Download as PDF 5824 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 19 / Monday, January 30, 2023 / Proposed Rules The Proposal The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 to revoke Colored Federal airway R–39 in the vicinity of Bethel, AK due to the decommissioning of the OSE, VTR, ICW NDBs. R–39 currently navigates between OSE and ICW. The FAA proposes to revoke R–39 in its entirety. Colored Federal airways are published in paragraph 6009(d) of FAA Order JO 7400.11G dated August 19, 2022 and effective September 15, 2022, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Colored Federal airway listed in this document would be removed subsequently in FAA Order JO 7400.11. FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points, is published yearly and effective on September 15. Regulatory Notices and Analyses The FAA has determined that this proposed regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current. It, therefore: (1) is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under Department of Transportation (DOT) Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this proposed rule, when promulgated, will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Environmental Review This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final regulatory action. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1 List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71 Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).

Notice of proposed rulemaking. AGENCY: ACTION: The Coast Guard proposes to revise an existing safety zone regulation in Tampa Bay within the geographic boundaries of the Captain of the Port (COTP) St. Petersburg Zone. The proposed change is designed to align the coordinates in the regulation with the coordinates needed to properly control traffic in cases of restricted visibility in Tampa Bay. The current coordinates do not reflect the safety zones that the Coast Guard intended to put in place. The Coast Guard invites your comments on this proposed rulemaking. DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast Guard on or before March 1, 2023. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG– SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00025 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 2022–0978 using the Federal Decision Making Portal at https:// www.regulations.gov.

Table of Abbreviations CFR Code of Federal Regulations DHS Department of Homeland Security FR Federal Register NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking § Section U.S.C. United States Code II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis On June 26, 2015, the Coast Guard published a final rule entitled, ‘‘Safety Zones, St. Petersburg Captain of the Port Zone.1 ’’ This action was taken to establish safety zones that restrict port operations in the event of reduced or restricted visibility, or during natural disasters, e.g. hurricanes, and establish safety zones around firework platforms, structures or barges during the storage, preparation, and launching of fireworks. This final rule established seven zones that could be used to direct vessel movement in times of restricted visibility. In 2022, it was brought to the attention of the Seventh Coast Guard District that the safety zones listed in 33 CFR 165.782(a)(4) and (a)(5) did not reflect the zones that were needed for the Captain of the Port (COTP) to properly control vessel movement in times of reduced visibility. More specifically, the errors were discovered in the first coordinate of zone 4 in § 165.782(a)(4) and the second coordinate of zone 5 in § 165.782(a)(5). With this proposed rule, the Coast Guard is correcting the points needed by the COTP to ensure safety amongst all port users, particularly in time of reduced visibility. The Coast Guard is proposing this rulemaking under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034. III. Discussion of Proposed Rule This rule is proposing to modify zones 4 and 5 listed in § 165.782(a)(4) and (a)(5) to align with the zones that were intended by the COTP, and are 1 80 E:\FR\FM\30JAP1.SGM FR 36716. 30JAP1 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 19 / Monday, January 30, 2023 / Proposed Rules necessary to control vessel movement during times of reduced visibility. The proposed rule would to make the following changes in §§ 165.782(a)(4) and (a)(5): move the first coordinate in zone 4, from 27°46′34″ N, 82°34′04″ W, to 27°46′36″ N; 82°24′04″ W, and move the second coordinate in zone 5 from 27°58′59″ N, 82°40′34″ W, to 27°38′59″ N, 82°40′35″ W. 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 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. 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). This regulatory action determination is based on four specific factors: (1) these zones will only be activated in times of restricted visibility; (2) the zones will only be activated for short periods of time; (3) persons and vessels may operate within the security zone when authorized by Captain of the Port of St. Petersburg or a designated representative; and (4) the zones are already in place, this regulatory action only represents a minor change in the boundaries. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1 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. While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the safety zone may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section IV.A above, this proposed rule would not have a VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:58 Jan 27, 2023 Jkt 259001 significant economic impact on any vessel owner or operator. If you think that your business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this proposed 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 proposed rule. If the proposed 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. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard. C. Collection of Information This proposed rule would 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 proposed 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 proposed rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order 13175 (Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments) because it would 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 proposed rule has implications for federalism or Indian tribes, please call or email the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. PO 00000 Frm 00026 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 5825 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 proposed rule would not result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the potential effects of this proposed rule elsewhere in this preamble. F. Environment We have analyzed this proposed 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 made a preliminary determination 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 proposed rule only involves correction of coordinates identifying the reduced visibility of safety zones 4 and 5 that had already been established for several years. Normally such actions are 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 preliminary 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. We seek any comments or information that may lead to the discovery of a significant environmental impact from this proposed rule. 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.

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

    On June 26, 2015, the Coast Guard published a final rule entitled, 
``Safety Zones, St. Petersburg Captain of the Port Zone.\1\ '' This 
action was taken to establish safety zones that restrict port 
operations in the event of reduced or restricted visibility, or during 
natural disasters, e.g. hurricanes, and establish safety zones around 
firework platforms, structures or barges during the storage, 
preparation, and launching of fireworks. This final rule established 
seven zones that could be used to direct vessel movement in times of 
restricted visibility. In 2022, it was brought to the attention of the 
Seventh Coast Guard District that the safety zones listed in 33 CFR 
165.782(a)(4) and (a)(5) did not reflect the zones that were needed for 
the Captain of the Port (COTP) to properly control vessel movement in 
times of reduced visibility. More specifically, the errors were 
discovered in the first coordinate of zone 4 in Sec.  165.782(a)(4) and 
the second coordinate of zone 5 in Sec.  165.782(a)(5). With this 
proposed rule, the Coast Guard is correcting the points needed by the 
COTP to ensure safety amongst all port users, particularly in time of 
reduced visibility. The Coast Guard is proposing this rulemaking under 
authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    This rule is proposing to modify zones 4 and 5 listed in Sec.  
165.782(a)(4) and (a)(5) to align with the zones that were intended by 
the COTP, and are

[[Page 5825]]

necessary to control vessel movement during times of reduced 
visibility. The proposed rule would to make the following changes in 
Sec. Sec.  165.782(a)(4) and (a)(5): move the first coordinate in zone 
4, from 27[deg]46'34'' N, 82[deg]34'04'' W, to 27[deg]46'36'' N; 
82[deg]24'04'' W, and move the second coordinate in zone 5 from 
27[deg]58'59'' N, 82[deg]40'34'' W, to 27[deg]38'59'' N, 82[deg]40'35'' 
W.

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 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. 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).
    This regulatory action determination is based on four specific 
factors: (1) these zones will only be activated in times of restricted 
visibility; (2) the zones will only be activated for short periods of 
time; (3) persons and vessels may operate within the security zone when 
authorized by Captain of the Port of St. Petersburg or a designated 
representative; and (4) the zones are already in place, this regulatory 
action only represents a minor change in the boundaries.

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.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the 
safety zone may be small entities, for the reasons stated in section 
IV.A above, this proposed rule would not have a significant economic 
impact on any vessel owner or operator.
    If you think that your business, organization, or governmental 
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this proposed 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 proposed rule. If the proposed 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. The Coast Guard will not 
retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this 
proposed rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule would 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 proposed 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 proposed rule does not have tribal implications under 
Executive Order 13175 (Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal 
Governments) because it would 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 proposed rule has implications for federalism or 
Indian tribes, please call or email 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 proposed rule would not 
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the potential effects of 
this proposed rule elsewhere in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed 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 made 
a preliminary determination 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 proposed rule only involves 
correction of coordinates identifying the reduced visibility of safety 
zones 4 and 5 that had already been established for several years. 
Normally such actions are 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 preliminary 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. We seek any comments or information that may lead to the 
discovery of a significant environmental impact from this proposed 
rule.

G. Protest Activities
