Table of Abbreviations CADFW California Department of Fish and Wildlife Caltrans California Department of Transportation CFR Code of Federal Regulations DHS Department of Homeland Security FR Federal Register OMB Office of Management and Budget NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Advance, Supplemental) § Section U.S.C. United States Code II. Background Information and Regulatory History BILLING CODE 3810–FF–P ACTION: openings on the waterway. It will reduce unnecessary staffing of the drawbridge during periods of navigational inactivity while continuing to meet the reasonable needs of navigation. The schedule change would require vessels to provide a four-hour advance notification for drawspan opening. On October 25, 2021, the Coast Guard published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) entitled ‘‘Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Old River, Between Victoria Island and Byron Tract, CA’’ in the Federal Register (86 FR 58827). Further, the Commander (dpw), Eleventh Coast Guard District, mailed/emailed notification of the NPRM to 104 interested parties that may navigate Old River and published a notification of the NPRM in the Local Notice to Mariners, No. 43/21. The Coast Guard received no comments on this proposed rule. On May 3, 2021, the Coast Guard published a temporary deviation from the operating schedule, entitled ‘‘Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Old River, Between Victoria Island and Byron Tract, CA’’ in the Federal Register (86 FR 23278). The May 3, 2021 proposed temporary deviation to the bridge operating schedule was employed to determine whether a PO 00000 Frm 00022 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 permanent change was warranted to allow the draw to operate as follows: The draw of the California Department of Transportation (Route 4) highway bridge, mile 14.8 between Victoria Island and Byron Tract, shall open on signal if at least four hours notice is given to the drawtender at the Rio Vista bridge across the Sacramento River, mile 12.8. One comment from the Contra Costa County Office of the Sheriff was received during the temporary deviation period and was addressed in the NPRM. III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority 33 U.S.C. 499. The Caltrans (Route 4) highway bridge, across Old River, mile 14.8, between Victoria Island and Byron Tract, California is a swing span drawbridge. It provides a horizontal clearance of 98 feet and a vertical clearance of 12.7 feet above mean high water in the closed-to-navigation position with unlimited vertical clearance when fully opened. The Caltrans (Route 4) highway bridge is currently governed by 33 CFR 117.183, which requires the draw to open on signal from May 1 through October 31 from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., and from November 1 through April 30 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. At all other times, the draw opens on signal if at least four hours notice is given to the drawtender at the Rio Vista bridge across the Sacramento River, mile 12.8. Due to infrequent calls for drawbridge openings, Caltrans has requested a fourhour notification year-round for drawbridge openings at this location. A four-hour notification will allow Caltrans to use personnel more efficiently and reduce unnecessary staffing of the drawbridge during periods of navigational inactivity while continuing to meet the reasonable needs of navigation on the waterway. There are approximately 10 marinas on Old River and nearby waterways, with two marinas upriver from the bridge. From 2011 through June 2020, the swing span opened for vessels 474 times, an average of 4.27 openings per month. Most openings have been for vessels operated by the CADFW (58%), followed by recreational vessels (22%), towboat-vessel assistance (9%), and tug and barge units (6%). Law enforcement and search and rescue vessels also used the waterway. IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes and the Final Rule The preceding NPRM the Coast Guard issued provided a comment period of 60 days and no comments were received. E:\FR\FM\22FER1.SGM 22FER1
