Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 197 / Friday, October 13, 2023 / Rules and Regulations
holds. Under §§ 1.283(d) and 1.285(j),
certain parties may, for the enumerated
reasons, request reviews of the prior
notice refusals and holds within 5
calendar days of the hold or refusal. The
fourth edition clarifies that FDA
considers the 5-calendar-day clock to
begin when FDA provides notice of the
refusal or hold to the submitter or
transmitter.
Additionally, in 2016, CBP issued a
notice announcing that ABI/ACE would
replace ACS as the sole electronic data
interchange system authorized by CBP
for the processing of electronic entries
of FDA-regulated products (see 81 FR
30320, May 16, 2016). ABI/ACE became
the successor system to ACS. In 2017,
we amended 21 CFR part 1, subpart I to
replace references to ACS and successor
system with ABI/ACE (see 82 FR
15627). As part of this rulemaking, we
eliminated some requirements for
submitting prior notice due to the
expanded capabilities of ABI/ACE, such
as the requirement to submit articles
that have been refused under section
801(m)(1) of the FD&C Act or subpart I
in FDA PNSI. Further, ABI/ACE can
now accommodate entries it previously
could not, such as articles of food
arriving through international mail.
Therefore, to reflect these changes that
were implemented in the rulemaking
and the expanded capabilities of ABI/
ACE, we are replacing references in the
prior notice guidance to ACS with the
successor system ABI/ACE. In addition,
we are providing clarification regarding
how persons may submit prior notice
for articles of food imported or offered
for import by international mail.
This guidance is being issued
consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115).
The guidance represents the current
thinking of FDA on guidance for
industry on the prior notice
requirements. It does not establish any
rights for any person and is not binding
on FDA or the public. You can use an
alternative approach if it satisfies the
requirements of the applicable statutes
and regulations.

Coast Guard, DHS.
Temporary final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary safety zone on
the waterways surrounding Jacksonville,
Florida during the 2023 Jacksonville
Beach Sea and Sky Air Show. The safety
zone is necessary to ensure the safety of
event participants and spectators. Entry
of vessels or persons into this zone is
prohibited unless specifically
authorized by the Captain of the Port
(COTP) Jacksonville or a designated
representative.
SUMMARY:
This rule is effective from 7 a.m.
until 5 p.m. on October 20, 2023,
through October 22, 2023.

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. The Coast Guard was
notified of the event without ample time
for the NPRM process. We must
establish the safety zone by October 20,
2023, and lack sufficient time to provide
for a reasonable comment period and
then consider those comments before
issuing this 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 ensure the safety of the
participants and vessels during the 2023
Jacksonville Beach Sea and Sky Air
Show.
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 Jacksonville
(COTP) has determined that potential
hazards associated with the 2023
Jacksonville Beach Sea and Sky Air
Show will be a safety concern for
persons and vessels in the regulated
area. This rule is needed to ensure the
safety of the event participants, the
general public, vessels and the marine
environment in the navigable waters
within the safety zone during the 2023
Jacksonville Beach Sea and Sky Air
Show.
IV. Discussion of the Rule

certain waters of Jacksonville, Florida,

and Sky Air Show. The safety zone will
be enforced from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m. on
October 20, 2023, through October 22,
2023. The safety zone will cover waters
within the points starting at 30°18′00″
N, 081°23′06″ W, then proceeding to the
East to point 30°17′54″ N, 081°21′54″ W,
then to the Southeast to point 30°16′12″
N, 081°21′34″ W, then to the Southwest
to point 30°16′06″ N, 081°22′43″ W,
then proceeding to the first point.
No person or vessel will be permitted
to enter, transit through, anchor in, or
remain within the safety zone without
first obtaining permission from the
COTP or a designated representative. If
authorization to enter, transit through,
anchor in, or remain within the safety
zone is granted by the COTP or a
designated representative, all persons
and vessels receiving such authorization
must comply with the instructions of
the COTP or a designated
representative. The Coast Guard will
provide notice of the safety zone by
Broadcast Notice to Mariners, and/or by
on-scene designated representatives.

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 following reasons: (1) the
temporary safety zone will only be
enforced for a total of 10 hours per day,
for 3 consecutive days; (2) although
persons and vessels may not enter,
transit through, anchor in, or remain
within the safety zone without
authorization from the COTP or a
designated representative, they may
operate in the surrounding area during
the enforcement period; (3) persons and
vessels may still enter, transit through,
anchor in, or remain within the areas
during the enforcement period if
authorized by the COTP or a designated
representative.

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 rule will 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 V.A above, this
rule will not have a significant
economic impact on any vessel owner
or operator.
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 rule. If the 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.
Small businesses may send comments
on the actions of Federal employees
who enforce, or otherwise determine
compliance with, Federal regulations to
the Small Business and Agriculture
Regulatory Enforcement Ombudsman
and the Regional Small Business
Regulatory Fairness Boards. The
Ombudsman evaluates these actions
annually and rates each agency’s
responsiveness to small business. If you
wish to comment on actions by
employees of the Coast Guard, call 1–
888–REG–FAIR (1–888–734–3247). The
Coast Guard will not retaliate against
small entities that question or complain
about this rule or any policy or action
of the Coast Guard.
power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government. We have
analyzed this 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 rule does not have Tribal
implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does 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.
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 rule
will not result in such an expenditure,
we do discuss the effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.
D. Federalism and Indian Tribal
Governments
F. Environment
We have analyzed this 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
determined 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 rule involves a 1.7
nautical mile perimeter safety zone,
lasting the duration of the marine event
and thus limited in time and scope. This
zone will prohibit entry while in effect.
It is categorically excluded from further
review under paragraph L60a of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction
Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 1. A
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.
A rule has implications for federalism

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

ACTION: Final rule; limited waiver.
AGENCY:
The Wireless
Telecommunications Bureau (Bureau) of
the Federal Communications
Commission (Commission) recently
granted a limited waiver of the
Commission’s wireless hearing aid
compatibility rules with respect to the
volume control technical standard that
handset manufacturers use in part to
certify handsets as hearing aidcompatible under the 2019 ANSI
Standard. The Bureau took this step in
response to a petition filed by the
Alliance for Telecommunications
Industry Solutions (ATIS) seeking
waiver of certain aspects of these rules.
By conditionally granting the waiver
request, the Bureau ensures that handset
manufacturers can continue to release
new hearing aid-compatible handset
models while a new volume control
standard is developed that the
Commission can adopt into its wireless
hearing aid compatibility rules.
DATES: The waiver is effective as of
September 29, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Synopsis
1. The Bureau grants a limited waiver
of § 20.19(b)(1) and (3) of the
Commission’s wireless hearing aid
compatibility rules with respect to the
volume control technical standard that
handset manufacturers use in part to
certify handsets as hearing aidcompatible under the 2019 ANSI
Standard. This action is prompted by a
request filed by the Alliance for
Telecommunications Industry Solutions
(ATIS) seeking waiver of certain aspects
of these rules. Under the terms of the
time-limited waiver the Bureau grants, a
handset may be certified as hearing aidcompatible under the 2019 ANSI
Standard if it meets the volume control
testing requirements described in this
Order as well as all other aspects of the
2019 ANSI Standard.
2. Consistent with ATIS’s September
12, 2023, ex parte letter (ATIS Ex Parte
Letter) and as a condition of this waiver,
the Bureau requires a handset to pass
the conversational gain test at the 2
Newton (N) force level on all available
narrowband and wideband codecs and
air interface combinations. With respect
to the 8N force level test, the Bureau
agrees with the ATIS Ex Parte Letter that
this test should be performed, and the
Bureau waives the requirement that a
handset achieve at least an 18 dB
conversational gain. This waiver is
conditioned on manufacturers
performing the 8N force level test using
the same testing parameters that the
Bureau is requiring for the 2N force
level test and to place on the handset’s
package label the resulting
conversational gain (even if it is below
18 dB) in a manner consistent with the

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

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 ensure the safety of the participants and vessels
during the 2023 Jacksonville Beach Sea and Sky Air Show.
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 Jacksonville (COTP) has
determined that potential hazards associated with the 2023 Jacksonville
Beach Sea and Sky Air Show will be a safety concern for persons and
vessels in the regulated area. This rule is needed to ensure the safety
of the event participants, the general public, vessels and the marine

IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a safety zone on certain waters of
Jacksonville, Florida, during the 2023 Jacksonville Beach Sea
[[Page 70890]]
and Sky Air Show. The safety zone will be enforced from 7 a.m. until 5
p.m. on October 20, 2023, through October 22, 2023. The safety zone
will cover waters within the points starting at 30[deg]18'00'' N,
081[deg]23'06'' W, then proceeding to the East to point 30[deg]17'54''
N, 081[deg]21'54'' W, then to the Southeast to point 30[deg]16'12'' N,
081[deg]21'34'' W, then to the Southwest to point 30[deg]16'06'' N,
081[deg]22'43'' W, then proceeding to the first point.
No person or vessel will be permitted to enter, transit through,
anchor in, or remain within the safety zone without first obtaining
permission from the COTP or a designated representative. If
authorization to enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within
the safety zone is granted by the COTP or a designated representative,
all persons and vessels receiving such authorization must comply with
the instructions of the COTP or a designated representative. The Coast
Guard will provide notice of the safety zone by Broadcast Notice to
Mariners, and/or by on-scene designated representatives.
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 following reasons:
(1) the temporary safety zone will only be enforced for a total of 10
hours per day, for 3 consecutive days; (2) although persons and vessels
may not enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within the safety
zone without authorization from the COTP or a designated
representative, they may operate in the surrounding area during the
enforcement period; (3) persons and vessels may still enter, transit
through, anchor in, or remain within the areas during the enforcement
period if authorized by the COTP or a designated representative.
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 rule
will 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
V.A above, this rule will not have a significant economic impact on any
vessel owner or operator.
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 rule. If the 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.
Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or
action of the Coast Guard.
C. Collection of Information
This rule will 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 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 rule does not have Tribal implications under Executive
Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments, because it does 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.
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 rule will not result in
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.
F. Environment
We have analyzed this 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 determined 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 rule involves a 1.7
nautical mile perimeter safety zone, lasting the duration of the marine
event and thus limited in time and scope. This zone will prohibit entry
while in effect. It is categorically excluded from further review under
paragraph L60a of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-
001-01, Rev. 1. A 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.
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
[[Page 70891]]
coordinate protest activities so that your message can be received
without jeopardizing the safety or security of people, places, or
vessels.
