SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this action apply to me?

    This action is directed to the public in general. As such, the
Agency has not attempted to describe the specific entities that this
action may apply to. Although others may be affected, this action
applies directly to the submitters of the actions addressed in this
document.

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 email. 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 preparing and submitting
your comments, see the commenting tips at http://www.epa.gov/dockets/comments.html.

II. What action is the agency taking?

    This document provides receipt and status reports, which cover the
period from June 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016, and consists of the PMNs and
TMEs both pending and/or expired, and the NOCs to manufacture a new
chemical that the Agency has received under TSCA section 5 during this
time period.

III. What is the agency's authority for taking this action?

    Under TSCA, 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq., EPA classifies a chemical
substance as either an ``existing'' chemical or a ``new'' chemical. Any
chemical substance that is not on EPA's TSCA Inventory is classified as
a ``new chemical,'' while those that are on the TSCA Inventory are
classified as an ``existing chemical.'' For more information about the
TSCA Inventory go to: http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/newchems/pubs/inventory.htm.
    Anyone who plans to manufacture or import a new chemical substance
for a non-exempt commercial purpose is required by TSCA section 5 to
provide EPA with a PMN, before initiating the activity. Section 5(h)(1)
of TSCA authorizes EPA to allow persons, upon application, to
manufacture (includes import) or process a new chemical substance, or a
chemical substance subject to a significant new use rule (SNUR) issued
under TSCA section 5(a), for ``test marketing'' purposes, which is
referred to as a test marketing exemption, or TME. For more information
about the requirements applicable to a new chemical go to: http://www.epa.gov/oppt/newchems.
    Under TSCA sections 5(d)(2) and 5(d)(3), EPA is required to publish
in the Federal Register a notice of receipt of a PMN or an application
for a TME and to publish in the Federal Register periodic reports on
the status of new chemicals under review and the receipt of NOCs to
manufacture those chemicals.

IV. Receipt and Status Reports

    As used in each of the tables in this unit, (S) indicates that the
information in the table is the specific information provided by the
submitter, and (G) indicates that the information in the table is
generic information because the specific information provided by the
submitter was claimed as CBI.
    For the 60 PMNs received by EPA during this period, Table 1
provides the following information (to the extent that such information
is not claimed as CBI): The EPA case number assigned to the PMN; The
date the PMN was received by EPA; the projected end date for EPA's
review of the PMN; the submitting manufacturer/importer; the potential
uses identified by the manufacturer/importer in the PMN; and the
chemical identity.

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 for good cause finds 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 notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because the final details for this event were
not provided to the Coast Guard until June 25, 2012. As such, it is
impracticable to provide a full comment period due to lack of time.
Delaying the effective date for comment would be contrary to the public
interest, since immediate action is needed to ensure the safety of the
event participants, patrol vessels, spectator craft and other vessels
transiting the event area. The Coast Guard will provide advance
notifications to users of the effected waterways of the safety zone via
marine information broadcasts, local notice to mariners, commercial
radio stations and area newspapers.
    Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds, for the reasons
noted above, that good cause exists for making this rule effective less
than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for this rule is 33 U.S.C.1231; 46 U.S.C. Chapter
701, 3306, 3703; 50 U.S.C. 191, 195; 33 CFR 1.05-1, 6.04-1, 6.04-6,
160.5; Public Law 107-295, 116 Stat. 2064; Department of Homeland
Security Delegation No. 0170.1. which collectively authorize the Coast
Guard to define regulatory safety zones.
    On August 28, 2012, NC NENA/APCO Conference will sponsor a land-
based fireworks display on the western shore of the Cape Fear River at
Battleship Park. The fireworks debris fallout area will extend over the
navigable waters of Cape Fear River. Due to the need to protect
mariners and spectators from the hazards associated with the fireworks
display, including accidental discharge of fireworks, dangerous
projectiles, and falling hot embers or other debris, vessel traffic
will be temporarily restricted from transiting within fireworks launch
and fallout area.

C. Discussion of the Final Rule

    The Coast Guard is establishing a safety zone on the navigable
waters of Cape Fear River within an area bound by a line drawn from the
following points: Latitude 34[deg]13'54'' N, longitude 077[deg]57'06''
W; thence northeast to latitude 34[deg]13'57'' N, longitude
077[deg]57'05'' W; thence north to latitude 34[deg]14'11'' N, longitude
077[deg]57'07'' W; thence northwest to latitude 34[deg]14'22'' N,
longitude 077[deg]57'19'' W; thence west to latitude 34[deg]14'22'' N,
longitude 077[deg]57'06'' W; thence southeast to latitude
34[deg]14'07'' N, longitude 077[deg]57'00'' W; thence south to latitude
34[deg]13'54'' N, longitude 077[deg]56'58'' W; thence to the point of
origin, located

approximately 500 yards north of Cape Fear Memorial Bridge. This safety
zone will be established and enforced in the vicinity of Wilmington, NC
from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. on August 28, 2012. In the interest of public
safety, general navigation within the safety zone will be restricted
during the specified date and times. Except for participants and
vessels authorized by the Coast Guard Captain of the Port or his
representative, no person or vessel may enter or remain in the
regulated area.

D. Regulatory Analyses

    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.

1. Regulatory Planning and Review

    This 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. Although this regulation
restricts access to a small segment of the Cape Fear River, the effect
of this rule will not be significant because: (i) The safety zone will
be in effect for a limited duration; (ii) the zone is of limited size;
and (iii) the Coast Guard will make notifications via maritime
advisories so mariners can adjust their plans accordingly.

2. 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 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
the specified portion of Cape Fear River from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. on
August 28, 2012. This rule will not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities for the following reasons:
(1) This rule will be enforced for only three hours on August 28, 2012;
(2) Vessel traffic will be able to navigate safely around the safety
zone without significant impact to their transit plans; and (3) Before
the effective period begins, we will issue maritime advisories.

3. Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Public Law 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,
above.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR
(1-888-734-3247). 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.

4. Collection of Information

    This 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 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 rule will not result in
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere
in this preamble.

8. Taking of Private Property

    This rule will 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 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

    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 does not create an
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may
disproportionately affect children.

11. 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.

12. Energy Effects

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

14. 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 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
establishing a safety zone for a fireworks display launch site and
fallout area and is expected to have no impact on the water or
environment. This zone is designed to protect mariners and spectators
from the hazards associated with aerial fireworks displays. This rule
is categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 34 (g) of
Figure 2-1 of the Commandant Instruction. An 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 rule.
