Question 19. Costs of reporting. What is the aggregate annual cost to defined contribution and defined benefit plans to submit reports required by ERISA and the Code? Are costs significantly higher for certain reports than others and, if so, which reports, and why? To what extent are such reporting costs paid from plan assets versus from the general assets of the plan sponsor? Commenters are encouraged to provide any data relevant to these questions. 2. Participants, Beneficiaries, and Third Parties—Use of Publicly Available Information and Data Question 20. Use of reports and data by participants and beneficiaries. Is there information reported to the Agencies, but not affirmatively required to be furnished by plans to participants and beneficiaries, that might be beneficial to participants and beneficiaries? If so, what information and to what benefit? Could such information be furnished in a costeffective manner or made available to participants and beneficiaries? If so, please describe these methods and how they could be cost effective. Is there evidence that participants and beneficiaries request to review any reports (or certain information or data) that is reported? Question 21. Use of reports and data by other entities. Do any of the reports required by ERISA and the Code fail to collect information that data users other than the Agencies, including the public at large, data aggregators, and participant advocates, would find useful? If so, which reports and information, and how could reports be modified to collect this information in a cost-effective manner? How would this information be used and how would requesting this information benefit retirement plan participants and beneficiaries, plans, or others? What information should be publicly available, and, if so, how might confidentiality, security, or other concerns be managed (e.g., protection of return information as required by Code section 6103)? To what extent do plans and plan service providers give third parties, such as data aggregators and consultants, access to plan data (e.g., plan investment lineups and associated fees, costs, and performance data) that could facilitate the development of analytic tools and comparative analyses that could be used by plan fiduciaries, participants, or beneficiaries to improve retirement outcomes? Are there impediments to the disclosure of useful VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:48 Jan 22, 2024 Jkt 262001 plan data to such third parties that are inappropriate or that interfere with the cost-effective delivery of such analytic tools or comparative analyses? DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY C. Additional Questions 33 CFR Part 165 Question 22. Coordination of Agencies’ reporting and disclosure requirements. Would participants, beneficiaries, and plans benefit from increased coordination between the Agencies regarding one or more reporting or disclosure requirements and, if so, how? What steps could the Agencies take to achieve such coordination, for example, which specific disclosures, reports, or information could be effectively harmonized by the Agencies and how could the Agencies do so in a costeffective manner? Question 23. Alternative methods for information collection. SECURE 2.0 section 319(b)(3) explicitly provides that the Agencies may ‘‘conduct appropriate surveys and data collection to obtain any needed information.’’ If this authority were used, what data or information should be collected, and what are cost-effective methods that the Agencies could employ to collect such data or information, for example, by consulting with a balanced group of participant and employer representatives, conducting focus groups, preparing surveys, or holding a joint hearing? Question 24. Additional information. Is there any information or are there any suggestions that the Agencies should consider that are not addressed by the questions in this RFI and that may be important to achieve the desired effectiveness of reporting and disclosures as set forth in SECURE 2.0 section 319? * * * * * Signed at Washington, DC.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. AGENCY: The Coast Guard is proposing to amend and update its list of recurring safety zone regulations that take place in the Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley area of responsibility (AOR). Through this rule the current list of recurring safety zones is proposed to be updated with revisions, additional events, and removal of events that no longer take place. This proposed rule would reduce administrative costs involved in producing separate proposed rules for each individual recurring safety zone and serve to provide notice of the known recurring safety zones throughout the year. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking. DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast Guard on or before February 22, 2024. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG– 2023–0904 using the Federal Decision Making Portal at https:// www.regulations.gov. See the ‘‘Public Participation and Request for Comments’’ portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further instructions on submitting comments. SUMMARY: If you have questions about this proposed rulemaking, call or email MST2 Bryan Crane, Sector Ohio Valley, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone 502–779–5334, email SECOHV-WWM@USCG.MIL. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: I. Table of Abbreviations AOR Area of responsibility CFR Code of Federal Regulations COTP Captain of the Port Sector Ohio Valley DHS Department of Homeland Security E.O. Executive Order FR Federal Register NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking § Section U.S.C. United States Code AOR Area of Responsibility E:\FR\FM\23JAP1.SGM 23JAP1 4222 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 15 / Tuesday, January 23, 2024 / Proposed Rules II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis The Captain of the Port Sector Ohio Valley (COTP) proposes to amend section 165.801 of Title 33 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) to update our regulations for annual fireworks displays and other events in the Eighth Coast Guard District requiring safety zones with respect to those in Sector Ohio Valley. The current list of annual and recurring safety zones in Sector Ohio Valley’s area of responsibility (AOR) is published under Table 1 of 33 CFR 165.801 for annual safety zones in the AOR. The Coast Guard proposes to amend and update the safety zone regulations under 33 CFR part 165 to include the most up to date list of recurring safety zones for events held on or around navigable waters within Sector Ohio Valley’s AOR. These events include air shows, fireworks displays, and other marine related events requiring a accordingly, whether through response, additional revision to the regulation, or otherwise. III. Discussion of Proposed Rule Part 165 of 33 CFR contains regulations establishing limited access areas to restrict vessel traffic for the safety of persons and property. Section 165.801 establishes recurring safety zones to restrict vessel transit into and through specified areas to protect spectators, mariners, and other persons and property from potential hazards presented during certain events taking place in the AOR. This section requires amendment from time to time to properly reflect the recurring safety zone regulations in the AOR. This proposed rule would amend and update § 165.801 by revising the current Table 1. This proposed rule would add the following 3 safety zones to the existing Table 1 section 165.801 as follows: Date Event/sponsor Ohio Valley location Regulated area 1 day—First or Second weekend in July Rivesville Firework Show ...................... Rivesville, WV .... 1 day in August ...................................... Wheeling Water Lantern Tribute ........... Wheeling, WV .... 1 day—Labor Day Weekend .................. Catlettsburg Labor Day Fireworks ......... Catlettsburg, KY Monongahela River, Miles 122–124 (West Virginia). Ohio River, Miles 90–92 (West Virginia). Ohio River (Mile 317–317.5) Kentucky. These new recurring events would be reflected in the table in the general date order in which they will occur, and the current recurring events would be reordered, as shown in the proposed regulatory text below. This proposed rule would amend the following 2 safety zones to the existing Table 1 section 165.801 as follows: Date Event/sponsor Ohio Valley location 1 Day—Recurring one weekend in May and June, and on July 4th. Live on the Levee Fireworks (Previously Live on the Levee Memorial Day fireworks). City of Aurora/Aurora Riverfront Beautification—Red, White, and Boom. Charleston, WV .. Kanawha River, Mile 58.1– 59.1 (West Virginia). 1 Day—Recurring one weekend in May and June, and on July 4th. Aurora, IN ........... Ohio River, Mile 496.7; 1,400 ft. radius from the Consolidated Grain Dock located along the State of Indiana shoreline at (Indiana and Kentucky). 23. 1 day—Last weekend in June or first weekend in July. 23. 1 day—Last weekend in June or first weekend in July. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS limited access area restricting vessel traffic for safety purposes. The current list in 33 CFR 165.801 needs to be amended to provide new information on existing safety zones, and to include new safety zones expected to recur annually or biannually, and to remove safety zones that are no longer required. Issuing individual regulations for each new safety zone, amendment, or removal of an existing safety zone would create unnecessary administrative costs and burdens. This single proposed rulemaking would considerably reduce administrative overhead and provide the public with notice through publication in the Federal Register of the upcoming recurring safety zone regulations. The Coast Guard encourages the public to participate in this proposed rulemaking through the comment process so that any necessary changes can be identified and implemented in a timely and efficient manner. The Coast Guard will address all public comments The effect of this proposed rule would be to restrict general navigation in the safety zones during the events. Vessels intending to transit the designated waterway through the safety zones would only be allowed to transit the area when the COTP, or a designated representative, has deemed it safe to do so or at the completion of the event. The proposed annually recurring safety zones are necessary to provide for the safety of life on navigable waters during the events. VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:48 Jan 22, 2024 Jkt 262001 Regulated area IV. Regulatory Analyses We developed this proposed 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 PO 00000 Frm 00012 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 Previously necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits. This NPRM has not been designated a ‘‘significant regulatory action,’’ under Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, the NPRM has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this proposed rule to be minimal, therefore a full regulatory evaluation is unnecessary. This proposed rule would establish safety zones limiting access to certain areas E:\FR\FM\23JAP1.SGM 23JAP1 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 15 / Tuesday, January 23, 2024 / Proposed Rules khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS under 33 CFR part 165 within Sector Ohio Valley’s AOR. The effect of this proposed rulemaking would not be significant because these safety zones would be limited in scope and duration. Additionally, the public would be given advance notification through the Federal Register, and/or Notices of Enforcement and, thus, will be able to plan operations around the safety zones. Broadcast Notices to Mariners, Local Notices to Mariners, and Safety Marine Information Broadcasts would inform the community of these safety zones. Vessel traffic would be allowed to request permission from the COTP or a designated representative to enter the restricted areas. Broadcast Notices to Mariners, Local Notices to Mariners, and Safety Marine Information Broadcasts would inform the community of these safety zones. Vessel traffic would be allowed to request permission from the COTP or a designated representative to enter the restricted areas. 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 proposed rule would 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 IV.A above this proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on any vessel owner or operator. If you think that your business, organization, or governmental jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this proposed rule would have a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment (see ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to what degree this rule would economically affect it. 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 proposed rule. If the proposed 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:48 Jan 22, 2024 Jkt 262001 person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard. C. Collection of Information This proposed rule would 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 proposed 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 proposed rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order 13175 (Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments) because it would 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. If you believe this proposed rule has implications for federalism or Indian tribes, please call or email the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section. 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 proposed rule would not result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the potential effects of this proposed rule elsewhere in this preamble. F. Environment We have analyzed this proposed rule under Department of Homeland Security Directive 023–01, Rev. 1, associated implementing instructions, and Environmental Planning COMDTINST 5090.1 (series), which PO 00000 Frm 00013 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 4223 guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and have made a preliminary determination that this action is one of a category of actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. Normally such actions are categorically excluded from further review under paragraph L60(a) of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 1. A preliminary 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. We seek any comments or information that may lead to the discovery of a significant environmental impact from this proposed rule. 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 coordinate protest activities so that your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or security of people, places, or vessels. V. Public Participation and Request for Comments We view public participation as essential to effective rulemaking, and will consider all comments and material received during the comment period. Your comment can help shape the outcome of this rulemaking.

33 CFR Part 165

[Docket Number USCG-2023-0904]
RIN 1625-AA11


Safety Zones; Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley Annual and Recurring 
Safety Zones Update

AGENCY: Coast Guard, Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is proposing to amend and update its list of 
recurring safety zone regulations that take place in the Coast Guard 
Sector Ohio Valley area of responsibility (AOR). Through this rule the 
current list of recurring safety zones is proposed to be updated with 
revisions, additional events, and removal of events that no longer take 
place. This proposed rule would reduce administrative costs involved in 
producing separate proposed rules for each individual recurring safety 
zone and serve to provide notice of the known recurring safety zones 
throughout the year. We invite your comments on this proposed 
rulemaking.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast 
Guard on or before February 22, 2024.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2023-0904 using the Federal Decision Making Portal at https://www.regulations.gov. See the ``Public Participation and Request for 
Comments'' portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further 
instructions on submitting comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this 
proposed rulemaking, call or email MST2 Bryan Crane, Sector Ohio 
Valley, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone 502-779-5334, email [email protected].

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

    The Captain of the Port Sector Ohio Valley (COTP) proposes to amend 
section 165.801 of Title 33 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) to 
update our regulations for annual fireworks displays and other events 
in the Eighth Coast Guard District requiring safety zones with respect 
to those in Sector Ohio Valley.
    The current list of annual and recurring safety zones in Sector 
Ohio Valley's area of responsibility (AOR) is published under Table 1 
of 33 CFR 165.801 for annual safety zones in the AOR.
    The Coast Guard proposes to amend and update the safety zone 
regulations under 33 CFR part 165 to include the most up to date list 
of recurring safety zones for events held on or around navigable waters 
within Sector Ohio Valley's AOR. These events include air shows, 
fireworks displays, and other marine related events requiring a limited 
access area restricting vessel traffic for safety purposes. The current 
list in 33 CFR 165.801 needs to be amended to provide new information 
on existing safety zones, and to include new safety zones expected to 
recur annually or biannually, and to remove safety zones that are no 
longer required. Issuing individual regulations for each new safety 
zone, amendment, or removal of an existing safety zone would create 
unnecessary administrative costs and burdens. This single proposed 
rulemaking would considerably reduce administrative overhead and 
provide the public with notice through publication in the Federal 
Register of the upcoming recurring safety zone regulations.
    The Coast Guard encourages the public to participate in this 
proposed rulemaking through the comment process so that any necessary 
changes can be identified and implemented in a timely and efficient 
manner. The Coast Guard will address all public comments accordingly, 
whether through response, additional revision to the regulation, or 
otherwise.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    Part 165 of 33 CFR contains regulations establishing limited access 
areas to restrict vessel traffic for the safety of persons and 
property. Section 165.801 establishes recurring safety zones to 
restrict vessel transit into and through specified areas to protect 
spectators, mariners, and other persons and property from potential 
hazards presented during certain events taking place in the AOR. This 
section requires amendment from time to time to properly reflect the 
recurring safety zone regulations in the AOR. This proposed rule would 
amend and update Sec.  165.801 by revising the current Table 1.
    This proposed rule would add the following 3 safety zones to the 
existing Table 1 section 165.801 as follows:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                Date                      Event/sponsor          Ohio Valley  location         Regulated area

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    These new recurring events would be reflected in the table in the 
general date order in which they will occur, and the current recurring 
events would be reordered, as shown in the proposed regulatory text 
below.
    This proposed rule would amend the following 2 safety zones to the 
existing Table 1 section 165.801 as follows:

                                                                             Indiana
                                                                             shoreline at
                                                                             (Indiana and
                                                                             Kentucky).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The effect of this proposed rule would be to restrict general 
navigation in the safety zones during the events. Vessels intending to 
transit the designated waterway through the safety zones would only be 
allowed to transit the area when the COTP, or a designated 
representative, has deemed it safe to do so or at the completion of the 
event. The proposed annually recurring safety zones are necessary to 
provide for the safety of life on navigable waters during the events.

IV. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed 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 NPRM has not been designated a ``significant 
regulatory action,'' under Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, the NPRM 
has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
    The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this proposed rule 
to be minimal, therefore a full regulatory evaluation is unnecessary. 
This proposed rule would establish safety zones limiting access to 
certain areas

[[Page 4223]]

under 33 CFR part 165 within Sector Ohio Valley's AOR. The effect of 
this proposed rulemaking would not be significant because these safety 
zones would be limited in scope and duration. Additionally, the public 
would be given advance notification through the Federal Register, and/
or Notices of Enforcement and, thus, will be able to plan operations 
around the safety zones. Broadcast Notices to Mariners, Local Notices 
to Mariners, and Safety Marine Information Broadcasts would inform the 
community of these safety zones. Vessel traffic would be allowed to 
request permission from the COTP or a designated representative to 
enter the restricted areas. Broadcast Notices to Mariners, Local 
Notices to Mariners, and Safety Marine Information Broadcasts would 
inform the community of these safety zones. Vessel traffic would be 
allowed to request permission from the COTP or a designated 
representative to enter the restricted areas.

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 
proposed rule would 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 
IV.A above this proposed rule would not have a significant economic 
impact on any vessel owner or operator.
    If you think that your business, organization, or governmental 
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this proposed rule 
would have a significant economic impact on it, please submit a comment 
(see ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it qualifies and how and to 
what degree this rule would economically affect it.
    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 proposed rule. If the proposed 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. The Coast Guard will not 
retaliate against small entities that question or complain about this 
proposed rule or any policy or action of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule would 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 proposed 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 proposed rule does not have tribal implications under 
Executive Order 13175 (Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal 
Governments) because it would 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. If 
you believe this proposed rule has implications for federalism or 
Indian tribes, please call or email the person listed in the FOR 
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section.

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 proposed rule would not 
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the potential effects of 
this proposed rule elsewhere in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed 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 made 
a preliminary determination that this action is one of a category of 
actions that do not individually or cumulatively have a significant 
effect on the human environment. Normally such actions are 
categorically excluded from further review under paragraph L60(a) of 
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, Rev. 1. A 
preliminary 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. We seek any 
comments or information that may lead to the discovery of a significant 
environmental impact from this proposed rule.

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 coordinate protest activities so 
that your message can be received without jeopardizing the safety or 
security of people, places, or vessels.
