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

Basis and Purpose

    Senator Phil Rockefeller and Representative Christine Rolfes of the
Washington State Legislature requested that the operating regulations
of the Hood Canal Bridge be changed to provide some relief to road
traffic on State Routes 3 and 104. Traffic queues south of the eastern
end of the bridge can be in excess of 45 minutes during and after
openings of the draw span. The stopped road traffic on this two-lane
highway blocks access to intersecting streets along the queue. The
current operating regulations for the bridge are found at 33 CFR
117.1045. Per existing operating regulations, the bridge shall open on
signal if at least one hour notice is provided and that the draw shall
be opened horizontally for three hundred feet unless the maximum
opening of 600 feet is requested. The current regulations remain in
effect except for the establishment of the restricted period.
Navigation on the waterway consists of commercial tugs with tows,
recreational vessels of various sizes, commercial fishing vessels, and
U.S. naval vessels with escort vessels including those of the U.S.
Coast Guard. This proposed change to the Hood Canal draw span operating
schedule will not affect commercial tug and tow vessels nor will it
affect U.S. Naval Vessels or vessels in service to the U.S. Navy or
other pubic vessels of the United States because pursuant to the
modification, the bridge is required to open for these types of vessels
during the restricted period. The Coast Guard conducted a test
deviation of the bridge operating schedule from May 27, 2011 through
September 30, 2011 during which the bridge was not required to open
from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. except for U.S. Navy Vessels and vessels
attending the missions of the U.S. Navy. This test deviation was
published in the Federal Register under docket number USCG-2010-0314
and comments were received and evaluated during the comment period
which ended November 30, 2011.
    Comments received, during the test deviation, from waterway and
roadway users as well as public and private interest were evaluated and
considered while developing this proposed deviation.

Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The proposed deviation will allow the bridge to not open for vessel
traffic from 3 p.m. to 6:15 p.m. daily from 3 p.m. May 22 to 6:15 p.m.
September 30 except for commercial tug and tow vessels and vessels of
the U.S. Navy or vessels attending the missions of the U.S. Navy and
other public vessels of the United States. At all other times the
bridge will operate in accordance with 33 CFR 117.1045.
    The Hood Canal Bridge provides three navigational openings for
vessel passage, the movable floating span, subject to this proposed
change, and two fixed navigational openings; one on the east end of the
bridge at Salsbury Point, and one on the west end of the bridge at
Termination Point. The fixed navigational opening on the east end of
the bridge provides a horizontal clearance of 230 feet and a vertical
clearance of 50 feet above mean high water. The opening on the west end
of the bridge provides a horizontal clearance of 230 feet and a
vertical clearance of 35 feet above mean high water. Vessels that are
able to safely pass through the fixed navigational openings are allowed
to do so during the restricted period.

Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed 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.

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, and does not require an
assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of
Executive Order 12866. The Office of Management and Budget has not
reviewed it under that Order. We have reached this conclusion by the
fact that commercial tow vessels and U.S. Naval Vessels are exempt from
the restricted openings. Vessels that would be primarily affected are
recreational vessels that are not able to pass through the fixed
navigational channels of the bridge. Vessels affected by the restricted
opening schedule will be able to plan their trips to avoid the
restricted period.

Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have
considered whether this proposed rule would have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities. 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. This proposed rule would primarily affect
recreational sailboats which have mast heights that preclude them from
passing under the fixed navigational openings in the bridge. Vessels
which require an opening will be informed of the restricted closure
period via the Coast Guard's Local Notice to Mariners which will allow
them to plan trips to avoid this time frame.
    If you think 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.

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 so that they can better
evaluate its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking. 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 Randall Overton, Coast Guard
Bridge Administrator, 13th Coast Guard District, at<PHONE_NUMBER>. 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.

Collection of Information

    This proposed rule would call for no new collection of information
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial
direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this proposed rule
under that Order and have determined that it does not have implications
for federalism.

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

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.

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.

Protection of Children

    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.

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.

Energy Effects

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 13211,
Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ``significant
energy action'' under that order because it is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to
have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use
of energy. The Administrator of the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy
action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects
under Executive Order 13211.

Technical Standards

    The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards
in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress,
through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why
using these standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical
standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance, design, or
operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related management
systems practices) that are developed or adopted by voluntary consensus
standards bodies.
    This proposed rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we
did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Department of Homeland
Security Management Directive 023-01, and Commandant Instruction
M16475.lD which guides 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 which do not individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on

the human environment because it simply promulgates the operating
regulations or procedures for drawbridges. We seek any comments or
information that may lead to the discovery of a significant
environmental impact from this proposed rule.

List of Subjects in 33 CFR Part 117

    Bridges.

    For the reasons discussed in the preamble, the Coast Guard proposes
to amend 33 CFR part 117 as follows:

PART 117--DRAWBRIDGE OPERATION REGULATIONS

    1. The authority citation for part 117 continues to read as
follows:

    Authority: 33 U.S.C. 499; 33 CFR 1.05-1; Department of Homeland
Security Delegation No. 0170.1.

    2. Amend Sec.  117.1045 by adding the below text as paragraph (b)
and changing the current paragraph (b) to read (c) and current
paragraph (c) to read (d):

Sec.  117.1045  Hood Canal.

    (b) The draw of the Hood Canal Bridge, mile 5.0, need not open for
vessel traffic from 3 p.m. to 6:15 p.m. daily from 3 p.m. May 22 to
6:16 p.m. September 30, except for commercial tug and tow vessels and
vessels of the U.S. Navy or vessels attending the missions of the U.S.
Navy and other public vessels of the United States. At all other times
the bridge will operate in accordance with subparagraph (a) of this
section.
