SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-54036; File No. SR-Phlx-2005-61]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Philadelphia Stock Exchange, Inc.;
Order Granting Approval of Proposed Rule Change, and Amendment Nos. 1
and 2 Thereto, Relating to the Deletion of Certain Exchange Rules

June 23, 2006.

I. Introduction

    On October 14, 2005, the Philadelphia Stock Exchange, Inc.
(``Phlx'' or ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4
thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to eliminate certain rules that
the Exchange believes are obsolete due to changes in the law or the
business methods employed by the Exchange. On March 10 and May 1, 2006,
respectively, the Exchange submitted Amendment Nos. 1 \3\ and 2 \4\ to
the proposed rule change. The proposed rule change, as amended, was
published for comment in the Federal Register on May 18, 2006.\5\ No
comments were received regarding the proposal, as amended. This order
approves the proposed rule change, as amended.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ Amendment No. 1, which replaced the original filing in its
entirety, made clarifying changes to the proposed rule change and
sought to retain Phlx Rules 229 Supplementary Material .07(c)(ii)
and 236.
    \4\ Amendment No. 2, which replaced the original filing and
Amendment No. 1 in their entirety, made general clarifying changes
to the proposed rule change and sought to retain Phlx rule 219, as
well as Phlx rules 229 Supplementary Material .07(c)(ii) and 236.
Phlx states that it plans to propose to delete Phlx Rules 219, 229
Supplementary Material .07(c)ii), and 236 in a future proposed rule
change regarding a change to Phlx systems.
    \5\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 53795 (May 12,
2006), 71 FR 28893 (May 18, 2006) (``Notice'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Change

    Phlx is proposing to remove from its rule book Phlx Rules 129, 241-
248, and 923.

Phlx Rule 129: Withdrawal of Orders

    Phlx rule 129 prohibits the withdrawal of an order from the
Exchange, at the request of another member, for the purpose of the
purchase or sale of the securities outside of the Exchange.

Phlx Rules 241-248: Rules for Special Offerings

    Phlx Rules 241-248 concern special offerings of securities on the
Exchange. In 1942, the Commission amended Rule 10b-2 under the Act to
permit an exemption for special offerings under a plan filed with the
Commission by an exchange.\6\ Phlx's Plan, contained in Phlx rules 241-
248, permits special offerings, at a fixed price and for a fixed period
of time, on the Exchange where the quantity of stock involved cannot be
absorbed in the regular auction market within a reasonable time and at
a reasonable price. Phlx rules 241-248 permit a person making a special
offering to pay a special commission to a broker for a purchasing
customer.
    Generally, Phlx Rules 241-248 specify a minimum share size of 1,000
shares, with a value of $25,000. According to the Exchange, by today's
standards, 1,000 shares of stock with a value of $25,000 is not a
quantity of stock that cannot readily be absorbed in the regular
auction market. Phlx Rules 241-248 predate Phlx crossing Rule 126,
which has special cross provisions for Trust Shares of 25,000 shares or
greater and all securities of 5,000 shares or greater, and PACE, which
is described in Phlx Rule 229 and which sets minimum automatic
execution sizes for securities on the system of 599 shares, noting that
specialists may set higher levels.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Phlx filed its plan in 1943. See Securities Exchange Act
Release No. 3487 (September 23, 1943).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In proposing the rescission of Rule 10b-2, the Commission indicated
that it believed that the significant changes that have taken place in
the securities markets since Rule 10b-2's adoption, and the coverage of
other anti-fraud and anti-manipulation provisions of the Federal
securities laws, made it appropriate to rescind Rule 10b-2.\7\ The
Exchange now proposes to delete Phlx Rules 241-248, the plan adopted in
response to Rule 10b-2, because it believes that these rules are
obsolete as the Commission rescinded Rule 10b-2 and the Exchange has
not utilized Phlx Rules 241-248 in the past twenty years.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 32100 (April 2,
1993), 58 FR 18145 (April 8, 1993).
    \8\ See also Securities Exchange Act Release No. 32822 (August
31, 1993), 58 FR 47484 (September 9, 1993) (SR-NYSE-93-20)
(rescinding New York Stock Exchange (``NYSE'') Rule 391, which is
similar to Phlx Rules 241-248).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Phlx Rule 923: Member Officers

    Phlx Rule 923 requires members associated with member corporations
to be officers and voting stockholders of those member corporations,
noting that the Exchange may waive the voting stock requirement of the
rule.

III. Discussion

    After careful consideration, the Commission finds that the proposed
rule change, as amended, is consistent with the requirements of the Act
and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to a national
securities exchange. Specifically, the Commission finds that the
proposal is consistent with section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\9\ which
requires, in part, that the rules of an exchange be 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.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
    \10\ In approving this proposal, the Commission has considered
the proposed rule's impact of efficiency, competition, and capital
formation. 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As noted above, the Exchange proposes to clarify the Exchange's
rules by eliminating provisions that no longer are necessary and are
obsolete. The Commission believes these changes are consistent with the
Act. With respect to the deletion of Phlx Rule 129, the Exchange notes
that currently members, in exercising their duty to obtain best
execution for orders entrusted to them, may remove orders from the
Exchange and seek execution in other venues. With respect to the
proposed deletion of Phlx Rules 241-248, the Commission notes that
these rules are substantially similar to former NYSE Rule 391, which
was rescinded in 1993.\11\ In approving the NYSE's deletion of this
rule, the Commission noted that it was appropriate for the Exchange
rescind NYSE Rule 391 in light of the rescission of Rule 10b-2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 32822, supra note
8.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Moreover, the Commission believes that it is consistent with the
Act for Phlx to delete Phlx Rule 923, to provide member corporations
additional flexibility to choose whom in their company to employ as
members of the Exchange. According to the Exchange, this rule was
adopted as least fifty years ago, when most member corporations were
small regional companies. The purpose of this rule at that time,
according to the Exchange, may have been to provide an additional means
of obtaining security for the debts of the member corporation by
requiring that the members who were trading the securities also be
officers and/or owners of the corporation. Today, Phlx has other rule-
based means to require adequate financial security for the debts

of member corporations and for ensuring that member corporations are
generally financially solvent.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \12\ See e.g., Phlx Rule 909 (requiring member organizations to
provide and maintain security for any claims owed to the Exchange
and other members and member organizations); and Phlx Rule 924
(making the member organization liable for the fees, fines, dues,
penalties and other amounts imposed by the Exchange on its members;
this provision applies regardless of the officer or ownership status
of the member). According to Phlx, member corporations are a subset
of member organizations. Therefore, Phlx Rules 909 and 924 apply to
member corporations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IV. Conclusion

    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to section 19(b)(2) of the
Act,\13\ that the proposed rule change (SR-Phlx-2005-61), as amended,
is approved.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation,
pursuant to delegated authority.\14\

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    We have received 5 reports of uncontained engine failures and IFSDs
due to failed connecting rods on various models of Lycoming Engines
reciprocating engines listed in Table 1 of Lycoming Engines Mandatory
Service Bulletin (MSB) No. 632B, dated August 4, 2017, that were
overhauled or repaired using any replacement part listed in Table 2 of
Lycoming Engines MSB No. 632B, dated August 4, 2017,

which was shipped from Lycoming Engines during the dates listed in
Table 2 of Lycoming Engines MSB No. 632B, dated August 4, 2017. This AD
requires accomplishing the instructions in Lycoming Engines MSB No.
632B, dated August 4, 2017, except for the instruction to complete the
online survey as specified in the MSB. This condition, if not
corrected, could result in uncontained engine failure, total engine
power loss, IFSD, and possible loss of the airplane. We are issuing
this AD to prevent connecting rod failure.

Related Service Information Under 1 CFR Part 51

    Lycoming Engines Mandatory Service Bulletin (MSB) No. 632B, dated
August 4, 2017. The MSB describes procedures for inspecting connecting
rods and replacing connecting rod small end bushings. This service
information is reasonably available because the interested parties have
access to it through their normal course of business or by the means
identified in the ADDRESSES section.

FAA's Determination

    We are issuing this AD because we evaluated all the relevant
information and determined the unsafe condition described previously is
likely to exist or develop in other products of the same type design.

AD Requirements

    This AD requires accomplishing the actions specified in the service
information described previously, except as discussed under
``Differences Between the AD and the Service Information''.

Differences Between This AD and the Service Information

    Lycoming Engines MSB No. 632B, dated August 4, 2017 requires you to
complete an online survey at www.lycoming.com/SB632, review your
inventory of any part listed in Table 2 of the MSB, and sending certain
parts to Lycoming Engines. This AD does not include those requirements.

FAA's Justification and Determination of the Effective Date

    An unsafe condition exists that requires the immediate adoption of
this AD. The FAA has found that the risk to the flying public justifies
waiving notice and comment prior to adoption of this rule because
compliance is required within 10 operating hours. Therefore, we find
that notice and opportunity for prior public comment are impracticable
and that good cause exists for making this amendment effective in less
than 30 days.

Comments Invited

    This AD is a final rule that involves requirements affecting flight
safety and was not preceded by notice and an opportunity for public
comment. However, we invite you to send any written data, views, or
arguments about this final rule. Send your comments to an address
listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include the docket number FAA-2017-
0788 and Product Identifier 2017-NE-27-AD at the beginning of your
comments. We specifically invite comments on the overall regulatory,
economic, environmental, and energy aspects of this final rule. We will
consider all comments received by the closing date and may amend this
final rule because of those comments.
    We will post all comments we receive, without change, to http://www.regulations.gov, including any personal information you provide. We
will also post a report summarizing each substantive verbal contact we
receive about this final rule.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 778 engines installed on airplanes
of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                inspection cycle.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We estimate the following costs to do any necessary replacements
that would be required based on the results of the inspection. We have
no way of determining the number of aircraft that might need these
replacements:

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

    According to the manufacturer, some of the costs of this AD may be
covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on affected
individuals. We do not control warranty coverage for affected
individuals. As a result, we have included all costs in our cost
estimate.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. ``Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs''
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: ``General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on

products identified in this rulemaking action.
    This AD is issued in accordance with authority delegated by the
Executive Director, Aircraft Certification Service, as authorized by
FAA Order 8000.51C. In accordance with that order, issuance of ADs is
normally a function of the Compliance and Airworthiness Division, but
during this transition period, the Executive Director has delegated the
authority to issue ADs applicable to engines, propellers, and
associated appliances to the Manager, Engine and Propeller Standards
Branch, Policy and Innovation Division.

Regulatory Findings

    This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order
13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States,
on the relationship between the national government and the States, or

[Docket No. FAA-2009-0113; Directorate Identifier 2008-NE-25-AD]
RIN 2120-AA64

Airworthiness Directives; Hamilton Sundstrand Propellers Model
247F Propellers

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM); reopening of
comment period.

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

SUMMARY: This supplemental NPRM revises an earlier proposed
airworthiness directive (AD) applicable to Hamilton Sundstrand
Propellers model 247F propeller assemblies with certain part number (P/
N) and serial number (S/N) blades. That proposed AD would require
removing affected propeller blades from service. That proposed AD
resulted from reports of blades with corrosion pits in the tulip area
of the blades. This supplemental NPRM revises the proposed AD to remove
certain propeller S/Ns from the applicability requirement, and to add
additional propeller S/Ns to the applicability requirement. This
proposed AD results from the manufacture's latest service information
containing propeller S/Ns that were not specified in the proposed AD.
We are proposing this AD to prevent cracks from developing in the tulip
area of the blade, which could result in separation of the blade and
possible loss of airplane control.

DATES: We must receive any comments on this proposed AD by December 7,
2010.

ADDRESSES: You can get the service information identified in this AD
from Hamilton Sundstrand Propeller Technical Team, One Hamilton Road,
Mail Stop 1-3-AB43, Windsor Locks, CT 06096-1010; fax<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FAA proposed to amend 14 CFR part 39
with a proposed AD. The proposed AD applies to Hamilton Sundstrand
Propellers model 247F propeller assemblies with certain P/N and S/N
blades. We published the proposed AD in the Federal Register on
February 20, 2009 (74 FR 7833). That action proposed to require
removing affected propeller blades from service.

Comments will be available in the AD docket shortly after receipt.

Discussion

    On February 11, 2009, we proposed to amend 14 CFR part 39 with a
proposed AD. The proposed AD applies to

Hamilton Sundstrand Propellers model 247F propeller assemblies with
blades, P/N 817370-1, S/Ns FR2018, FR2083, FR2103, FR2108, FR2109,
FR2111, FR2123, FR2178, FR2183, FR2187, FR2262, FR2276 through FR2279,
FR2303, and FR2389. We published the proposed AD in the Federal
Register on February 20, 2009 (74 FR 7833). That action proposed to
require removing affected propeller blades from service.
    Since we issued the proposed AD, Hamilton Sundstrand informed us
that they incorrectly listed blade S/N FR2398 as S/N FR2389. They also
informed us that the 247F propeller blades, P/N 817370-1, S/Ns FR2449
to FR2958 inclusive, FR20010710 to FR20010722 inclusive, and
FR20010723RT to FR20020127RT inclusive, manufactured since January
1999, might also have damage to the corrosion protection on the blade
tulips. Those blades also require complying with Service Bulletin (SB)
247F-61-54, Revision 1, dated January 12, 2004.

Comments

    We provided the public the opportunity to participate in the
development of this AD. We received no comments on the proposal or on
the determination of the cost to the public.

Changed Applicability of This Proposed AD

    We added blade S/Ns FR2398, FR2449 to FR2958 inclusive, FR20010710
to FR20010722 inclusive, and FR20010723RT to FR20020127RT inclusive to
the applicability of the proposed AD.
    We removed blade S/Ns FR2083, FR2178, FR2303, and FR2389 from the
applicability of the proposed AD. Hamilton Sundstrand informed us that
they have reworked those blades to SB 247F-61-54, Revision 1, dated
January 12, 2004.

Conclusion

    We have carefully reviewed the available data, and determined that
air safety and the public interest require reopening the comment period
for the NPRM with the changes described previously.

FAA's Determination and Requirements of the Supplemental NPRM

    We have evaluated all pertinent information and identified an
unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on other products
of this same type design. We are proposing this AD, which would require
removing certain propeller assemblies before December 31, 2010.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD will affect 10 propellers installed on
airplanes of U.S. registry. We also estimate that it will take about 16
work-hours per propeller to perform the required actions, and that the
average labor rate is $85 per work-hour. Required parts will cost about
$50 per propeller. Based on these figures, we estimate the total cost
of this AD to U.S. operators to be $14,100.

Authority for This Rulemaking

    Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to
issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the
authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs,
describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority.
    We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in
subtitle VII, part A, subpart III, section 44701, ``General
requirements.'' Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing
regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator
finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within
the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition
that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this
rulemaking action.

Regulatory Findings

    We have determined that this AD will not have federalism
implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have 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.
    For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:
    (1) Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under Executive
Order 12866;
    (2) Is not a ``significant rule'' under DOT Regulatory Policies and
Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979); and
    (3) Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or
negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
    We prepared a summary of the costs to comply with this AD and
placed it in the AD Docket. You may get a copy of this summary at the
address listed under ADDRESSES.

[Docket Number USCG-2018-0810]
RIN 1625-AA00

Safety Zone; Delaware River Fireworks Display, Delaware River,
Philadelphia, PA

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Temporary final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary safety zone for
navigable waters of the Delaware River in the vicinity of Penn's
Landing, Philadelphia, PA, from 8:30 p.m. through 9:30 p.m. on
September 1, 2018, during the Delaware River Waterfront Corp Fireworks
Display. The safety zone is necessary to ensure the safety of
participant vessels, spectators, and the boating public during the
event. This regulation prohibits persons and non-participant vessels
from entering, transiting through, anchoring in or remaining within the
safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Delaware Bay
or a designated representative.

DATES: This rule is effective from 8:30 p.m. through 9:30 p.m. on
September 1, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Table of Abbreviations

CFR Code of Federal Regulations
COTP Captain of the Port
DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec.  Section
U.S.C. United States Code

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    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 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 it is impracticable and contrary to
the public interest to do so. The rule must be established by September
1, 2018, to serve its purpose of ensuring the safety of spectators and
the general public from hazards associated with the fireworks display.
Hazards include accidental discharge of fireworks, dangerous
projectiles, and falling hot embers or other debris.
    Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that good cause
exists for making this rule effective less than 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register. Delaying the effective date of
this rule would be impracticable and contrary to the public interest
because immediate action is needed to mitigate the potential safety
hazards associated with a fireworks display in this location.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 33 U.S.C.
1231. The Captain of the Port Delaware Bay (COTP) has determined that
potential hazards associated with the fireworks display on September 1,
2018, will be a safety concern for anyone within a 500-yard radius of
the fireworks barge, which will be anchored in approximate position
39[deg]56'49.66'' N, 075[deg]08'11.69'' W. This rule is needed to
protect persons, vessels and the public near the fireworks barge during
the fireworks display.

IV. Discussion of the Rule

    This rule establishes a temporary safety zone from 8:30 p.m.
through 9:30 p.m. on September 1, 2018, for the navigable waters in the
vicinity of Penn's Landing, Philadelphia, PA, during a fireworks
display from a barge. The event is scheduled to take place at
approximately 9 p.m. on September 1, 2018. The safety zone will extend
500 yards around the barge, which will be anchored at approximate
position 39[deg]56'49.66'' N, 075[deg]08'11.69'' W. Persons or vessels
will not be permitted to enter, transit through, anchor in or remain
within the safety zone without obtaining permission from the COTP or
the COTP's designated representative. If authorization to enter,
transit through, anchor in or remain within the safety zone is granted
by the COTP or the COTP's designated representative, all persons and
vessels receiving such authorization must comply with the instructions
of the COTP or the COTP's designated representative. The Coast Guard
will provide public notice of the safety zone by Broadcast Notice to
Mariners and by on-scene actual notice.

V. Regulatory Analyses

    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

    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 13771 directs agencies to control
regulatory costs through a budgeting process. This rule has not been
designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order
12866. Accordingly, this rule has not been reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt
from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
location, duration, and time-of-day of the safety zone. Vessel traffic
will be able to safely transit around this safety zone, which will
impact a small designated area of the Delaware River for one hour
during the evening when vessel traffic is normally low. Although
persons and vessels may not enter, transit through, anchor in or remain
within the safety zone without authorization from the COTP or a
designated representative of the COTP, they may operate in the
surrounding area during the enforcement period. Additionally, persons
and vessels will be able to enter, transit through, anchor in or remain
within the safety zone if authorized by the COTP or the COTP's
designated representative. The Coast Guard will provide advance
notification of the safety zone to the local maritime community by
Broadcast Notice to Mariners, and by on-scene actual notice from
designated representatives.

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 rule
will 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
V.A above, this rule will not have a significant economic impact on any
vessel owner or operator.
    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.
    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.

C. 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).

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 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 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. 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
Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.1D, 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
a safety zone that will prohibit persons and vessels from entering,
transiting through, anchoring in or remaining within a limited area on
the navigable water in the Delaware Bay, during a fireworks display
lasting one hour. It is categorically excluded from further review
under paragraph L60(a) of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual
023-01-001-01, Rev. 01. A Record of Environmental Consideration (REC)
supporting this determination is available in the docket where
indicated under ADDRESSES.

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.
