Final rule. AGENCY: ACTION: The rule makes nonsubstantive changes to Coast Guard regulations in association with a change in the Coast Guard’s internal organization. The purpose of this rule is to reflect that U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie has been renamed U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern Great Lakes. This rule will have no substantive effect on the regulated public. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES SUMMARY: This rule is effective without actual notice December 21, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AOR Area of responsibility CFR Code of Federal Regulations COTP Captain of the Port DHS Department of Homeland Security FR Federal Register NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking OCMI Officer in Charge of Marine Inspections OFCO Operating Facility Change Order SAR Search and Rescue § Section U.S.C. United States Code II. Background Information and Regulatory History For the last several years, the Coast Guard has sought to better align the names of its assets to correspond to the area of responsibility which they serve. Review of the missions and engagements within the northern Great Lakes region highlighted that ‘‘Sector Sault Sainte Marie’’ alone did not adequately capture the breadth and range of Coast Guard operations and relationships throughout the region. The Coast Guard has approved the name change to U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern Great Lakes to acknowledge the long-standing commitment to all communities of the region and to reaffirm the multi-mission support that the Coast Guard provides to ensure safety at sea and enhanced maritime governance. The geographic boundaries of Sector Northern Great Lakes are not changing, and its office is not moving from Sault Sainte Marie, MI. We did not publish a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) before this final rule. The Coast Guard finds that this rule is exempt from notice and comment rulemaking requirements under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A) because the changes it makes are conforming amendments involving agency organization. The Coast Guard also finds good cause exists under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) for not publishing an NPRM because the changes will have no PO 00000 Frm 00029 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 88249 substantive effect on the public and notice and comment are therefore unnecessary. For the same reasons, the Coast Guard finds good cause exists under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3) to make the rule effective fewer than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 14 U.S.C. 504(a)(2), as delegated at 33 CFR 1.05–1(h), to issue regulations necessary to implement technical, organizational, and conforming amendments and corrections to rules, regulations, and notices. On November 06, 2023, the Coast Guard issued Operating Facility Change Order (OFCO) No. 037–23 which changed the official unit name of U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie to U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern Great Lakes. The previous name of Sector Sault Sainte Marie is described and reflected in regulations, which also contain contact details and other references to Sector Sault Sainte Marie. These conforming amendments update those regulations so that they contain current information. Under 14 U.S.C. 504(a)(2), the Commandant of the Coast Guard has the authority to establish and prescribe the purpose of Coast Guard Shore establishments. This authority has been delegated to the Chief of the Coast Guard’s Office of Regulations and Administrative Law under 33 CFR 1.05– 1(h). IV. Discussion of the Rule OFCO No. 037–23, issued November 06, 2023, changed the official unit name of U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie to U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern Great Lakes. The November 2023 OFCO did not change the area of responsibility (AOR). The AOR of U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern Great Lakes is identical to that of what was U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie. All authorities and responsibilities previously assigned to Commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie have been assigned to Commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern Great Lakes. Additionally, all authorities that were vested in the Commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie as it pertains to the COTP, the OCMI, the Federal On Scene Coordinator, the Federal Maritime Security Coordinator, and the Search and Rescue Coordinator, have been assigned to Commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern Great Lakes. This rule does not change any sector, OCMI, or COTP zone boundary lines, nor does E:\FR\FM\21DER1.SGM 21DER1 88250 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 244 / Thursday, December 21, 2023 / Rules and Regulations it have any substantive impact on existing regulated navigation area, safety zone, or security zone regulation, or any naval vessel protection zones. 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. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES 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 finding that the name change will have no substantive effect on the public. 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. For the reasons stated in section V.A. above, this rule will not have a significant economic impact on any member of the public, including ‘‘small entities.’’ 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:43 Dec 20, 2023 Jkt 262001 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 consists only of an organizational amendment. It is categorically excluded from further PO 00000 Frm 00030 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 review under paragraph L3 of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 1, Implementation of the National Environmental Policy Act.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions on this temporary interim rule, call or email Carl Hausner, Chief, Bridge Section, Eleventh Coast Guard District; telephone 510–437– 3516, email Carl.T.Hausner@uscg.mil. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DATES: II. Background Information and Regulatory History The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary interim 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), 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. This bridge is secured closed and will be secured closed until design plans are finalized, coordination of construction schedule can be made with landowners and PG&E, contractor hired, and repairs completed. On June 21, 2023, RD2030 notified the Coast Guard that the Zuckerman Brothers (McDonald Island) retractable span bridge should not open for the passage of vessels. The cause was the gradual movement which squeezed the abutments towards the center movable steel section. The span cannot be opened without the risk of it being stuck in the open-to-navigation position. The Zuckerman Brothers (McDonald Island) PO 00000 Frm 00031 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 88251 bridge is the only road in and out of McDonald Island, which includes farms and a PG&E station and wells. The Coast Guard granted a Notice of Temporary Deviation (NOTD) from the operating schedule of the bridge, allowing the span to be secured in the closed position until repairs can be made. The NOTD will expire at 7 a.m. on December 18, 2023. The design, coordination of work with affected parties, and repair is delayed. The retractable span will not be operational at the expiration of the NOTD. The Coast Guard received the report of these delays on November 17, 2023. Therefore, there is insufficient time to provide a reasonable comment period and then consider those comments before issuing the modification. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for making it effective in less than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. For reasons presented above, delaying the effective date of this rule would be impracticable and contrary to the public interest because the retractable span of the bridge is currently secured closed and cannot be operated until repairs are completed. We are soliciting comments on this rulemaking. If the Coast Guard determines that changes to the temporary interim rule are necessary, we will publish a temporary final rule or other appropriate document. III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary interim rule under authority in 33 U.S.C. 499. The Coast Guard is modifying the operating schedule that governs the Zuckerman Brothers (McDonald Island) bridge, mile 2.3, across Turner Cut, near Stockton, CA. The Zuckerman Brothers (McDonald Island) bridge has a vertical clearance, in the closed position, of 16 feet at mean high water and unlimited vertical clearance when opened. The existing drawbridge regulation, 33 CFR 117.5, states that the draw of the Zuckerman Brothers (McDonald Island) bridge must open for vessels if a signal is given to do so. RD2030, the bridge owner, has requested this modification as additional time is required to complete bridge repairs. Drawtender logs from January 2022 through June 2023 indicate the span opened on average, 2 times in January; 1 time in February; 1 time in March; 3 times in April; 11 times in May; 8 times in June; 18 times in July; 6 times in August; 7 times in September; 4 times in October; 2 times in November; and 3 times in December.

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    For the last several years, the Coast Guard has sought to better 
align the names of its assets to correspond to the area of 
responsibility which they serve. Review of the missions and engagements 
within the northern Great Lakes region highlighted that ``Sector Sault 
Sainte Marie'' alone did not adequately capture the breadth and range 
of Coast Guard operations and relationships throughout the region. The 
Coast Guard has approved the name change to U.S. Coast Guard Sector 
Northern Great Lakes to acknowledge the long-standing commitment to all 
communities of the region and to reaffirm the multi-mission support 
that the Coast Guard provides to ensure safety at sea and enhanced 
maritime governance. The geographic boundaries of Sector Northern Great 
Lakes are not changing, and its office is not moving from Sault Sainte 
Marie, MI.
    We did not publish a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) before 
this final rule. The Coast Guard finds that this rule is exempt from 
notice and comment rulemaking requirements under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A) 
because the changes it makes are conforming amendments involving agency 
organization. The Coast Guard also finds good cause exists under 5 
U.S.C. 553(b)(B) for not publishing an NPRM because the changes will 
have no substantive effect on the public and notice and comment are 
therefore unnecessary. For the same reasons, the Coast Guard finds good 
cause exists under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3) to make the rule effective fewer 
than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 14 U.S.C. 
504(a)(2), as delegated at 33 CFR 1.05-1(h), to issue regulations 
necessary to implement technical, organizational, and conforming 
amendments and corrections to rules, regulations, and notices.
    On November 06, 2023, the Coast Guard issued Operating Facility 
Change Order (OFCO) No. 037-23 which changed the official unit name of 
U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie to U.S. Coast Guard Sector 
Northern Great Lakes. The previous name of Sector Sault Sainte Marie is 
described and reflected in regulations, which also contain contact 
details and other references to Sector Sault Sainte Marie. These 
conforming amendments update those regulations so that they contain 
current information.
    Under 14 U.S.C. 504(a)(2), the Commandant of the Coast Guard has 
the authority to establish and prescribe the purpose of Coast Guard 
Shore establishments. This authority has been delegated to the Chief of 
the Coast Guard's Office of Regulations and Administrative Law under 33 
CFR 1.05-1(h).

IV. Discussion of the Rule

    OFCO No. 037-23, issued November 06, 2023, changed the official 
unit name of U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie to U.S. Coast 
Guard Sector Northern Great Lakes. The November 2023 OFCO did not 
change the area of responsibility (AOR). The AOR of U.S. Coast Guard 
Sector Northern Great Lakes is identical to that of what was U.S. Coast 
Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie. All authorities and responsibilities 
previously assigned to Commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte 
Marie have been assigned to Commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern 
Great Lakes. Additionally, all authorities that were vested in the 
Commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Sault Sainte Marie as it pertains to 
the COTP, the OCMI, the Federal On Scene Coordinator, the Federal 
Maritime Security Coordinator, and the Search and Rescue Coordinator, 
have been assigned to Commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern Great 
Lakes. This rule does not change any sector, OCMI, or COTP zone 
boundary lines, nor does

[[Page 88250]]

it have any substantive impact on existing regulated navigation area, 
safety zone, or security zone regulation, or any naval vessel 
protection zones.

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.

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 finding that 
the name change will have no substantive effect on the public.

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.
    For the reasons stated in section V.A. above, this rule will not 
have a significant economic impact on any member of the public, 
including ``small entities.''
    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
