Background
On February 2, 2017, OFAC issued GL
1 to authorize certain transactions
otherwise prohibited by E.O. 13694 of
April 1, 2015, (‘‘Blocking the Property of
Certain Persons Engaging in Significant
Malicious Cyber-Enabled Activities,’’ 80
FR 18077) as amended by E.O. 13757 of
December 28, 2016 (‘‘Taking Additional
Steps to Address the National
Emergency With Respect to Significant
Malicious Cyber-Enabled Activities,’’ 82
FR 1). Subsequently, OFAC issued three
further iterations of GL 1: On March 15,
2018, OFAC issued GL 1A, which
superseded GL 1, to authorize certain
transactions otherwise prohibited by
E.O. 13694 and by Section 224 of the
Countering America’s Adversaries
Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA, 22
U.S.C. 9524); on February 17, 2021,
OFAC issued GL 1B, which superseded
GL 1A, to authorize certain transactions
otherwise prohibited by E.O. 13694,
Section 224 of CAATSA, and the
Weapons of Mass Destruction
Proliferators Sanctions Regulations, 31
CFR part 544 (the WMDPSR); and on
April 27, 2023, OFAC issued GL 1C,
which superseded GL 1B, to authorize
certain transactions otherwise
prohibited by the Cyber-Related
Sanctions Regulations, 31 CFR part 578
(the CRSR), the WMDPSR, and E.O.
14078 of July 19, 2022 (‘‘Bolstering
Efforts to Bring Hostages and
Wrongfully Detained United States
Nationals Home,’’ 87 FR 43389). OFAC
incorporated E.O. 13694, E.O. 13757,
and portions of CAATSA into the CRSR
on September 6, 2022. Each GL was
made available on OFAC’s website
(www.treas.gov/ofac) when it was

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 it is
impracticable. We must establish this
safety zone immediately to protect
personnel, vessels, and the marine
environment from potential hazards
created by the fireworks display and
lack sufficient time to provide a
reasonable comment period and then to
consider those comments before issuing
the 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 the public
interest because immediate action is
needed to respond to the potential
safety hazards associated with fireworks
launched from a barge in the waters of
the Laguna Madre.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034. The
Captain of the Port Sector Corpus
PO 00000
Frm 00036
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
Christi (COTP) has determined that
potential hazards associated with the
fireworks display from 9:30 p.m.
through 11:59 p.m. on May 28, 2023,
will be a safety concern for anyone
within the waters of the Laguna Madre
area with a 700 yard radius from the
following point; 26°6′02.1″ N,
97°10′17.7″ W. The purpose of this rule
is to ensure safety of vessels and
persons on these navigable waters in the
safety zone while the display of the
fireworks takes place in the Laguna
Madre.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a temporary
safety zone from 9:30 p.m. through
11:59 p.m. on May 28, 2023. The safety
zone will encompass certain navigable
waters of the Laguna Madre and is
defined by a 700-yard radius around the
launching platform. The regulated area
encompasses a 700-yard radius from the
following point; 26°6′02.1″ N,
97°10′17.7″ W. The fireworks display
will take place in waters of the Laguna
Madre. No vessel or person is permitted
to enter the temporary safety zone
during the effective period without
obtaining permission from the COTP or
a designated representative, who may be
contacted on Channel 16 VHF–FM
(156.8 MHz) or by telephone at 361–
939–0450. The Coast Guard will issue
Broadcast Notices to Mariners, Local
Notices to Mariners, and/or Safety
Marine Information Broadcasts, as
appropriate.
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.
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).
This regulatory action determination
is based on the size, location, and
duration of the safety zone. The
temporary safety zone will be enforced
for a short period of 2.5 hours. The zone
is limited to a 700-yard radius from the
launching position of in the navigable

This document and additional information concerning OFAC are

Background
On February 2, 2017, OFAC issued GL 1 to authorize certain
transactions otherwise prohibited by E.O. 13694 of April 1, 2015,
(``Blocking the Property of Certain Persons Engaging in Significant
Malicious Cyber-Enabled Activities,'' 80 FR 18077) as amended by E.O.
13757 of December 28, 2016 (``Taking Additional Steps to Address the
National Emergency With Respect to Significant Malicious Cyber-Enabled
Activities,'' 82 FR 1). Subsequently, OFAC issued three further
iterations of GL 1: On March 15, 2018, OFAC issued GL 1A, which
superseded GL 1, to authorize certain transactions otherwise prohibited
by E.O. 13694 and by Section 224 of the Countering America's
Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA, 22 U.S.C. 9524); on February
17, 2021, OFAC issued GL 1B, which superseded GL 1A, to authorize
certain transactions otherwise prohibited by E.O. 13694, Section 224 of
CAATSA, and the Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferators Sanctions
Regulations, 31 CFR part 544 (the WMDPSR); and on April 27, 2023, OFAC
issued GL 1C, which superseded GL 1B, to authorize certain transactions
otherwise prohibited by the Cyber-Related Sanctions Regulations, 31 CFR
part 578 (the CRSR), the WMDPSR, and E.O. 14078 of July 19, 2022
(``Bolstering Efforts to Bring Hostages and Wrongfully Detained United
States Nationals Home,'' 87 FR 43389). OFAC incorporated E.O. 13694,
E.O. 13757, and portions of CAATSA into the CRSR on September 6, 2022.
Each GL was made available on OFAC's website (www.treas.gov/ofac) when
it was issued. The text of these GLs is provided below.
