II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

    The Cleveland Dragon Boat Festival has occurred annually for over a
decade. Past years events were held on the Cuyahoga River in
conjunction with the Head of the Cuyahoga regatta, for which the
Captain of the Port Buffalo initiated a rulemaking in 2015 (80 FR
51943) to protect spectators, participants, and vessels from the
hazards associated with the rowing event. Due to increased
participation in the Dragon Boat Festival, the dragon boat event has
been relocated to the Black River Landing in Lorain, OH, to preserve
the safety of spectators and vessels.
    On January 31, 2022, the Cleveland Dragon Boat Association notified
the Coast Guard that it will be conducting a dragon boat festival from
8 a.m. through 5 p.m. on September 18, 2022. Typically, the event
occurs on or around the first through third Saturday of September
between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. The dragon boat festival is to
occur south of the East Erie Avenue Bridge in front of the Black River
Landing in Lorain, OH. Hazards from the event include, but are not
limited to, sponsor operated vessels needing to transit the area during
the festival. These vessels are expected to accompany the vessels
competing in the row boat style races. The Captain of the Port Buffalo
(COTP) has determined that potential hazards associated with the
festival would be a safety concern for anyone within this portion of
the Black River.
    The purpose of this rulemaking is to ensure the safety of vessels
and the navigable waters within this portion of the Black River before,
during, and after the scheduled event. The Coast Guard is proposing
this rulemaking under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034 (previously 33
U.S.C. 1231).

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The COTP is proposing to establish a safety zone from 8 a.m. to 5
p.m. on or around the first through third Saturday of September,
according to when the actual event is scheduled. In 2022, the Dragon
Boat Festival will occur on September 18. The safety zone would cover
all navigable waters south of the East Erie Avenue Bridge in front of
the Black River Landing in Lorain, OH. The duration of the zone is
intended to ensure the safety of vessels and these navigable waters
before, during, and after the scheduled dragon boat festival. 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 Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, the NPRM
has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
    This regulatory action determination is based on size, location,
and duration

of the proposed rule. This Safety Zone would restrict navigation on and
through this small designated portion of the Black River for nine hours
on one day.

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 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 nine hours that would prohibit entry within the area south
of the East Erie Avenue Bridge in front of the Black River Landing.
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.

Dimethyldithiocarbamate Salts; Notice of Receipt of Requests to
Voluntarily Cancel or to Amend to Terminate Uses of Certain Pesticide
Registrations

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION:  Notice.

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

SUMMARY:  In accordance with section 6(f)(1) of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, EPA is
issuing a notice of receipt of requests by the registrants to
voluntarily cancel and/or amend their registrations to terminate uses
of certain products containing the pesticides sodium
dimethyldithiocarbamate and potassium dimethyldithiocarbamate. The
requests would terminate dimethyldithiocarbamate salts use in or on
pressure-treated wood preservatives, sapstain, paints, coatings, and
cutting fluids, and prohibit ``open pour'' applications of one product.
The request(s) would not terminate the last dimethyldithiocarbamate
salts products registered for use in the United States. EPA intends to
grant these requests at the close of the comment period for this
announcement unless the Agency receives substantive comments within the
comment period that would merit its further review of the requests, or
unless the registrants withdraw their requests within this period. Upon
acceptance of these requests, any sale, distribution, or use of
products listed in this notice will be permitted only if such sale,
distribution, or use is consistent with the terms as described in the
final order.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this Action Apply to Me?

    This action is directed to the public in general, and may be of
interest to a wide range of stakeholders including environmental, human
health, and agricultural advocates; the chemical industry; pesticide
users; and members of the public interested in the sale, distribution,
or use of pesticides. Since others also may be interested, the Agency

affected by this action. If you have any questions regarding the
applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the person
listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

B. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

    1.  Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
    i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).

    ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
    iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.
    iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
    v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.

suggest alternatives.
    vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
    viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.

II. Background on the Receipt of Requests to Cancel and/or Amend
Registrations to Delete Uses

    This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from registrants
Buckman Laboratories, Inc. and Akzo Nobel Surface Chemistry LLC to
cancel one sodium dimethyldithiocarbamate use and to amend to terminate
uses of four sodium dimethyldithiocarbamate and potassium
dimethyldithiocarbamate product registrations. Dimethyldithiocarbamate
salts are used as materials preservatives and water antifoulants in a
wide range of water systems, including industrial cooling/air washer
water and oil recovery fluids. In letters dated June 6, 2009 and June
1, 2009, respectively, Buckman and Akzo Nobel requested that EPA cancel
affected product registrations and/or to amend to terminate uses of
pesticide product registrations identified in Tables 1 and 2.
Specifically, a risk assessment performed for the
Dimethyldithiocarbamate Salts RED identified human health and
environmental risks of concern for several current uses, and suggested
data needs that EPA will request in order to support the reregistration
of dimethyldithiocarbamate salts. The registrants then identified
specific uses that they would not support through the data-gathering
process and submitted letters of request to amend/or remove the related
product labels. The uses to be canceled are all wood-preservative uses,
including pressure-treated wood and sapstain, all paints and coatings
preservatives, and one registrant's metalworking fluids uses. One
product with only wood-preservative uses will be canceled. One product
label will be amended to prohibit ``open pour'' application of the
product, and restrict application to ``closed-system'' methods such as
water-soluble packets. The requests would not terminate the last
dimethyldithiocarbamate salts products registered for use in the United
States.

III. What Action is the Agency Taking?

     This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from registrants
to cancel and/or amend to terminate uses of sodium
dimethyldithiocarbamate and potassium dimethyldithiocarbamate product
registrations. The affected products and the registrants making the
requests are identified in Tables 1-3 of this unit.
     Under section 6(f)(1)(A) of FIFRA, registrants may request, at any
time, that their pesticide registrations be canceled or amended to
terminate one or more pesticide uses. Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA
requires that before acting on a request for voluntary cancellation,
EPA must provide a 30-day public comment period on the request for
voluntary cancellation or use termination. In addition, section
6(f)(1)(C) of FIFRA requires that EPA provide a 180-day comment period
on a request for voluntary cancellation or termination of any minor
agricultural use before granting the request, unless:
    1. The registrants request a waiver of the comment period, or
    2. The Administrator determines that continued use of the pesticide
would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment.
     The dimethyldithiocarbamate salts registrants have not requested
that EPA waive the 180-day comment period. EPA will provide a 180-day
comment period on the proposed requests.
     Unless a request is withdrawn by the registrant within 180 days of
publication of this notice, or if the Agency determines that there are
substantive comments that warrant further review of this request, an
order will be issued canceling and/or amending the affected
registrations in the following tables 1 and 2.

IV. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?

    Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a pesticide
product may at any time request that any of its pesticide registrations
be canceled or amended to terminate one or more uses. FIFRA further
provides that, before acting on the request, EPA must publish a notice
of receipt of any such request in the Federal Register. Thereafter,
following the public comment period, the Administrator may approve such
a request.

V. Procedures for Withdrawal of Request and Considerations for
Reregistration of Sodium Dimethyldithiocarbamate and Potassium
Dimethyldithiocarbamate

    Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for cancellation must
submit such withdrawal in writing to the person listed under FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, postmarked before March 15, 2010. This
written withdrawal of the request for cancellation will apply only to
the applicable FIFRA section 6(f)(1) request listed in this notice. If
the products(s) have been subject to a previous cancellation action,
the effective date of cancellation and all other provisions of any
earlier cancellation action are controlling.
