Regulatory History
BILLING CODE 9110–04–P
ACTION:
certain navigable waters in the Laguna
Madre. The safety zone is needed to
protect personnel, vessels, and the
marine environment from potential
hazards created by a firework display
launched from a barge in the Laguna
Madre, South Padre Island, Texas. Entry
of vessels or persons into this zone is
prohibited unless specifically
authorized by the Captain of the Port,
Sector Corpus Christi or a designated
representative.
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. We must establish this
safety zone as soon as possible to
PO 00000
Frm 00026

Sfmt 4700
protect personnel, vessels, and the
marine environment from potential
hazards created by the fireworks
displays occurring daily now.
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 respond to the potential
safety hazards associated with fireworks
launched from a barge in the waters of
the Laguna Madre.
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 Corpus
Christi (COTP) has determined that
potential hazards associated with a
fireworks display will be a safety
concern for anyone within a 700-yard
radius from a stationary barge from
which the fireworks will be launched.
The purpose of this rule is to ensure
safety of vessels and persons on these
navigable waters in the safety zone
while the display of the fireworks takes
place in the Laguna Madre.
IV. Discussion of the Rule
This rule establishes a temporary
safety zone from June 25, 2024, until
August 30, 2024. The safety zone will be
subject to enforcement from the hours of
9:30 p.m. through 11:59 p.m. each day
it is in effect. It is anticipated that
fireworks will only take place each of
the following nights: June 25, 28; July 2,
5, 9, 12, 16, 19, 23, 26, 30; and August
2, 6, 9, 16, 23, 30, but that schedule is
subject to change. The COTP or a
designated representative will inform
the public of the enforcement times and
date for this safety zone through
Broadcast Notices to Mariners, Local
Notices to Mariners, and/or Safety
Marine Information Broadcasts, as
appropriate. The safety zone will
encompass certain navigable waters of
the Laguna Madre and is defined by a
700-yard radius around the launching
platform. The regulated area
encompasses a 700-yard radius from the
following point; 26°6′02.1″ N,
97°10′17.7″ W. No vessel or person is
permitted to enter the temporary safety
zone during the effective period without
obtaining permission from the COTP or
a designated representative, who may be
contacted on Channel 16 VHF–FM
(156.8 MHz) or by telephone at 361–
939–0450.
V. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this rule after
considering numerous statutes and
