NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
Dated: September 27, 2023.
Jordan M. Baldueza,
Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Alternate Captain
of the Port San Francisco.
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 a
temporary safety zone must be
established immediately to protect
personnel, vessels, and the marine
environment from potential hazards
created by the use of explosives for the
implosion of the power plant and lack
sufficient time to provide a reasonable
comment period and then consider
those comments before issuing the rule.
It is impracticable to publish an NPRM
because we must establish this safety
zone by September 29, 2023.
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
because action is needed to respond to
the potential safety hazards associated
the use of explosives for the implosion
of the Lansing Power Station starting
September 29, 2023.

Temporary final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary safety zone for
all navigable waters in the Upper
Mississippi River at Mile Marker (MM)
660.5 through 659.5. The safety zone is
needed to protect personnel, vessels,
and the marine environment from all
potential hazards associated with the
implosion of the Lansing Power Station.
Entry of vessels or persons into this
zone is prohibited unless specifically
authorized by the Captain of the Port
Sector Upper Mississippi River (COTP)
or a designated representative.
DATES: This rule is effective without
actual notice from October 4, 2023
through October 27, 2023. For the
purposes of enforcement, actual notice
will be used from September 29, 2023
until October 4, 2023.

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 Upper
Mississippi River (COTP) has
determined that potential hazards
associated with the use of explosions for
the implosion of the Lansing Power
Plant will be a safety concern for anyone
operating or transiting within the Upper
Mississippi River from MM 660.5
through 659.5. This rule is needed to
protect personnel, vessels, and the
marine environment in the navigable
waters within the safety zone while the
implosion is being conducted.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
The implosion event will be occurring
on two dates in which explosives will
be used on an implosion of the Lansing
Power Plant located between MM
660.5–659.5 beginning September 29,

2023. The safety zone is designed to
protect waterway users until work is
complete.
No vessel or person will be permitted
to enter the safety zone without
obtaining permission from the COTP or
a designated representative. A
designated representative is a
commissioned, warrant, or petty officer
of the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) assigned
to units under the operational control of
USCG Sector Upper Mississippi River.
To seek permission to enter, contact the
COTP or a designated representative via
VHF–FM channel 16, or through USCG
Sector Upper Mississippi River at 314–
269–2332. Persons and vessels
permitted to enter the safety zone must
comply with all lawful orders or
directions issued by the COTP or
designated representative. The COTP or
a designated representative will inform
the public of the effective period for the
safety zone as well as any changes in the
dates and times of enforcement, as well
as reductions in the size of the safety
zone through Local Notice to Mariners
(LNMs), Broadcast Notices to Mariners
(BNMs), and/or Safety Marine
Information Broadcast (SMIB), 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
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, as
amended by Executive Order 14094
(Modernizing Regulatory Review).
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 safety
zone would impact a small designated
area located on the Upper Mississippi
River at MM 660.5–659.5, near Lansing,
IA. The Safety Zone is expected to be
active only during the implosion events,
from September 29 until October 27,
2023. Vessel traffic will be able to safely
transit around this safety zone when the
safety zone is not enforced.
