AGENCY:
The Department of the
Treasury (‘‘Treasury’’), Bureau of the
Fiscal Service (‘‘Fiscal Service’’) is
correcting a final rule that was
published in the Federal Register on
February 21, 2024, to amend Fiscal
Service’s Management of Federal
Agency Disbursements regulation. The
regulation implements a statutory
mandate requiring the Federal
Government to deliver non-tax
payments by electronic funds transfer
(EFT) unless Treasury determines that a
waiver of the requirement is
appropriate. The final rule strengthens
the EFT requirement by narrowing the
scope of existing waivers from the EFT
mandate or requiring agencies to obtain
Fiscal Service’s approval to invoke
certain existing waivers.
DATES: The final rule is effective March
22, 2024.

Special Local Regulation; Mission Bay,

Coast Guard, Department of
Homeland Security (DHS).
ACTION: Temporary final rule.
AGENCY:
The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary special local
regulation for San Diego Crew Classic
that will be held in Mission Bay, San
Diego, CA. This action is necessary to
provide for the safety of life on these
navigable waters during the event. This
rule would prohibit spectators from
anchoring, blocking, loitering, or
transiting through the event area unless
authorized by the Captain of the Port
San Diego or a designated
representative.
DATES: This rule is effective from 2:30
p.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday, April 5, 2024.

waters while the race is occurring. No
vessel or person will be permitted to
enter the special local regulation
without obtaining permission from the
COTP or a designated representative.
II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
The Coast Guard is issuing this
temporary rule under authority in 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(B). This statutory
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.’’ The Coast Guard finds that
good cause exists for not publishing a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because we
must establish this special local
regulation by April 5, 2024. The Coast
Guard did not receive final details
regarding the event until March 5, 2024.
As such, it is impracticable to publish
an NPRM because we lack sufficient
time to provide a reasonable comment
period and then consider those
comments before issuing the rule. This
regulation is necessary to ensure the
safety of life on the navigable waters of
Mission Bay during the marine event.
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 public
interest because immediate action is
needed to ensure the safety of life on the
navigable waters of Mission Bay, CA
during the marine event on April 5,
2024.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70041. The
Captain of the Port Sector San Diego
(COTP) has determined that the large
presence of vessels in Mission Bay
associated with the San Diego Crew
Classic poses a potential safety concern.
This rule is needed to protect persons,
vessels, and the marine environment in
the navigable waters within San Diego
while the event is occurring.

IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a special local
regulation from 2:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. on
Friday, April 5, 2024. The special local
regulation will cover all navigable
waters encompassing the race route on
a pre-determined course through
Mission Bay, San Diego, CA. The
duration of the zone is intended to
protect personnel, vessels, and the
marine environment in these navigable
VerDate Sep<11>2014

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, duration,
and time of day of the regulated area.
This safety zone will last less than 3
hours only in Mission Bay, and vessels
can either transit around or seek COTP
permission on how to safely transit the
regulated area.
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 special
local regulation 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
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
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,
E:\FR\FM\14MRR1.SGM
14MRR1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 51 / Thursday, March 14, 2024 / Rules and Regulations
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
special local regulation lasting from 2:30
p.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday, April 5, 2024.
It is categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph L61 of
Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction
Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 1.
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.

it is impracticable to publish an NPRM because we lack sufficient time
to provide a reasonable comment period and then consider those comments
before issuing the rule. This regulation is necessary to ensure the
safety of life on the navigable waters of Mission Bay during the marine

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 public interest because immediate action
is needed to ensure the safety of life on the navigable waters of
Mission Bay, CA during the marine event on April 5, 2024.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 46 U.S.C.
70041. The Captain of the Port Sector San Diego (COTP) has determined
that the large presence of vessels in Mission Bay associated with the
San Diego Crew Classic poses a potential safety concern. This rule is
needed to protect persons, vessels, and the marine environment in the
navigable waters within San Diego while the event is occurring.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a special local regulation from 2:30 p.m. to
5 p.m. on Friday, April 5, 2024. The special local regulation will
cover all navigable waters encompassing the race route on a pre-
determined course through Mission Bay, San Diego, CA. The duration of
the zone is intended to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine
environment in these navigable waters while the race is occurring. No
vessel or person will be permitted to enter the special local
regulation without obtaining permission from the COTP or a designated
representative.
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, duration, and time of day of the regulated area. This safety
zone will last less than 3 hours only in Mission Bay, and vessels can
either transit around or seek COTP permission on how to safely transit
the regulated area.
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
special local regulation 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,
[[Page 18545]]
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
special local regulation lasting from 2:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday,
April 5, 2024.
It is categorically excluded from further review under paragraph
L61 of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01,
Rev. 1.
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.
