Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 160 / Friday, August 19, 2022 / Rules and Regulations
collection requirements or approval
related to the standard.
I. Environmental Considerations
The Commission’s regulations
provide a categorical exclusion for the
Commission’s rules from any
requirement to prepare an
environmental assessment or an
environmental impact statement where
they ‘‘have little or no potential for
affecting the human environment.’’ 16
CFR 1021.5(c)(2). This rule falls within
the categorical exclusion, so no
environmental assessment or
environmental impact statement is
required.

J. Preemption
Section 26(a) of the CPSA provides
that where a consumer product safety
standard is in effect and applies to a
product, no state or political
subdivision of a state may either
establish or continue in effect a
requirement dealing with the same risk
of injury unless the state requirement is
identical to the federal standard. 15
U.S.C. 2075(a). Section 26(c) of the
CPSA also provides that states or
political subdivisions of states may
apply to CPSC for an exemption from
this preemption under certain
circumstances. Section 104(b) of the
CPSIA deems rules issued under that
provision ‘‘consumer product safety
standards.’’ Therefore, once a rule
issued under section 104 of the CPSIA
takes effect, it will preempt in
accordance with section 26(a) of the
CPSA.
K. Effective Date
Under the procedure set forth in
section 104(b)(4)(B) of the CPSIA, when
a voluntary standards organization
revises a standard that the Commission
adopted as a mandatory standard, the
revision becomes the CPSC standard
within 180 days of notification to the
Commission, unless the Commission
timely notifies the standards
organization that it has determined that
the revision does not improve the safety
of the product, or the Commission sets
a later date in the Federal Register. 15
U.S.C. 2056a(b)(4)(B). The Commission
is taking neither of those actions with
respect to the standard for sling carriers.
Therefore, ASTM F2907–22 will take
effect as the new mandatory standard
for sling carriers on November 19, 2022,
180 days after May 23, 2022, when the
Commission received notice of the
revision.
L. Congressional Review Act
The Congressional Review Act (CRA;
5 U.S.C. 801–808) states that before a
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:42 Aug 18, 2022
Jkt 256001
rule may take effect, the agency issuing
the rule must submit the rule, and
certain related information, to each
House of Congress and the Comptroller
General. 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1). The CRA
submission must indicate whether the
rule is a ‘‘major rule.’’ The CRA states
that the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs determines whether a
rule qualifies as a ‘‘major rule.’’
Pursuant to the CRA, this rule does
not qualify as a ‘‘major rule,’’ as defined
in 5 U.S.C. 804(2). To comply with the
CRA, CPSC will submit the required
information to each House of Congress
and the Comptroller General.
(i) In addition to complying with
section 5.7.2 of ASTM F2907–22,
comply with the following:
(ii) 5.7.3 Warning labels that are
attached to the fabric with seams shall
remain in contact with the fabric around
the entire perimeter of the label, when
the sling is in all manufacturer
recommended use positions.

the timeframe from 90 days to 150 days

Temporary final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary safety zone for
certain waters of the Seneca Creek. The
safety zone is needed to protect
personnel, vessels, and the marine
environment on these navigable waters
in Baltimore County, MD, on August 19,
2022, (with alternate date of August 22,
2022) from potential hazards during an
implosion of the former Charles P.
Crane Generating Station. Entry of
vessels or persons into this zone is
prohibited unless specifically
authorized by the Captain of the Port,
Maryland-National Capital Region or a
designated representative.
DATES: This rule is effective from 6:30
a.m. on August 19, 2022, through 10
a.m. on August 22, 2022. This rule will
be enforced from 6:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. on
August 19, 2022, or, if necessary due to
inclement weather on August 19, 2022,
from 6:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. on August 22,

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 it
is impracticable and contrary to the
public interest to publish an NPRM
because we must take immediate action
to establish this safety zone by August
19, 2022, to respond to potential safety
hazards associated with the implosion.
Potential safety hazards include the
resulting dust cloud reducing visibility
within the navigable channel. Event
planners did not notify the Coast Guard
of the event until August 5, 2022.
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 impracticable and
contrary to the public interest because
immediate action is needed to respond
to the potential safety hazards
associated with the implosion of the
Charles P. Crane Generating Station
facility.
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, Maryland-National
Capital Region (COTP) has determined
that potential hazards associated with
the implosion of the Charles P. Crane
Generating Station facility will be a
safety concern for anyone within 1,250
feet of the implosion site. This rule is
needed to protect personnel, vessels,
