                  Summary of Regulatory Flexibility Analyses
                      Conducted in Coordination with the
           Economic Impacts Assessment for Proposed Revisions to the
             Export Provisions of the Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) Rule

                 Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery

Regulatory Flexibility Act Requirements

      The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA), as amended by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (SBREFA), requires EPA to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis for any rule that will have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities (i.e., small businesses, small governments, and small non-profit organizations).  However, a regulatory flexibility analysis is not required if the Administrator certifies that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.  SBREFA further requires EPA to provide a statement of the factual basis for certifying that a rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.

Summary Discussion of Analyses and Results

      The Agency has examined the final rule's potential effects on small entities as required by the RFA/SBREFA.  We have determined that the rule will not result in a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities.  This determination was made by comparing annual compliance costs under the rule to the relative average annual sales of small businesses in the industrial sectors most likely to be affected by the rule.  According to the U.S. Small Business Administration's small business size standards, firms in most of these industry sectors are classified as a "small business" if they have fewer than 750 employees.  However, for purposes of this analysis, we determined that this threshold may be too high and could mask the potential effects on the smallest, most vulnerable firms.  Therefore, the Agency relied upon a far more conservative approach and selected a threshold for firms with fewer than 20 employees instead of the official standard of 750.

      As summarized in the Executive Summary of the Economic Impact Assessment conducted in Nov. 2011 for the proposed revisions to the Export Provisions of the Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) Rule, the estimated costs of the rule are very minor.  Our analyses found that only approximately 138 CRT Exporters would be affected by the proposed revisions (including roughly 12 whom export CRTs for recycling with the remaining 126 exporting CRTs for purposes of reuse).  The proposed revisions vary for those exporters that recycle vs. those that reuse CRTs.  Annual compliance costs for all CRTs exporters (including both those that export for purposes of recycling and/or reuse) ranged from $2,286 to $4,453 in the baseline.  Then, there is an additional total annual cost of approximately $2,500 for just those 12 firms that export CRTs for recycling. Lastly, the one-time cost expected to be incurred by all exporters to familiarize themselves with the rule totals $39,000.  When annualized and considered on a per facility basis, the costs for "CRT Reusers" ranges from $57.54 to $72.51 per facility, while that for "CRT Recyclers" ranges from $265.87 to $280.84.  As reflected in Exhibit 1, when considered together this results in costs as low as $57.54 and as high as $280.84 (depending on the type of exports).

      Further displayed in Exhibit 1 are typical numbers of facilities in 4 specific industrial sectors viewed to be most representative of CRT Exporters.  The numbers shown reflect estimates of the numbers of facilities with less than 20 employees, as well as their Annual Sales.  As shown in Exhibit 1, for firms with fewer than 20 employees, the annual compliance cost as a percentage of annual sales is less than 0.1 percent. Therefore, the final rule will not have a significant economic impact on these firms. Based on the above, the Agency has determined that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.

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

    The Exchange notes that parallel changes are proposed to be made to
the rules of NYSE Amex LLC.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See SR-NYSEAmex-2011-102.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background \5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ The information contained herein is a summary of the NMM
Pilot. See supra note [4] [sic] for a fuller description.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In October 2008, the NYSE implemented significant changes to its
market rules, execution technology and the rights and obligations of
its market participants all of which were designed to improve execution
quality on the Exchange. These changes are all elements of the
Exchange's enhanced market model. Certain of the enhanced market model
changes were implemented through a pilot program.
    As part of the NMM Pilot, NYSE eliminated the function of
specialists on the Exchange creating a new category of market
participant, the Designated Market Maker or DMM.\6\ The DMMs, like
specialists, have affirmative obligations to make an orderly market,
including continuous quoting requirements and obligations to re-enter
the market when reaching across to execute against trading interest.
Unlike specialists, DMMs have a minimum quoting requirement \7\ in
their assigned securities and no longer have a negative obligation.
DMMs are also no longer agents for public customer orders.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See NYSE Rule 103.
    \7\ See NYSE Rule 104.
    \8\ See NYSE Rule 60; see also NYSE Rules 104 and 1000.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, the Exchange implemented a system change that allowed
DMMs to create a schedule of additional non-displayed liquidity at
various price points where the DMM is willing to interact with interest
and provide price improvement to orders in the Exchange's system. This
schedule is known as the DMM Capital Commitment Schedule (``CCS'').\9\
CCS provides the Display Book[reg] \10\ with the amount of
shares that the DMM is willing to trade at price points outside, at and
inside the Exchange Best Bid or Best Offer (``BBO''). CCS interest is
separate and distinct from other DMM interest in that it serves as the
interest of last resort.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See NYSE Rule 1000.
    \10\ The Display Book system is an order management and
execution facility. The Display Book system receives and displays
orders to the DMMs, contains the order information, and provides a
mechanism to execute and report transactions and publish the results
to the Consolidated Tape. The Display Book system is connected to a
number of other Exchange systems for the purposes of comparison,
surveillance, and reporting information to customers and other
market data and national market systems.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The NMM Pilot further modified the logic for allocating executed
shares among market participants having trading interest at a price
point upon execution of incoming orders. The modified logic rewards
displayed orders that establish the Exchange's BBO. During the
operation of the NMM Pilot orders, or portions thereof, that establish
priority \11\ retain that priority until the portion of the order that
established priority is exhausted. Where no one order has established
priority, shares are distributed among all market participants on
parity.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See NYSE Rule 72(a)(ii).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The NMM Pilot was originally scheduled to end operation on October
1, 2009, or such earlier time as the Commission may determine to make
the rules permanent. The Exchange filed to extend the operation of the
Pilot on several occasions in order to prepare a rule filing seeking
permission to make the above described changes permanent.\12\ The
Exchange is currently still preparing such formal submission but does
not expect that filing to be completed and approved by the Commission
before January 31, 2012.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See supra note 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Proposal To Extend the Operation of the NMM Pilot

    The NYSE established the NMM Pilot to provide incentives for
quoting, to enhance competition among the existing group of liquidity
providers and to add a new competitive market participant. The Exchange
believes that the NMM Pilot allows the Exchange to provide its market
participants with a trading venue that utilizes an enhanced market
structure to encourage the addition of liquidity, facilitate the
trading of larger orders more efficiently and operates to reward
aggressive liquidity providers. As such, the Exchange believes that the
rules governing the NMM Pilot should be made permanent. Through this
filing the Exchange seeks to extend the current operation of the NMM
Pilot until July 31, 2012, in order to allow the Exchange time to
formally submit a filing to the Commission to convert the pilot rules
to permanent rules.
2. Statutory Basis
    The basis under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'')
for this proposed rule change is the requirement under Section 6(b)(5)
that an exchange have rules that are designed to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system and,
in

general, to protect investors and the public interest. The Exchange
believes that this filing is consistent with these principles because
the NMM Pilot provides its market participants with a trading venue
that utilizes an enhanced market structure to encourage the addition of
liquidity, facilitate the trading of larger orders more efficiently,
and operates to reward aggressive liquidity providers. Moreover,
requesting an extension of the NMM Pilot will permit adequate time for:
(i) The Exchange to prepare and submit a filing to make the rules
governing the NMM Pilot permanent; (ii) public notice and comment; and
(iii) completion of the 19b-4 approval process.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate

                                          Dicamba Case (029801, 029802, 029803, 029806, 128931, 129043, and 128944)                       Screening Level Usage Analysis (SLUA)                              Date: June 22, 2015                                          What is a Screening Level Usage Analysis (SLUA)?  Available estimates of pesticide usage data for a particular active ingredient that is used on agricultural crops in the United States.  Pesticide usage data obtained from various sources.  The data are then merged, averaged, and rounded so that the presented information is not proprietary, business confidential, or trade secret.  What does it contain?  Pesticide usage data for a single active ingredient only.  Agricultural use sites (crops) that the pesticide is reported to be used on.   Available pesticide usage information from U.S. states that produce 80% or more of a crop, in most cases, or less than 80%, in rare cases, depending on the scope of the survey and available resources.  Annual percent of crop treated (average & maximum) for each agricultural crop.  Average annual pounds of the pesticide applied for each agricultural crop (i.e., for the states surveyed, not for the entire United States). What assumptions can I make about the reported data?  Average pounds of active ingredient applied - Values are calculated by merging pesticide usage data sources together; averaging across all observations, then rounding.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 500, then that value is labeled <500.  Estimated values between 500 & <1,000,000 are rounded to 1 significant digit.  Estimated values of 1,000,000 or greater are rounded to 2 significant digits.)  Average percent of crop treated - Values are calculated by merging data sources together; averaging by year, averaging across all years, & rounding to the nearest multiple of 5.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 2.5, then the value is labeled <2.5.  If the estimated value is less than 1, then the value is labeled <1.  Maximum percent of crop treated - Value is the single maximum value reported across all data sources, across all years, & rounded up to the nearest multiple of 5.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 2.5, then the value is labeled <2.5. What are the data sources used?  USDA-NASS (United States Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service)  -  pesticide usage data from 2004 to 2013.  Private pesticide market research  -  pesticide usage data from 2004 to 2013.  California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) Pesticide Use Reporting (PUR) data for 2004 to 2012. What are the limitations to the data?  Additional registered uses may exist but are not included because the available surveys do not report usage (e.g., small acreage crops).  Lack of reported usage data for the pesticide on a crop does not imply zero usage.  Usage data on a particular site may be noted in data sources, but not quantified.  In these instances, the site would not be reported in the SLUA.  Non-agricultural use sites (e.g., turf, post-harvest, mosquito control, etc.) are not reported in the SLUA.  A separate request must be made to receive these estimates.  Some sites show some use, even though they are not on the label.  This usage could be due to various factors, including, but not limited to Section 18 requests, existing stocks of the chemical, data collection errors, and experimental use permits (EUPs).

                                                            Date: June 22, 2015  Screening Level Estimates of Agricultural Uses of Dicamba Case (029801, 029802, 029803, 029806, 128931, 129043, and 128944)*                              Sorted Alphabetically                           Reporting Years: 2004-2013

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    I. Overview: Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (PCNA), on behalf of
Dr. Ing. h.c.F. Porsche AG (PAG), has determined that certain model
year (MY) 2017 Porsche 911 Turbo and Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet motor
vehicles do not fully comply with paragraph S5.2.1 of FMVSS No. 101,
Controls and Displays, and paragraph S5.5.5 of FMVSS No. 135, Light
Vehicle Brake Systems. PCNA filed a noncompliance report dated March
16, 2017, pursuant to 49 CFR part 573, Defect and Noncompliance
Responsibility and Reports. PCNA also petitioned NHTSA on March 17,
2017, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and 30120(h) and 49 CFR part 556,
for an exemption from the notification and remedy requirements of 49
U.S.C. Chapter 301 on the basis that this noncompliance is
inconsequential as it relates to motor vehicle safety.
    This notice of receipt of PCNA's petition is published under 49
U.S.C. 30118 and 30120 and does not represent any agency decision or
other exercise of judgment concerning the merits of the petition.
    II. Vehicles Involved: Approximately 17 MY 2017 Porsche 911 Turbo
and Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet motor vehicles, manufactured between
May 31, 2016, and January 11, 2017, are potentially involved.
    III. Noncompliance: PCNA explains that the noncompliance is that
the telltales used for Brake Warning, Park Brake Warning and Antilock
Braking System (ABS) failure warnings are displayed using International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) symbols instead of the words
``Brake'' and ``ABS'' as required by paragraph S5.2.1 of FMVSS No. 101
and paragraph S5.5.5 of FMVSS No. 135.
    IV. Rule Text: Paragraph S5.2.1 of FMVSS No. 101 requires in
pertinent part:

    S5.2.1 Except for the Low Tire Pressure Telltale, each control,
telltale and indicator that is listed in column 1 of Table 1 or
Table 2 must be identified by the symbol specified for it in column
2 or the word or abbreviation specified for it in column 3 of Table
1 or Table 2. If a symbol is used, each symbol provided pursuant to
this paragraph must be substantially similar in form to the symbol
as it appears in Table 1 or Table 2. If a symbol is used, each
symbol provided pursuant to this paragraph must have the
proportional dimensional characteristics of the symbol as it appears
in Table 1 or Table 2 . . .

    Paragraphs S5.5.5 of FMVSS No. 135 requires in pertinent part:

    S5.5.5. Labeling. (a) Each visual indicator shall display a word
or words in accordance with the requirements of Standard No. 101 (49
CFR 571.101) and this section, which shall be legible to the driver
under all daytime and nighttime conditions when activated. Unless
otherwise specified, the words shall have letters not less than 3.2
mm (1/8 inch) high and the letters and

background shall be of contrasting colors, one of which is red.
Words or symbols in addition to those required by Standard No. 101
and this section may be provided for purposes of clarity.
    (b) Vehicles manufactured with a split service brake system may
use a common brake warning indicator to indicate two or more of the
functions described in S5.5.1(a) through S5.5.1(g). If a common
indicator is used, it shall display the word ``Brake .''. . .
    (d) If separate indicators are used for one or more of the
conditions described in S5.5.1(a) through S5.5.1(g), the indicators
shall display the following wording: . . .
    (3) If a separate indicator is provided for the condition
specified in S5.5.1(b), the letters and background shall be of
contrasting colors, one of which is yellow. The indicator shall be
labeled with the words ``Antilock'' or ``Anti-lock'' or ``ABS''; or
``Brake Proportioning,'' in accordance with Table 2 of Standard No.
101 . . .

    V. Summary of PCNA's Petition: PCNA described the subject
noncompliance and stated its belief that the noncompliance is
inconsequential as it relates to motor vehicle safety.
    In support of its petition, PCNA submitted the following reasoning:

    (a) The Owner's Manual for the subject vehicles is written for
multiple markets and depicts both the ``BRAKE'' and ISO symbols
telltales for brake warning, as well as the ``ABS'' and ISO symbol
telltales for ABS lamp.
    (b) The ISO symbol for ABS lamp also contains the word ``ABS'',
which is additionally embedded in a circle with two vertical lines.
In case of an illumination of the ISO symbol, the malfunction
display, located in the instrument cluster, will display an
additional warning message that states ``ABS/PSM failure. Drive with
caution'' and an initial warning chime will sound. Porsche believes
that in the event the ISO ABS telltale is displayed, the driver
would recognize a possible ABS malfunction.
    (c) In the event the brake fluid level in the master cylinder
reservoir is less than the recommended safe level, the ISO symbol
will illuminate, and the multifunction display will display a
warning message that states ``Brake fluid level. Park vehicle
safely'' and an initial warning chime will sound. The message will
stay continuously displayed, provided there are no other serious
message(s), which would result in the messages being displayed in an
alternating manner. If the brake fluid is still low on subsequent
ignition key cycles the message will be redisplayed in the message
center.
    (d) The parking brake in the subject vehicles are set by pushing
a button labelled ``P'', which is located on the left hand side of
the steering wheel. Once the parking brake is set, a red light
indicator located in the button will illuminate. Thus the
application of the parking brake is in full view of the operator.
When the parking brake is engaged it illuminates the ISO symbol and
should the operator proceed with the parking brake engaged, the
parking brake releases automatically if the following prerequisites
are fulfilled:
    1. Engine is running;
    2. Driver's door is closed;
    3. Driver's seat belt is fastened.
    If one of these prerequisites is not fulfilled, the electric
parking brake is not automatically released when the operator
attempts to drive off. A message appears on the multifunction
display, and the red light indicator in the button as well as the
ISO symbol for the brake will flash.
    (e) In all cases the ISO symbols for the brake and ABS telltale
illuminate and remain illuminated in accordance with the
requirements of FMVSS No. 135.
    (f) Porsche is unaware of any field or owner complaints
regarding the issue of non-compliant telltales.

    PCNA concluded by expressing the belief that the subject
noncompliance is inconsequential as it relates to motor vehicle safety,
and that its petition to be exempted from providing notification of the
noncompliance, as required by 49 U.S.C. 30118, and a remedy for the
noncompliance, as required by 49 U.S.C. 30120, should be granted.
    NHTSA notes that the statutory provisions (49 U.S.C. 30118(d) and
30120(h)) that permit manufacturers to file petitions for a
determination of inconsequentiality allow NHTSA to exempt manufacturers
only from the duties found in sections 30118 and 30120, respectively,
to notify owners, purchasers, and dealers of a defect or noncompliance
and to remedy the defect or noncompliance. Therefore, any decision on
this petition only applies to the subject vehicles that PCNA no longer
controlled at the time it determined that the noncompliance existed.
However, any decision on this petition does not relieve vehicle
distributors and dealers of the prohibitions on the sale, offer for
sale, or introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate
commerce of the noncompliant vehicles under their control after PCNA
notified them that the subject noncompliance existed.

    Authority: (49 U.S.C. 30118, 30120: delegations of authority at
49 CFR 1.95 and 501.8)

rulemaking, we will hold one at a time and place announced by a later
notice in the Federal Register.

B. Regulatory History and Information

    The current regulations under 33 CFR 100 address safety for
reoccurring marine events. This marine event does not appear in the
current regulations; however, as it is a regulation to provide
effective control over regattas and marine parades on the navigable
waters of the United States so as to ensure safety of life in a regatta
or marine parade, this marine event needs to be temporarily added.

C. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for the rule is the Coast Guard's authority to
establish special local regulations: 33 U.S.C. 1233. The purpose of the
rule is to ensure safety of life on navigable waters of the United
States during the Christmas Boat Parade.

D. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    On December 14, 2013, Club Nautico de San Juan is sponsoring the
Christmas Boat Parade. The event will be held on the waters of San Juan
Harbor in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Approximately 35 boats are anticipated
to participate in the event, and it is not anticipated that there will
be any spectator vessels present.
    The proposed rule would establish a special local regulation that
will encompass certain waters of San Juan Harbor in San Juan, Puerto
Rico. The special local regulation will be enforced from 5 p.m. until 8
p.m. on December 14, 2013. The special local regulation will establish
a Parade Route, where all persons and vessels, except those persons and
vessels participating in the parade will be prohibited from entering,
transiting through, anchoring in, or remaining within the area unless
authorized by the Captain of the Port San Juan or a designated
representative.
    Persons and vessels may request authorization to enter, transit
through, anchor in, or remain within the Parade Route by contacting the
Captain of the Port San Juan by telephone at<PHONE_NUMBER>, or through
a designated representative via VHF radio on channel 16. If
authorization to enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within
the Parade Route is granted by the Captain of the Port San Juan or a
designated representative, all persons and vessels receiving such
authorization must comply with the instructions of the Captain of the
Port San Juan or a designated representative. The Coast Guard will
provide notice of the special local regulation by Local Notice to
Mariners, Broadcast Notice to Mariners, and on-scene designated
representatives.

E. 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 or executive orders.

1. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This proposed rule is not a significant regulatory action under
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review,
as supplemented by Executive Order 13563, Improving Regulation and
Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential
costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of Executive Order 12866 or
under section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under those Orders.
    The economic impact of this rule is not significant for the
following reasons: (1) The special local regulation will be enforced
for only three hours; (2) although non-participant persons and vessels
will not be able to enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within
the parade route without authorization from the Captain of the Port San
Juan or a designated representative, they may operate in the
surrounding area during the enforcement period; (3) persons and vessels
may still enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within the
Parade Route during the enforcement period if authorized by the Captain
of the Port San Juan or a designated representative; and (4) the Coast
Guard will provide advance notification of the special local regulation
to the local maritime community by Local Notice to Mariners and
Broadcast Notice to Mariners.

2. Impact on Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have
considered the impact of this proposed rule on small entities. The
Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this proposed rule
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of
small entities. This rule may affect the following entities, some of
which may be small entities: the owners or operators of vessels
intending to enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within that
portion of San Juan Harbor encompassed within the special local
regulation from 5 p.m. until 8 p.m. on December 14, 2013. For the
reasons discussed in the Regulatory Planning and Review section above,
this rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities.
    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.

3. 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 proposed 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, above. 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.

4. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule will not call for a new collection of
information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-
3520.).

5. Federalism

    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
determined that this rule does not have implications for federalism.

6. 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.

7. 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 effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.

8. Taking of Private Property

    This proposed rule would not cause a taking of private property or
otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630,
Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected
Property Rights.

9. Civil Justice Reform

    This proposed 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.

10. Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks

    We have analyzed this proposed 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.

11. Indian Tribal Governments

    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.

12. Energy Effects

    This proposed rule is not a ``significant energy action'' under
Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use.

13. Technical Standards

    This proposed rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we
did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

14. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed 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
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 the
creation of a special local regulation issued in conjunction with a
regatta or marine parade to ensure the safety of race participants,
participant vessels, spectators, and the general public during the
event. This rule is categorically excluded from further review under
paragraph 34(h) of Figure 2-1 of the Commandant Instruction. A
preliminary environmental analysis checklist supporting this
determination and a Categorical Exclusion Determination are available
in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES. We seek any comments or
information that may lead to the discovery of a significant
environmental impact from this proposed rule.
