40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R05-OAR-2009-0513; FRL-9136-7]

Approval and Promulgation of Air Quality Implementation Plans;
Indiana; Volatile Organic Compound Automobile Refinishing Rules for
Indiana

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: EPA is approving into the Indiana State Implementation Plan
(SIP) amendments to Indiana's automobile refinishing rule. These rule
revisions extend the applicability of Indiana's approved volatile
organic compound (VOC) automobile refinishing rules to all persons in
Indiana who sell or manufacture automobile refinishing coatings or who
refinish motor vehicles. The rules are approvable because they are
consistent with the Clean Air Act (Act) and EPA regulations, and should
result in additional VOC emission reductions throughout Indiana. EPA
proposed these rules for approval on January 14, 2010, and received one
favorable comment.

DATES: This final rule is effective on June 4, 2010.

ADDRESSES: EPA has established a docket for this action under Docket ID
Nos. EPA-R05-OAR-2009-0513. All documents in the docket are listed on
the http://www.regulations.gov Web site. Although listed in the index,
some information is not publicly available, i.e., Confidential Business
Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is restricted
by statute. Certain other material, such as copyrighted material, is
not placed on the Internet and will be publicly available only in hard
copy form. Publicly available docket materials are available either
electronically through http://www.regulations.gov or in hard copy at
the Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, Air and Radiation
Division, 77 West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604. This
facility is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document whenever ``we,''
``us,'' or ``our'' is used, we mean EPA. This supplementary information
section is arranged as follows:

I. What public comments were received on the proposed approval and
what is EPA's response?
II. What action is EPA taking today and what is the purpose of this
action?
III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews.

I. What public comments were received on the proposed approval and what
is EPA's response?

    One comment in support of Indiana's rule revision was received.

II. What action is EPA taking today and what is the purpose of this
action?

    EPA is approving rule revisions that broaden the coverage of
Indiana's VOC automobile refinishing SIP rules to include all persons
in Indiana who sell or manufacture automobile refinishing coatings or
who refinish motor vehicles. These rules had previously applied only in
Clark, Floyd, Lake, Porter, and Vanderburgh Counties. Given the revised
rule's focus on VOC coating limitations and work practice standards,
Indiana has also deleted references to control technology requirements.
    In EPA's January 14, 2010, proposal (75 FR 2090), we present a
detailed legal and technical analysis of the State's submission. The
reader is referred to that notice for additional background on the
submission and the bases for EPA's approval.

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under the Act, the Administrator is required to approve a SIP
submission that complies with the provisions of the Act and applicable
Federal regulations. 42 U.S.C. 7410(k); 40 CFR 52.02(a). Thus, in
reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state choices,
provided that they meet the criteria of the Act. Accordingly, this
action merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and
does not impose additional requirements beyond those imposed by state
law. For that reason, this action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);
     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Act; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, this rule does not have tribal implications as
specified by Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000),
because the SIP is not approved to apply in Indian country located in
the state, and EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct
costs on tribal governments or preempt tribal law.
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this action and
other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Act, petitions for judicial review
of this action must be filed in the United States Court of Appeals for
the appropriate circuit by July 6, 2010. Filing a petition for
reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule does not affect
the finality of this action for the purposes of judicial review nor
does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial review may
be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such rule or
action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings to
enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

33 CFR Part 165

[Docket Number USCG-2016-0241]
RIN 1625-AA00

Safety Zone, Swim Around Charleston; Charleston, SC

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to establish a temporary moving
safety zone during the Swim Around Charleston, a swimming race
occurring on the Wando River, the Cooper River, Charleston Harbor, and
the Ashley River, in Charleston, South Carolina scheduled for September
25, 2016. The temporary moving safety zone is necessary to protect
swimmers, participant vessels, spectators, and the general public
during the event. Persons and vessels would be prohibited from entering
the safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Charleston
or a designated representative.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast
Guard on or before July 7, 2016.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2016-0241 using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. See the ``Public Participation and Request for
Comments'' portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further
instructions on submitting comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this
proposed rulemaking, call or email Lieutenant John Downing, Sector
Charleston Office of Waterways Management, Coast Guard; telephone (843)

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

    On March 17, 2016, Kathleen Wilson notified the Coast Guard that
she will be sponsoring the Swim Around Charleston from 9 a.m. to 3:30
p.m. on September 25, 2016. The legal basis for the proposed rule is
the Coast Guard's Authority to establish a safety zone: 33 U.S.C. 1231.
The purpose of the proposed rule is to ensure safety of life on the
navigable water of the United States during Swim Around Charleston.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The Coast Guard proposes to establish a temporary safety zone on
the waters of the Wando River, Cooper River, Charleston Harbor, and
Ashley River, in

Charleston, South Carolina during Swim Around Charleston on September
25, 2016. Approximately 120 swimmers are anticipated to participate in
the race. Persons and vessels desiring to enter, transit through,
anchor in, or remain within the regulated area may contact the Captain
of the Port Charleston by telephone at<PHONE_NUMBER>, or a designated
representative via VHF radio on channel 16, to request authorization.
If authorization to enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within
the regulated area is granted, all persons and vessels receiving such
authorization must comply with the instructions of the Captain of the
Port Charleston or a designated representative. The Coast Guard will
provide notice of the safety zone by Local Notice to Mariners,
Broadcast Notice to Mariners, and on-scene designated representatives.

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. Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of
quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing
rules, and of promoting flexibility. 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.
    The economic impact of this proposed rule is not significant for
the following reasons: (1) The safety zone would be enforced for only
seven hours; (2) the safety zone would move with the participant
vessels so that once the swimmers clear a portion of the waterway, the
safety zone would no longer be enforced in that portion of the
waterway; (3) although persons and vessels would not be able to enter
or transit through the safety zone without authorization from the
Captain of the Port Charleston or a designated representative, they
would be able to operate in the surrounding area during the enforcement
period; (4) persons and vessels would still be able to enter or transit
through the safety zone if authorized by the Captain of the Port
Charleston or a designated representative; and (5) the Coast Guard
would provide advance notification of the safety zone to the local
maritime community by Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to
Mariners.

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 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 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 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 contact 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 effects of this rule
elsewhere in this preamble.

F. 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 (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 less than 7 hours that would prohibit entry within the
safety zone. Normally such actions are categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2-1 of Commandant
Instruction M16475.lD. A preliminary environmental analysis checklist
and 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.

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.

V. Public Participation and Request for Comments

    We view public participation as essential to effective rulemaking,
and will consider all comments and material received during the comment
period. Your comment can help shape the outcome of this rulemaking. If
you submit a comment, please include the docket number for this
rulemaking, indicate the specific section of this document to which
each comment applies, and provide a reason for each suggestion or
