SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: I. Table of Abbreviations CFR PO 00000 Code of Federal Regulations Frm 00005 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 85855 COTP Captain of the Port DHS Department of Homeland Security FR Federal Register NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking § Section U.S.C. United States Code II. Background Information and Regulatory History 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 would be impracticable to publish an NPRM and consider comments without delaying promulgation of the rule beyond November 30, 2024, the date of the air show, and it would be contrary to the public interest to delay promulgation of the rule until after the event occurs. The rule needs to be in effect by November 30, 2024, to protect persons and vessels from the hazards associated with this event. Such hazards include the possibility of an aircraft striking a vessel on the surface below the flight zone. 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 impracticable to publish this rule 30 days prior to the date of the event, and contrary to the public interest to delay publication past that date because the rule must be in place to protect persons and vessels from the hazards associated with this event on November 30, 2024. 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 North Carolina (COTP) has determined that potential hazards associated with the Downtown New Bern Airshow, scheduled for 3:00 p.m. through 7:00 p.m. on November 30, 2024, is a safety concern for mariners during the time that aircraft perform aerobatic maneuvers directly above the Neuse River. This rule is necessary to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment from the hazards associated with the airshow above this position of the Neuse River. E:\FR\FM\29OCR1.SGM 29OCR1
