Temporary final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary special local
regulation for navigable waters on the
Sacramento River. The special local
regulation is needed to protect
personnel, vessels, and the marine
environment from potential hazards
created by the Sacramento Ironman
Triathlon marine event. Entry of vessels
or persons into this zone is prohibited
unless specifically authorized by the
Captain of the Port Sector San
Francisco.
DATES: This rule is effective on October
24, 2021 from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m.

§ Section
COTP Captain of the Port

U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background, Purpose, and Legal
Basis
The Coast Guard is issuing this
temporary rule without prior notice and
E:\FR\FM\22OCR1.SGM
22OCR1
58574
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 202 / Friday, October 22, 2021 / Rules and Regulations
opportunity to comment pursuant to
authority under section 4(a) of the
Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision
authorizes an agency to issue a rule
without prior notice and opportunity to
comment when the agency for good
cause finds that those procedures are
‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to the public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that
good cause exists for not publishing a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because it is
impracticable. We must establish this
regulation by October 24, 2021 and lack
sufficient time to provide a reasonable
comment period and then consider
those comments before issuing this rule.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal
Register. Delaying the effective date of
this rule would be contrary to public
interest because immediate action is
needed to ensure the safety of the
participants and vessels during the
Sacramento Ironman Triathlon on
October 24, 2021.
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with RULES1
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
Captain of the Port Sector San Francisco
(COTP) has determined that potential
hazards associated with Sacramento
Ironman Triathlon on October 24, 2021,
will be a safety concern from Township
9 Park to the Sacramento River at Tower
Bridge for four hours. This rule is
needed to protect personnel, vessels,
and the marine environment in the
navigable waters within the special
local regulation while the event is
taking place.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a special local
regulation starting in the American
River from Township 9 Park to the
Sacramento River at Tower Bridge. The
safety zone will be in effect on October
24, 2021 from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. The
duration of the zone is intended to
protect participants, and the marine
environment in these navigable waters
while the Sacramento Ironman
Triathlon is taking place. No vessel or
person will be permitted to enter the
regulated area without obtaining
permission from the COTP or a
designated representative.
V. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this rule after
considering numerous statutes and
Executive orders related to rulemaking.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:20 Oct 21, 2021
Jkt 256001
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
from the requirements of Executive
Order 13771.
This regulatory action determination
is based on the size, location, duration,
and the time-of-day of the special local
regulation. This special local regulation
would impact a small designated area of
the American River and Sacramento
River for a short duration and vessel
traffic will be able to transit after the
time of the event. 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 00 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.
When the special local regulation is in
effect, vessel traffic can pass safely
around the regulated area. The maritime
public will be advised in advance of this
special local regulation via Broadcast
Notice to Mariners.
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
PO 00000
Frm 00016
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
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 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 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 will 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
will not result in such an expenditure,
E:\FR\FM\22OCR1.SGM
22OCR1
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 202 / Friday, October 22, 2021 / Rules and Regulations
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 a
special local regulation lasting only 4
hours that will prohibit entry within a
2 mile segment of the American River
and Sacramento River. It is categorically
excluded from further review under
paragraph [L61] of Appendix A, Table 1
of DHS Instruction Manual 023–01–
001–01, Rev. 1.
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.

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
The Coast Guard is issuing this
temporary rule without prior notice and
opportunity to comment pursuant to
authority under section 4(a) of the
Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5
U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision
authorizes an agency to issue a rule
without prior notice and opportunity to
comment when the agency for good
cause finds that those procedures are
‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to the public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that
good cause exists for not publishing a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because we
must establish this special local
regulation by October 23, 2021.
Delaying the effective date of this
regulation for a comment period to run
would be contrary to the public interest
and impractical because it would inhibit
the Coast Guard’s ability to protect
spectators and vessels from the potential
safety hazards associated with a marine
regatta.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal
Register. Delaying the effective date of
this regulation would be contrary to the
rule’s objectives of protecting the safety
of the public and property on the
navigable waters in the vicinity of the
regatta.
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
Captain of the Port Detroit (COTP) has
determined that potential hazards
associated with the Perrysburg Regatta
starting October 23, 2021, would be a
safety concern for anyone navigating
within the Maumee River, Toledo, OH.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a temporary

Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that good cause

publication in the Federal Register. Delaying the effective date of
this rule would be contrary to public interest because immediate action
is needed to ensure the safety of the participants and vessels during
the Sacramento Ironman Triathlon on October 24, 2021.
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 Captain of the Port Sector San
Francisco (COTP) has determined that potential hazards associated with
Sacramento Ironman Triathlon on October 24, 2021, will be a safety
concern from Township 9 Park to the Sacramento River at Tower Bridge
for four hours. This rule is needed to protect personnel, vessels, and
the marine environment in the navigable waters within the special local
regulation while the event is taking place.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a special local regulation starting in the
American River from Township 9 Park to the Sacramento River at Tower
Bridge. The safety zone will be in effect on October 24, 2021 from 6
a.m. to 10 a.m. The duration of the zone is intended to protect
participants, and the marine environment in these navigable waters
while the Sacramento Ironman Triathlon is taking place. No vessel or
person will be permitted to enter the regulated area without obtaining
permission from the COTP or a designated representative.
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
from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, duration, and the time-of-day of the special local
regulation. This special local regulation would impact a small
designated area of the American River and Sacramento River for a short
duration and vessel traffic will be able to transit after the time of
the event. 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 00 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.
When the special local regulation is in effect, vessel traffic can
pass safely around the regulated area. The maritime public will be
advised in advance of this special local regulation via Broadcast
Notice to Mariners.
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 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 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 will 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 will not result in
such an expenditure,
[[Page 58575]]
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 a
special local regulation lasting only 4 hours that will prohibit entry
within a 2 mile segment of the American River and Sacramento River. It
is categorically excluded from further review under paragraph [L61] of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, Rev. 1.
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.
