AGENCY: ACTION: The Coast Guard is issuing a temporary deviation from the operating schedule that governs the Flagler Memorial Bridge, across Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AICW), mile 1021.8, at West Palm Beach, Florida.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background, Purpose and Legal Basis The Flagler Memorial Bridge, across Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AICW), mile 1021.8, at West Palm Beach, Florida is a double-leaf bascule bridge with a 24-foot vertical clearance at mean high water in the closed position. The normal operating schedule is set forth in 33 CFR 117.261(u). Palm Beach County and communities surrounding the bridge requested the Coast Guard consider allowing the drawbridge to remain closed to navigation during morning and evening peak traffic hours. The Coast Guard has determined that allowing extended daily closures along this portion of the AICW will not meet the reasonable needs of navigation. However, to assist Palm Beach County and communities surrounding the bridge with alleviating vehicle traffic in the area, the Coast Guard is issuing the following temporary deviation to test an alternate drawbridge operating schedule. Under this temporary deviation, the Flagler Memorial Bridge will open on the quarter and three-quarter hour, except that Monday through Friday (except Federal holidays) from 7:30 to 9 a.m. and from 4 to 6 p.m., the draw need only open on the quarter hour. The Coast Guard will also inform the users of the waterways through our Local and Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the change in operating schedule for the bridge so that vessel operators can arrange their transits to minimize any impact caused by the temporary deviation. In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridge must return to its regular operating schedule immediately at the end of the effective period of this temporary deviation. This deviation from the operating regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35. II.

This action is necessary to promote safety on navigable waters. During the enforcement period, entry into, transit through, mooring, or anchoring within this zone is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port, Sector Puget Sound or a designated representative.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 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 Information and Regulatory History The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary rule without prior notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:01 Jul 28, 2023 Jkt 259001 PO 00000 Frm 00022 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 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 to publish an NPRM for this temporary rule because we must establish the safety zone by August 1, 2023, to protect the public. 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 because delaying the effective date of this rule would be impracticable because immediate action is needed to respond to the potential safety hazards associated with the parade event. III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034. Due to the Parade of Ships taking place near Pier 62, Elliott Bay, Seattle, WA, on August 1, 2023, there will be a safety concern for anyone within a box encompassed by the points 47°36.719′ N, 122°21.099′ W; 47°36.682′ N, 122°21.149′ W; 47°36.504′ N, 122°20.723′ W; 47°36.469′ N, 122°20.773′ W. This rule is needed to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment in the navigable waters within the safety zone associated with the Parade of Ships. IV. Discussion of the Rule This rule establishes a safety zone for this year’s Parade of Ships, the Pass in Review of which will occur on Pier 62. The duration of the zone is intended to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment in these navigable waters near Pier 62. No vessel or person will be permitted to enter the safety zone without obtaining permission from the COTP or a designated representative. The safety zone will be enforced from 11:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. on August 1, 2023. 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. E:\FR\FM\31JYR1.SGM 31JYR1
