostrophe in
``New Year's Eve.''
The display dates listed in items 22, 24, 25, and 27 do not
accurately reflect the display dates for the fireworks displays, so
this rule will update them as follows. Item 22, ``Monte Foundation
Fireworks,'' currently states the date as the second Saturday in
October, but the fireworks have occurred on the second Saturday or
Sunday in October. Item 24, ``San Francisco New Years Eve Fireworks,''
currently states it occurs on New Year's Eve, but the event has
typically lasted into the early hours of New Year's Day, so we are
adding January 1st as a display date as well to be more accurate. A
change to item 25, ``Sacramento New Years Eve Fireworks,'' not proposed
in the NPRM will improve the accuracy of the date by deleting ``New
Years Eve'' from the date description and adding January 1st to the
display date because the display has typically lasted into the early
hours of New Year's Day. Item 27, ``Feast of Lanterns Fireworks,''
currently states it occurs on the last Saturday of July, but due to the
variance in the event dates, we are amending the dates to say a
Saturday or Sunday in July. As stated in Sec. 165.1191(a), the Coast
Guard will provide exact dates, times, and other details concerning the
fireworks and associated safety zones listed in table 1 to Sec.
165.1191 in the Local Notice to Mariners at least 20 days prior to the
event.
The Regulated Area description and Sponsor description for item 22,
``Monte Foundation Fireworks,'' will be revised. A change to item 22
not proposed in the NPRM will improve the accuracy of the regulated
area by noting the regulated area will consist of a 1,000 foot radius
around the launch site, instead of describing it as a 1,000 foot radius
safety zone. Additionally, this rule corrects the sponsor name for this
regulated area from ``Monte Foundation Fireworks'' to the ``Monte
Foundation.''
This rule adds three safety zones covering three reoccurring
fireworks events to Table 1 in 33 CFR 165.1191. The three new fireworks
events will be listed in Table 1 of this section as item 31, ``Fourth
of July Fireworks, City of Benicia,'' item 32, ``Fourth of July
Fireworks, City of Vallejo,'' and item 33 ``Berkeley Winter on the
Waterfront Fireworks.'' All three of these fireworks displays occurred
in previous years 2017, 2018, and 2019. Both the Benicia, CA fireworks
and the City of Vallejo, CA fireworks will occur annually on the Fourth
of July. The Berkeley, CA fireworks displays will occur annually on the
second Saturday or Sunday in December. The Coast Guard believes it is
beneficial to include these additional fireworks displays in the list
of reoccurring permanent regulations to increase public awareness of
when safety zones will be enforced in these marine areas. No vessel or
person will be permitted to enter the safety zones without obtaining
permission from the COTP or a designated representative.
The Regulated Area description for item 31, ``Benicia Fourth of
July Fireworks,'' will be revised to include one change from the
regulatory text of the NPRM. The accuracy of the Regulated Area
description will be improved by noting the regulated area will consist
of a 1,000 foot radius around the launch site, instead of describing it
as a 1,000 foot radius safety zone.
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, this rule has not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt
[[Page 41191]]
from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
This regulatory action determination is based on the limited
duration and narrowly tailored geographic areas of the safety zones.
Although this rule restricts access to the waters encompassed by the
safety zones, the effect of this rule will not be significant because
the local waterway users will be notified via public Notice to Mariners
to ensure the safety zones will result in minimum impact. The entities
most likely to be affected are waterfront facilities, commercial
vessels, and pleasure craft engaged in recreational activities.
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 will 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 zones may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section
IV.A above, this rule will not have a significant economic impact on
any vessel owner or operator for the following reasons: (i) This rule
will encompass only a small portion of each affected waterway for a
limited period of time for each fireworks event, and (ii) the maritime
public will be advised in advance of these safety zones via Notice to
Mariners.
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
call or email 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 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 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 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.
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 rule under Department of Homeland Security
Directive 023-01, Rev. 1, associated implementing instructions, and
Environmental Planning COMDTINST 5090.1 (series), 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 safety
zones of limited sizes and durations. It is categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph L60(a) of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS
Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, Rev. 1. A Record of Environmental
Consideration supporting this determination is available in the docket.
For instructions on locating the docket, see the ADDRESSES section of
this preamble.
G. Protest Activities
The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to call or email 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.
