[Docket No. USCG-2017-0096]
RIN 1625-AA08

Special Local Regulation; Red Bull Air Race--San Diego 2017; San
Diego Bay, CA

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is temporarily establishing special local
regulations for the Red Bull Air Race--San Diego 2017 event held on the
navigable waters of San Diego Bay, California. This action is necessary
to provide for the safety of life on navigable waters during the event.
This

action will restrict vessel traffic in specific waters of San Diego Bay
from April 14, 2017, from 8:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., from April 15, 2017
from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and from April 16, 2017 from 10:00 a.m.
to 4:30 p.m. We invite your comments on this rulemaking.

DATES: This rule is effective from April 14, 2017 through April 16,
2017.

II. Regulatory Information

    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 finds good cause 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 NPRM with respect to this rule as
there is not enough time to complete notice and comment rulemaking
before the event is scheduled to take place due to specific event
details that were not provided by the event sponsor in time. For this
reason, publishing an NPRM would be impracticable.
    We are issuing this rule, and under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for making it effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal Register. This rule is necessary
for the safety of life on these navigable waters during the airplane
race. For the reasons above, it would be impracticable to delay this
rule to provide a full 30 days notice.

III. Background, Purpose and Legal Basis

    The Red Bull Air Race--San Diego 2017 event will involve low flying
airplanes racing through a predetermined course of inflatable pylons
situated on anchored barges and positioned in certain portions of San
Diego Bay. The COTP San Diego has determined that potential hazards
associated with the air race event would be a safety concern for anyone
intending to operate on certain waters of San Diego Bay.
    The purpose of this rulemaking is to ensure the safety of event
participants, spectators and transiting vessels on the navigable waters
of San Diego Bay before, during, and after the scheduled event. 33
U.S.C. 1233, authorizes the Coast Guard to establish and define special
local regulations to promote the safety of life on navigable waters.

IV. Discussion of the Rule

    In this temporary final rule, the regulations in 33 CFR 100.1101
will be temporarily inserted for Table 1, Item 19 of that section in
order to reflect that the special local regulation will be effective
and enforced from April 14, 2017, from 8:00 a.m.to 6:30 p.m., from
April 15, 2017 from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and from April 16, 2017
from 10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. This addition is needed to ensure that
adequate regulations are in place to protect the safety vessels and
individuals that may be present in the regulated area. No other portion
of Table 1 of Sec.  100.1101 or other provisions in Sec.  100.1101
shall be affected by this regulation.
    The special local regulations are necessary to provide for the
safety of the crew, spectators, participants, and other vessels and
users of the San Diego Bay waterway. Persons and vessels will be
prohibited from anchoring, blocking, loitering, or impeding within this
regulated waterway unless authorized by the COTP, or his designated
representative, during the event times. Additionally, the Patrol
Commander (PATCOM) will control the movement of all vessels within the
regulated area and will restrict vessels from entering the regulated
area. Before the effective period, the Coast Guard will publish
information on the event in the weekly LNM. The regulatory text appears
at the end of this document.

V. Regulatory Analysis

    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

    E.O.s 12866 (``Regulatory Planning and Review'') and 13563
(``Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review'') 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 including potential economic, environmental,
public health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity.
E.O.13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and
benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting
flexibility. Executive Order 13771 (``Reducing Regulation and
Controlling Regulatory Costs''), directs agencies to reduce regulation
and control regulatory costs and provides that ``for every one new
regulation issued, at least two prior regulations be identified for
elimination, and that the cost of planned regulations be prudently
managed and controlled through a budgeting process.''
    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has not designated this
rule a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) of Executive
Order 12866. Accordingly, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has
not reviewed it.
    As this rule is not a significant regulatory action, this rule is
exempt from the requirements of Executive Order 13771. See OMB's
Memorandum titled ``Interim Guidance Implementing Section 2 of the
Executive Order of January 30, 2017 titled `Reducing Regulation and
Controlling Regulatory Costs' '' (February 2, 2017).
    This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, duration, and time-of-day of the special local regulation.
The Coast Guard will publish a LNM, issue a BNM via VHF-FM marine
channel 16 that details the vessel restrictions of the regulated area,
and distribute a special local regulation flyer for public use.

B. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA), 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. This rule will affect the
following entities, some of which may be small entities: The owners or
operators of vessels intending to transit or anchor in the impacted
portion of San Diego Bay, CA, from April 14, 2017, from 8:00 a.m.to
6:30 p.m., from April 15, 2017 from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and from
April 16, 2017 from 10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
    This rule will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities for the following reasons: Vessel
traffic will be allowed to pass through the area with permission of the
COTP, or his designated representative, during a predefined schedule
arranged by the event sponsor, and the special local regulation is
limited in size and duration. The Coast Guard will issue maritime
advisories widely available to all waterway users. Before the effective
period, the Coast Guard will publish event information on the internet
in the weekly LNM marine information report. 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.
    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
contact 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 rule or any policy or action of the
Coast Guard.

C. 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).

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Government

    A rule has implications for federalism under E.O. 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 determined
that it is consistent with the fundamental federalism principles and
preemption requirements described in E.O. 13132.
    Also, this 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 rule has implications for federalism or Indian tribes,
please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT
section above.

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, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.

F. 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 (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 establishment of marine event special local regulations
on the navigable waters of San Diego Bay. It is categorically excluded
from further review under paragraph 34(h) of Figure 2-1 of the
Commandant Instruction. A Record of Environmental Consideration (REC)
supporting this determination is available in the docket where
indicated under 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 rule.

G. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
Protesters are asked to contact 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. What Information is EPA Particularly Interested In?

    Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of PRA, EPA specifically solicits
comments and information to enable it to:
    1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility.
    2. Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency's estimates of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected.
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through the

use of appropriate automated electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or other forms of information
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. In
particular, EPA is requesting comments from very small businesses
(those that employ less than 25) on examples of specific additional
efforts that EPA could make to reduce the paperwork burden for very
small businesses affected by this collection.

II. What Should I Consider when I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

    You may find the following suggestions helpful for preparing your
comments:
    1. Explain your views as clearly as possible and provide specific
examples.
    2. Describe any assumptions that you used.
    3. Provide copies of any technical information and/or data you used
that support your views.
    4. If you estimate potential burden or costs, explain how you
arrived at the estimate that you provide.
    5. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns.
    6. Offer alternative ways to improve the collection activity.
    7. Make sure to submit your comments by the deadline identified
under DATES.
    8. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, be sure to identify the docket
ID number assigned to this action in the subject line on the first page
of your response. You may also provide the name, date, and Federal
Register citation.

III. What Information Collection Activity or ICR Does this Action Apply
to?

    Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR are
those businesses that fall under the North American Industrial
Classification System (NAICS) codes 325, chemical manufacturers and
processors, and 324110, petroleum refineries.
    Title: Chemical-Specific Rules, TSCA Section 8(a).
    ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1198.09, OMB Control No. 2070-0067.
    ICR status: This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on January
31, 2011. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of information, unless it displays
a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's
regulations in title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), after
appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR
part 9, are displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or
by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection
instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers
for certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
    Abstract: The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) section 8(a)
authorizes the Administrator of EPA to promulgate rules that require
persons who manufacture, import, or process chemical substances and
mixtures, or who propose to manufacture, import, or process chemical
substances and mixtures, to maintain such records and submit such
reports to EPA as may be reasonably required. Any chemical covered by
TSCA for which EPA or another Federal agency has a reasonable need for
information and which cannot be satisfied via other sources is a proper
potential subject for a chemical-specific TSCA section 8(a) rulemaking.
Information that may be collected under TSCA section 8(a) includes, but
is not limited to, chemical names, categories of use, production
volume, byproducts of chemical production, existing data on deaths and
environmental effects, exposure data, and disposal information.
Generally, EPA uses chemical-specific information under TSCA section
8(a) to evaluate the potential for adverse human health and
environmental effects caused by the manufacture, importation,
processing, use or disposal of identified chemical substances and
mixtures. Additionally, EPA may use TSCA section 8(a) information to
assess the need or set priorities for testing and/or further regulatory
action. To the extent that reported information is not considered
confidential, environmental groups, environmental justice advocates,
state and local government entities and other members of the public
will also have access to this information for their own use.
    Responses to the collection of information are mandatory (see 40
CFR part 704). Respondents may claim all or part of a notice
confidential. EPA will disclose information that is covered by a claim
of confidentiality only to the extent permitted by, and in accordance
with, the procedures in TSCA section 14 and 40 CFR part 2.
    Burden statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 68.8
hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This
includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire,
install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of
collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information;
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train
personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search
data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and
transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
    The ICR provides a detailed explanation of this estimate, which is
only briefly summarized here:
    Estimated total number of potential respondents: 4.
    Frequency of response: On occasion.
    Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 1.
    Estimated total annual burden hours: 275 hours.
    Estimated total annual costs: $14,080. This includes an estimated
burden cost of $14,080 and an estimated cost of $0 for capital
investment or maintenance and operational costs.

IV. Are There Changes in the Estimates from the Last Approval?

    There is no change in the total estimated respondent burden
compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB.

V. What is the Next Step in the Process for this ICR?

    EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as
appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for
review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. EPA will issue another
Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce
the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit
additional comments to OMB. If you have any questions about this ICR or
the approval process, please contact the technical person listed under
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
