Regulatory Information
On May 24, 2011, we published a notice of proposed rulemaking
entitled Safety Zones; Annual Events Requiring Safety Zones in the
Captain of the Port Lake Michigan Zone in the Federal Register (76 FR
30072). We received no comments on the proposed rule. No public meeting
was requested, and none was held.
Background and Purpose
Currently, 33 CFR 165.929 lists eighty-three different locations in
the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone at which safety zones have
been permanently established. Each of these eighty-three safety zones
correspond to an annually recurring marine event. On April 1, 2011, the
Coast Guard refined the internal boundaries of its Ninth District,
resulting in changes to the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone.
Consequently, eleven of the aforementioned eighty-three safety zones
are now located within the Captain of the Port Sault Ste. Marie zone.
In addition to the boundary change initiated by the Coast Guard, the
details of four of the annually recurring events have changed. Finally,
the Captain of the Port, Sector Lake Michigan has determined that three
additional recurring marine events require the implementation of
permanent safety zones.
Discussion of Comments and Changes
No comments were received regarding this rule.
Discussion of Rule
This rule amends the regulations found in 33 CFR 165.929, Annual
Events requiring safety zones in the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan
zone. Specifically, this rule will revise Sec. 165.929 in its
entirety. The revision will include the deletion of eleven of the
safety zones; the modification of the name, location, and enforcement
periods of four other safety zones; and the addition of three new
safety zones. These safety zones are necessary to protect vessels and
people from the hazards associated with firework displays, boat races,
and other marine events. Such hazards include obstructions to the
navigable channels, explosive dangers associated with fireworks, debris
falling into the water, high speed boat racing, and general congestion
of waterways. Although this rule will remain in effect year round, the
safety zones within it will be enforced only immediately before,
during, and after each corresponding marine event.
The Captain of the Port, Sector Lake Michigan, will notify the
public when the safety zones in this rule will be enforced. In keeping
with 33 CFR 165.7(a), the Captain of the Port, Sector Lake Michigan,
will use all appropriate means to notify the affected segments of the
public. This will include, as practicable, publication in the Federal
Register, Broadcast Notice to Mariners and/or Local Notice to Mariners.
The Captain of the Port, Sector Lake Michigan, will, as practicable,
issue a Broadcast Notice to Mariners notifying the public when any
enforcement period is cancelled.
Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within each of the safety
zones is prohibited during an enforcement period unless authorized by
the Captain of the Port, Sector Lake Michigan, or his or her designated
representative. All persons and vessels permitted to enter one of the
safety zones established by this rule shall comply with the
instructions of the Captain of the Port, Sector Lake Michigan, or his
or her designated representative. The Captain of the Port, Sector Lake
Michigan, or his or her designated representative may be contacted via
VHF Channel 16.
Regulatory Analysis
We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on 13 of these statutes or executive orders.
Regulatory Planning and Review
This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f)
of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, and does not
require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section
6(a)(3) of that Order. The Office of Management and Budget has not
reviewed it under that Order. It is not ``significant'' under the
regulatory policies and procedures of the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS). We conclude that this rule is not a significant
regulatory action because we anticipate that it will have minimal
impact on the economy, will not interfere with other agencies, will not
adversely alter the budget of any grant or loan recipients, and will
not raise any novel legal or policy issues. The safety zones created by
this rule will be relatively small and enforced for relatively short
time. Also, each safety zone is designed to minimize its impact on
navigable waters. Furthermore, each safety zone has been designed to
allow vessels to transit unrestricted to portions of the waterways not
affected by the safety zones. Thus, restrictions on vessel movements
within that particular area are expected to be minimal. Under certain
conditions, moreover, vessels may still transit through each safety
zone when permitted by the Captain of the Port, Sector Lake Michigan.
On the whole, the Coast Guard expects insignificant adverse impact to
mariners from the activation of these safety zones.
Small Entities
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have
considered whether this rule would have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities. 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
would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. This rule would affect the following
[[Page 41067]]
entities, some of which might be small entities: The owners and
operators of vessels intending to transit or anchor in any one of the
below established safety zones while the safety zone is being enforced.
These safety zones will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: Each
safety zone in this rule will be in effect for only a few hours within
any given 24 hour period. Each of the safety zones will be in effect
only once per year. Furthermore, these safety zones have been designed
to allow traffic to pass safely around each zone. Moreover, vessels
will be allowed to pass through each zone at the discretion of the
Captain of the Port, Sector Lake Michigan, or his or her designated
representative.
If you think that your business, organization, or governmental
jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this 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.
Assistance for Small Entities
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 so that they can better evaluate
its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking process.
Collection of Information
This rule calls for no new collection of information under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).
Federalism
A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial
direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this rule under
that Order and have determined that it does not have implications for
federalism.
On May 25, 2011, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rule making entitled Safety Zones; Annual events requiring safety zones
in the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone in the Federal Register
(76 FR 12374). The Coast Guard received 0 public submissions commenting
on the impact to small entities by this rule. There have been no
changes made to the rule as proposed.
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 would not result
in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.
On May 25, 2011, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rule making entitled Safety Zones; Annual events requiring safety zones
in the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone in the Federal Register
(76 FR 12374). The Coast Guard received 0 public submissions commenting
on the impact to small entities by this rule. There have been no
changes made to the rule as proposed.
Taking of Private Property
This rule will not affect the taking of private property or
otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630,
Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected
Property Rights.
On May 25, 2011, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rule making entitled Safety Zones; Annual events requiring safety zones
in the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone in the Federal Register
(76 FR 12374). The Coast Guard received 0 public submissions commenting
on the impact to small entities by this rule. There have been no
changes made to the rule as proposed.
Civil Justice Reform
This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation,
eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.
On May 25, 2011, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rule making entitled Safety Zones; Annual events requiring safety zones
in the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone in the Federal Register
(76 FR 12374). The Coast Guard received 0 public submissions commenting
on the impact to small entities by this rule. There have been no
changes made to the rule as proposed.
Protection of Children
We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule
is not an economically significant rule and would not create an
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that might
disproportionately affect children.
On May 25, 2011, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rule making entitled Safety Zones; Annual events requiring safety zones
in the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone in the Federal Register
(76 FR 12374). The Coast Guard received 0 public submissions commenting
on the impact to small entities by this rule. There have been no
changes made to the rule as proposed.
Indian Tribal Governments
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.
On May 25, 2011, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rule making entitled Safety Zones; Annual events requiring safety zones
in the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone in the Federal Register
(76 FR 12374). The Coast Guard received 0 public submissions commenting
on the impact to small entities by this rule. There have been no
changes made to the rule as proposed.
Energy Effects
We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ``significant
energy action'' under that order because it is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to
have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use
of energy. The Administrator of the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy
action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects
under Executive Order 13211.
On May 25, 2011, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rule making entitled Safety Zones; Annual events requiring safety zones
in the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone in the Federal Register
(76 FR 12374). The Coast Guard received 0 public submissions commenting
on the impact to small entities by this rule. There have been no
changes made to the rule as proposed.
[[Page 41068]]
Technical Standards
The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards
in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress,
through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why
using these standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical
standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance, design, or
operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related management
systems practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus
standards bodies.
This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.
On May 25, 2011, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed
rule making entitled Safety Zones; Annual events requiring safety zones
in the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone in the Federal Register
(76 FR 12374). The Coast Guard received 0 public submissions commenting
on the impact to small entities by this rule. There have been no
changes made to the rule as proposed.
Environment
We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have concluded
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 is categorically excluded, under figure 2-1, paragraph (34)(g), of
the Instruction because it involves the establishment,
disestablishment, and changing of safety zones.
