cyber incidents to TSA.9 It is for this
reason that CISA specifically proposed
describing a covered entity as an ‘‘entity
[that] is required by the Transportation
Security Administration to report cyber
incidents’’ in proposed 6 CFR
226.2(b)(14), so that any entities, such as
pipeline facilities or systems, that are
required to currently report cyber
incidents to TSA under Security
Directives would also be considered
covered entities that are required to
report under CIRCIA.
For the surface transportation sector,
TSA currently requires reporting of
cyber incidents to CISA by owner/
operators of certain freight railroads,
passenger railroads, rail transit systems,
and hazardous and natural gas pipeline
facilities and systems pursuant to
Security Directives issued under the
authority of 49 U.S.C. 114(l)(2).10 Under
these Security Directives, TSA notifies
owner/operators of pipeline facilities or
systems directly if the requirements in
the Security Directive are applicable to
them. Using a risk-based approach, a
small percentage within each mode of
transportation are required to report
cybersecurity incidents, but these
entities represent a significant portion of
capacity, throughput, and ridership for
each of these modes. As indicated in the
CIRCIA NPRM, and as described in this
notice, CISA proposes that all such
owners/operators of pipeline facilities
and systems identified by TSA and
required to report cybersecurity
incidents pursuant to TSA Security
Directives are considered covered
entities under 6 CFR 226.2(b)(14) until
TSA finalizes its Enhancing Surface
Cyber Risk Management rule.
To address the concern regarding
cross-referencing a regulatory section
that does not currently exist, CISA is
issuing this correction to remove the
reference to that specific regulatory
section and, instead, propose criterion
to make clear that CIRCIA’s description
of a covered entity for pipeline facilities
or systems includes any entity that is
currently required by TSA to report
cyber incidents under a Security
Directive or is otherwise identified as
required to report under TSA’s final
regulations. For owner/operators of
pipeline facilities or systems not
currently subject to reporting
requirements under TSA’s Security
Directives, it is CISA’s understanding,
through consultation with TSA, that
TSA intends to continue using a riskbased approach in determining entities
subject to its regulations, similar to its
Security Directive approach and that

applicability of cyber incident reporting
requirements beyond the existing
Security Directives will not be
substantially expanded. TSA’s Security
Directives indicate that approximately
100 pipeline systems are considered the
most critical.11 CISA acknowledges the
total number of owner/operators may
slightly change consistent with an
updated risk analysis developed for
purposes of TSA’s proposed rule.
However, CISA continues to believe the
Regulatory Impact Analysis for the
CIRCIA rulemaking is an accurate
estimate insomuch that the applicability
of the TSA covered entities will
continue to be approximately 115
entities.12
As mentioned in the CIRCIA NPRM,
CISA believes that aligning CIRCIA’s
Applicability section with the
population of entities from which TSA
requires cyber incident reporting or at
which TSA requires the implementation
of enhanced cybersecurity measures is
appropriate for CIRCIA and consistent
with the factors contained in 6 U.S.C.
681b(c)(1). CISA will continue to
coordinate with TSA throughout the
rulemaking process to harmonize
CIRCIA’s Applicability section with
TSA, to the maximum extent
practicable.

Coast Guard, DHS.
Notice of proposed rulemaking.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard is proposing
to establish a temporary safety zone for
certain waters of Umatilla Marina. This
action is necessary to provide for the
safety of life on these navigable waters
near Irrigon, OR, during a fireworks
display on July 27, 2024. This proposed
rulemaking would prohibit persons and
vessels from entering the safety zone
unless authorized by the Captain of the
Port Columbia River or a designated
representative. We invite your
comments on this proposed rulemaking.
DATES: Comments and related material
must be received by the Coast Guard on
or before July 3, 2024.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments
identified by docket number USCG–
2024–0449 using the Federal DecisionMaking Portal at https://

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
§ Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background, Purpose, and Legal
Basis
On March 6, 2024, Western Display
Fireworks, LTD notified the Coast Guard
that it will be conducting a fireworks
display from 9:30 to 11:00 p.m. on July
27, 2024. The fireworks are to be
launched from a site on land at Marina
Park in Irrigon, OR. Hazards from
firework displays include accidental
discharge of fireworks, dangerous
projectiles, and falling hot embers or
other debris. The Captain of the Port
Columbia River (COTP) has determined
that potential hazards associated with
the fireworks would be a safety concern
for anyone within a 550-foot radius of
the launch site before, during, or after
the fireworks display.
The purpose of this rulemaking is to
ensure the safety of vessels and the
navigable waters within a 550-foot
radius of the fireworks discharge site
before, during, and after the scheduled
event. The Coast Guard is proposing this
rulemaking under authority in 46 U.S.C.
70034.
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
III. Discussion of Proposed Rule
The COTP is proposing to establish a
safety zone from 9:30 to 11:00 p.m. on
July 27, 2024. The safety zone would
cover all navigable waters within 550
feet of the launch site located at
approximately 45°54′3.72″ N
119°29′15.36″ W at Marina Park in
Irrigon, Oregon. The duration of the
zone is intended to ensure the safety of
vessels and these navigable waters
before, during, and after the scheduled
9:30 to 11:00 p.m. fireworks display. No
vessel or person would be permitted to
enter the safety zone without obtaining
permission from the COTP or a
designated representative. The
regulatory text we are proposing appears
at the end of this document.
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.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:22 May 31, 2024
Jkt 262001
This NPRM 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, the NPRM 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 created by this proposed rule is
designed to minimize its impact on
navigable waters. The safety zone would
impact approximately a 550-foot area of
Marina Park and is not anticipated to
exceed 1.5 hours in duration. Thus,
restrictions on vessel movement within
that particular area are expected to be
minimal. Moreover, under certain
conditions vessels may still transit
through the safety zone when permitted
by the COTP. The Coast Guard would
issue a Notice to Mariners about the
zone, and the rule would allow vessels
to seek permission to enter the zone.
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
PO 00000

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
E:\FR\FM\03JNP1.SGM

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. This proposed
rule involves a safety zone lasting 1.5
hours that would prohibit entry within
550 feet of a launch point located at
Marina Park. 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.

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec. Section
U.S.C. United States Code
II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis
On March 6, 2024, Western Display Fireworks, LTD notified the Coast
Guard that it will be conducting a fireworks display from 9:30 to 11:00
p.m. on July 27, 2024. The fireworks are to be launched from a site on
land at Marina Park in Irrigon, OR. Hazards from firework displays
include accidental discharge of fireworks, dangerous projectiles, and
falling hot embers or other debris. The Captain of the Port Columbia
River (COTP) has determined that potential hazards associated with the
fireworks would be a safety concern for anyone within a 550-foot radius
of the launch site before, during, or after the fireworks display.
The purpose of this rulemaking is to ensure the safety of vessels
and the navigable waters within a 550-foot radius of the fireworks
discharge site before, during, and after the scheduled event. The Coast
Guard is proposing this rulemaking under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034.
III. Discussion of Proposed Rule
The COTP is proposing to establish a safety zone from 9:30 to 11:00
p.m. on July 27, 2024. The safety zone would cover all navigable waters
within 550 feet of the launch site located at approximately
45[deg]54'3.72'' N 119[deg]29'15.36'' W at Marina Park in Irrigon,
Oregon. The duration of the zone is intended to ensure the safety of
vessels and these navigable waters before, during, and after the
scheduled 9:30 to 11:00 p.m. fireworks display. No vessel or person
would be permitted to enter the safety zone without obtaining
permission from the COTP or a designated representative. The regulatory
text we are proposing appears at the end of this document.
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 section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, as
amended by Executive Order 14094 (Modernizing Regulatory Review).
Accordingly, the NPRM 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 created by
this proposed rule is designed to minimize its impact on navigable
waters. The safety zone would impact approximately a 550-foot area of
Marina Park and is not anticipated to exceed 1.5 hours in duration.
Thus, restrictions on vessel movement within that particular area are
expected to be minimal. Moreover, under certain conditions vessels may
still transit through the safety zone when permitted by the COTP. The
Coast Guard would issue a Notice to Mariners about the zone, and the
rule would allow vessels to seek permission to enter the zone.
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
[[Page 47474]]
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. This proposed rule involves a safety zone lasting 1.5
hours that would prohibit entry within 550 feet of a launch point
located at Marina Park. 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.
