Laura M. Plunkett, Ph. D, DABT Integrative Biostrategies, LLC Houston, Texas March 2006 Interspecies Analysis ( Plunkett et al.)

Research Undertaken to Examine the Magnitude of Interspecies Differences in Adult Responses to DDVP Exposure Response = Red Blood Cell ( RBC) Cholinesterase Inhibition ( ChEI)

DDVP Human Database is Uniquely Large and Robust, With Studies Examining a Variety of Endpoints and Issues   Pharmaceutical uses ( anti worming drug, geriatric dementias)

  Insect vector control ( public health studies, e. g., WHO, CDC, FAA)

  Occupational exposure studies ( regulatory bodies, academics, industry)

  Product safety assessment ( Amvac Chemical Corp., Shell Chemical)

  Metabolism/ kinetics   Data on 1000  s of people exposed to DDVP Integrative Biostrategies, LLC science for decision making Methods Used Very Large Available Human Database ( More than 300 Studies) Reviewed, with Robust Animal Database, to Identify Information Useful for Dose Response Analysis Data/ Study Inclusion Criteria   Quantifiable exposure ( mg DDVP/ kg/ day)

  Adequate description of analytical methods   Consistency of analytical method   Data reporting in a quantitative form   No evidence of non ethical study conduct   Data only for adult ( non pregnant) humans and animals Integrative Biostrategies, LLC science for decision making Methods Used ( cont'd)

Main Reasons Studies Not Included in this Analysis   Qualitative statements of no significant effect, but without quantitative measurements necessary for this analysis   Studies of pro drug form, making dose assessment problematic for this analysis   Studies on populations other than non pregnant adults   Studies not included provide valuable information on other analyses relevant to DDVP assessment   e. g., issues addressing intraspecies differences, pharmacokinetics,

exposure Exclusion of studies does not diminish their value as part of the whole human database and for other analyses Comments on Studies Dismissed by EPA in WOE and Used in this Analysis Gledhill 1997a, 1997b: EPA analysis incorrect for failing to consider published human and animal data demonstrating that cholinesterase peak inhibition in RBC with DDVP exposure does NOT recover to any significant extent within 24 hours ( Ueda and Nishimura 1967;

Nordgren et al. 1980; Plestina et al. 1972; Dingemanse et al. 1999)

Slomka and Hine 1981: EPA comment incorrect as authors report a bioavailability factor.

Funckes et al 1963: Study not used in this analysis.

Johnston et al. 2002: Study not used in this analysis.

Shell Chemical 1970: Data used only from adults ( non pregnant).

Smith et al. 1972; Ueda and Nishimura 1967; Witter et al. 1961: EPA incorrect because all data points, regardless of exposure duration, provide relevant information for a weight of the evidence interspecies assessment.

Stein et al. 1966: EPA comment incorrect as data used were for a handler population where exposure data were well described and reliable. Other Comments on Studies Dismissed by EPA and Used in the MacGregor 2005 Analysis or in this Analysis Johnston et al. 2002: EPA used this study in the June 2005 risk assessment for DDVP to determine an NOAEL for chronic inhalation exposure.

Youngren et al. 2006: This new study addresses only data from non pregnant adults and provides information on the same endpoints as Johnston et al. 2002.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    OMB Approval No. 2138-0009.
    Title: Report of Financial and Operating Statistics for Small
Aircraft Operators.
    Form No.: BTS Form 298-C.
    Type Of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection for
the financial data.
    Respondents: Small certificated (22) and commuter air carriers
(41).

Schedule F1:

    Number of Respondents: 63.
    Number of Annual Responses: 252.
    Total Burden per Response: 4 hours.
    Total Annual Burden: 1,008 hours.

Schedule F2:

    Number of Respondents: 22.
    Number of Annual Responses: 88.
    Total Burden per Response: 12 hours.
    Total Annual Burden: 1,056 hours.

    Needs and Uses: Program uses for Form 298-C financial data are as
follows:

Mail Rates

    The Department of Transportation sets and updates the Intra-Alaska
Bush mail rates based on carrier aircraft operating expense, traffic,
and operational data. Form 298-C cost data, especially fuel costs,
terminal expenses, and line haul expenses are used in arriving at rate
levels. DOT revises the established rates based on the percentage of
unit cost changes in the carriers' operations. These updating
procedures have resulted in the carriers receiving rates of
compensation that more closely parallel their costs of providing mail
service and contribute to the carriers' economic well-being.

Essential Air Service

    DOT often has to select a carrier to provide a community's
essential air service. The selection criteria include historic presence
in the community, reliability of service, financial stability and cost
structure of the air carrier.

Carrier Fitness

    Fitness determinations are made for both new entrants and
established U.S. domestic carriers proposing a substantial change in
operations. A portion of these applications consists of an operating
plan for the first year (14 CFR part 204) and an associated projection
of revenues and expenses. The carrier's operating costs, included in
these projections, are compared against the cost data in Form 298-C for
a carrier or carriers with the same aircraft type and similar operating
characteristics. Such a review validates the reasonableness of the
carrier's operating plan.
    The quarterly financial submissions by commuter and small
certificated air carriers are used in determining each carrier's
continuing fitness to operate. Section 41738 of Title 49 of the United
States Code requires DOT to find all commuter and small certificated
air carriers fit, willing, and able to conduct passenger service as a
prerequisite to providing such service to an eligible essential air
service point. In making a fitness determination, DOT reviews three
areas of a carrier's operation: (1) The qualifications of its
management team, (2) its disposition to comply with laws and
regulations, and (3) its financial posture. DOT must determine whether
or not a carrier has sufficient financial resources to conduct its
operations without imposing undue risk on the traveling public.
Moreover, once a carrier begins conducting flight operations, DOT is
required to monitor its continuing fitness.
    Senior DOT officials must be kept fully informed and advised of all
current and developing economic issues affecting the airline industry.
In preparing financial condition reports or status reports on a
particular airline, financial and traffic data are analyzed. Briefing
papers prepared for senior DOT officials may use the same information.
    The Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency
Act of 2002 (44 U.S.C. 3501 note), requires a statistical agency to
clearly identify information it collects for non-statistical purposes.
BTS hereby notifies the respondents and the public that BTS uses the
information it collects under this OMB approval for non-statistical
purposes including, but not limited to, publication of both
Respondent's identity and its data, submission of the information to
agencies outside BTS for review, analysis and possible use in
regulatory and other administrative matters.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; New York Stock Exchange LLC;
Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed Rule Change To
Amend its Price List

November 2, 2020.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) \1\ of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the ``Act'') \2\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\3\ notice is hereby
given that, on October 20, 2020, New York Stock Exchange LLC (``NYSE''
or the ``Exchange'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the ``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I,
II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the self-
regulatory organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 15 U.S.C. 78a.
    \3\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The Exchange proposes to amend its Price List to reduce the gross
FOCUS fee charged to member organizations, effective January 1, 2021.
The proposed rule change is available on the Exchange's website at
www.nyse.com, at the principal office of the Exchange, and at the
Commission's Public Reference Room.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the self-regulatory organization
included statements concerning the purpose of, and basis for, the
proposed rule change and discussed any comments it received on the
proposed rule change. The text of those statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared
summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most
significant parts of such statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend its Price List to reduce the gross
FOCUS fee from $0.12 per $1,000 Gross FOCUS Revenue to $0.11 per $1,000
Gross FOCUS Revenue, effective January 1, 2021.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Exchange proposes to immediately reflect the proposed
change in its Price List but not implement the proposed rate change
until January 1, 2021.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background
    Rule 129 provides that the Exchange's Board may, from time to time,
impose such charge or charges on members and member organizations as it
deems appropriate to reimburse the Exchange, in whole or in part, for
regulatory oversight services provided to the membership by the
Exchange. Generally, the Exchange may only use regulatory fees ``to
fund the legal, regulatory and surveillance operations'' of the
Exchange.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See Thirteenth Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of
New York Stock Exchange LLC, Art. IV, Sec. 4.05, available at
https://www.nyse.com/publicdocs/nyse/regulation/nyse/Thirteenth_Amended_and_Restated_Operating_Agreement_of_New_York_Stock_Exchange_LLC.pdf. The Exchange considers surveillance operations of
its member organizations part of regulatory operations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Consistent with the foregoing, the Exchange currently charges each
member organization a monthly regulatory fee of $0.12 per $1,000 of
gross revenue reported on its FOCUS Report (``Gross FOCUS Fee'').\6\
Member

organizations are subject to certain minimum annual Gross FOCUS Fees,
which are $500 for carrying firms and designated market makers
(``DMMs''), $250 for introducing firms, and $45 for member
organizations who do not conduct a public business. The revenue
collected pursuant to the Gross FOCUS Fee funds the performance of the
Exchange's regulatory activities with respect to member organizations,
including surveillance operations expenses. More specifically, the
revenue generated by the Gross FOCUS Fee funds a material portion, but
not all, of the Exchange's expenses related to third-party service
providers and technology and other expenses related to market
surveillance.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ FOCUS is an acronym for Financial and Operational Combined
Uniform Single Report. FOCUS Reports are filed periodically with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the ``Commission'' or ``SEC'')
as SEC Form X-17A-5 pursuant to Rule 17a-5 under the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange has sought to perform its regulatory functions in an
effective and efficient manner. For example, beginning January 2021,
the Exchange anticipates that it will have fully transitioned from its
existing third-party surveillance system to a lower-cost, cloud-based
surveillance solution. Consistent with these anticipated cost savings,
the Exchange will be decreasing the Gross FOCUS Fee by approximately
8%.
Proposed Rule Change
    Consistent with the anticipated reduced regulatory costs, the
Exchange proposes to reduce the rate of the Gross FOCUS Fee by
approximately 8% from $0.12 per $1,000 of gross revenue to $0.11 per
$1,000 of gross revenue, effective January 1, 2021. The Exchange
proposes this reduction to reflect cost savings associated with its
move to more cost-effective surveillance and regulatory solutions. The
Exchange notes that the Gross FOCUS Fee has remained unchanged since
April 2013.\7\

    \7\ See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 69101 (March 11,
2013), 78 FR 16551 (March 15, 2013) (SR-NYSE-2013-19).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange will continue to monitor the amount of revenue
collected from the Gross FOCUS Fee to ensure that it, in combination
with its other regulatory fees and fines, does not exceed regulatory
costs. The Exchange expects to monitor regulatory costs and revenues on
an annual basis, at a minimum. If the Exchange determines that
regulatory revenues exceed regulatory costs, the Exchange would adjust
the Gross FOCUS Fee downward by submitting a fee change filing to the
Commission.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent
with the provisions of Section 6(b) \8\ of the Act, in general, and
Section 6(b)(4) and (5) \9\ of the Act, in particular, in that it is
designed to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues,
fees, and other charges among its members and other persons using its
facilities and does not unfairly discriminate between customers,
issuers, brokers, or dealers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b).
    \9\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4) and (5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Proposal is Reasonable
    The Exchange believes the proposed fee change is reasonable because
it would help ensure that revenue collected from the Gross FOCUS Fee
does not exceed a material portion of the Exchange's regulatory costs.
The Exchange has targeted the Gross FOCUS Fee to generate revenues that
would be less than or equal to the Exchange's regulatory costs, which
is consistent with both Rule 129 and the Commission's view that
regulatory fees be used for regulatory purposes. As noted above, the
principle that the Exchange may only use regulatory fees ``to fund the
legal, regulatory, and surveillance operations'' of the Exchange is
reflected in the Exchange's operating agreement.\10\ In this regard,
the Gross FOCUS Fee has been calculated to recover a material portion,
but not all, of the Exchange's expenses related to third-party service
providers and technology and other expenses related to market
surveillance. The Exchange accordingly believes reducing the Gross
FOCUS Fee is fair and reasonable.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See note 5, supra.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Proposal is an Equitable Allocation of Fees
    The Exchange believes its proposal is an equitable allocation of
fees among its market participants. The Exchange believes that the
proposed Gross FOCUS Fee reduction would benefit all member
organizations because all member organizations would pay the same rate
per $1,000 of gross revenue. For the same reasons, the proposed fee
reduction neither targets nor will it have a disparate impact on any
particular category of market participant. All similarly-situated
member organizations would be eligible to qualify for the lower Gross
FOCUS Fee. Thus, the Exchange believes the decreased Gross FOCUS Fee
would be equitably allocated in that it is charged to all member
organizations equally.
The Proposed Fee is not Unfairly Discriminatory
    The Exchange believes that the proposal is not unfairly
discriminatory. The proposed reduction of the Gross FOCUS Fee would
benefit all similarly-situated market participants on an equal and non-
discriminatory basis. Moreover, the proposal neither targets nor will
it have a disparate impact on any particular category of market
participant. The proposed fee change is designed to pass along
regulatory cost savings, which would apply to and benefit all member
organizations equally.
    For the foregoing reasons, the Exchange believes that the proposal
is consistent with the Act.

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
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange does not
believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on
competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the
purposes of the Act.
    Intramarket Competition. The Exchange believes the proposed fee
change would not impose an undue burden on competition as it is charged
to all member organizations to support the Exchange's regulatory
program, including its surveillance program. The Exchange believes that
the proposed Gross FOCUS Fee would not place certain market
participants at an unfair disadvantage because all member organizations
would pay the same rate per $1,000 of gross revenue. For the same
reasons, the proposed fee reduction neither targets nor will it have a
disparate impact on any particular category of market participant. All
similarly-situated member organizations would be eligible to qualify
for the lower Gross FOCUS Fee.
    Intermarket Competition. The proposed fee change is not designed to
address any competitive issues. Rather, the proposed change is designed
to help the Exchange adequately fund its regulatory surveillance while
seeking to ensure that total regulatory revenues do not exceed total
regulatory costs.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the
proposed rule change.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    The foregoing rule change is effective upon filing pursuant to
Section 19(b)(3)(A) \11\ of the Act and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule
19b-4 \12\ thereunder, because it establishes a due, fee, or other
charge imposed by the Exchange.

    At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings under
Section 19(b)(2)(B) \13\ of the Act to determine whether the proposed
rule change should be approved or disapproved.

B. Regulatory History and Information

    Previously, the Coast Guard promulgated either safety zones or
special local regulations for most of the events associated with this
proposed rule and received no public comments. The most recent
promulgated rulemaking was on May 24, 2013 when the Coast Guard
published a Final Rule, entitled, ``Safety Zones and Special Local
Regulations; Recurring Marine Events in Captain of the Port Sector Long
Island Sound Zone'' in the Federal Register (78 FR 31402).

C. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for this rulemaking is 33 U.S.C. 1233, which
authorizes the Coast Guard to establish special local regulations.
    This proposed regulation carries out two related actions: (1)
Establishing necessary special local regulations; and (2) updating and
reorganizing existing regulations for ease of use and reduction of
administrative overhead.

D. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The Coast Guard proposes to amend 33 CFR 100.100 ``Special Local
Regulations; Regattas and Boat Races in the Coast Guard Sector Long
Island Sound Captain of the Port Zone'' by establishing 16 permanent
marine events regulated areas, removing five, and modifying three
marine event special local regulations. By proposing these permanent
regulation updates, we are providing the public with an opportunity to
comment on these changes. This rulemaking limits the unnecessary burden
of establishing temporary rules for events that occur on an annual
basis.

(1) Establishing New Marine Event Regulated Areas

    This rulemaking proposes to establish 16 permanent marine event
special local regulations under 33 CFR 100.100. These events include
fireworks displays, swimming events, and regattas that take place
throughout the Long Island Sound COTP Zone. Event locations and details
are listed below in the text of the regulation. Because large numbers
of spectator vessels are expected to congregate around the location of
these events, these regulated areas are needed to protect both
spectators and participants from the safety hazards associated with
marine events, including large numbers of swimmers, hard to see and
unstable small boats, unexpected pyrotechnics detonation, and burning
debris. This rule would permanently establish regulated areas that
restrict vessel movement around the location of each marine event to
reduce the associated safety.
    During the enforcement period of the regulated areas, persons and
vessels would be prohibited from entering, transiting through,
remaining, anchoring, or mooring within the regulated area unless
specifically authorized by the COTP or the designated representative.
Persons and vessels would be able to request authorization to enter,
transit through, remain, anchor, or moor within the regulated areas by
contacting the COTP Sector Long Island Sound, or designated
representative, by telephone at<PHONE_NUMBER> or via VHF radio on
channel 16. If authorization to enter, transit through, remain, anchor,
or moor within any of the regulated areas is granted, all persons and
vessels receiving authorization would be required to comply with the
instructions of the COTP or designated representative.
    The Coast Guard COTP Sector Long Island Sound or designated
representative would enforce the regulated areas. These designated
representatives are comprised of commissioned, warrant, and petty
officers of the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard may be assisted by other
federal, state and local agencies in the enforcement of these regulated
areas.
    Certain special local regulations are listed without known dates or
times. Coast Guard Sector Long Island Sound will cause notice of the
enforcement of these regulated areas to be made by all appropriate
means to affect the widest publicity among the effected segments of the
public, including publication in the Federal Register as a Notice of
Enforcement, Local Notice to Mariners, and Broadcast Notice to
Mariners.

(2) Remove old Special Local Regulations That Are no Longer Needed

    This rulemaking proposes to remove five special local regulations
from the TABLE to Sec.  100.100: (1) 1.3 Head of the Connecticut
Regatta, Connecticut River, CT as the event has not been held since
2012 and the sponsoring organization, the City of Middletown, has
confirmed that they do not intend to hold the event again in the
foreseeable future; (2) 1.4 Riverfront Regatta, Hartford, CT as the
event's details have significantly changed and is no longer the same
event; (3) 1.5 Patchogue Grand Prix, Patchogue, NY as the event has not
been held since 2010 and the sponsoring organization, Offshore
Powerboat Association, has confirmed that they do not intend to hold
the event again in the foreseeable future; (4) 1.6 Riverfront U.S.
Title series Powerboat Race, Hartford, CT as the event has not been
held since 2011 and the sponsoring organization, Riverfront Recaptured,
has confirmed that they do not intend to hold the event again in the
foreseeable future; and (5) 1.8 Kayak for a Cause Regatta as the event
has not been held since 2012 and the sponsoring organization, Kayak for
a Cause, has disbanded.

(3) Modify and Update Existing Regulated Areas

    This rule proposes to amend the following special local regulations
from the TABLE to Sec.  100.100: (1) 1.1 Harvard-Yale Regatta, Thames
River, New London, CT is to be moved to 5.1 on the TABLE to Sec.
100.100; (2) 1.2 Great Connecticut River Raft Race, Middletown is to be
moved to 7.1 on the TABLE to Sec.  100.100 and the name changed to
Connecticut River Raft Race, Middletown, CT; and (3) 1.7 Hartford
Dragon Boat Regatta is be renamed the Riverfront Dragon Boat and Asian
Festival and to be moved to 8.1 on the TABLE to Sec.  100.100.

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 Coast Guard determined that this proposed rulemaking is not a
significant

regulatory action for the following reasons: The regulated areas are of
limited duration and vessels may transit the navigable waterways
outside of the regulated areas. Persons or vessels requiring entry into
the regulated areas may be authorized to do so by the COTP Sector Long
Island Sound or designated representative.
    Advanced public notifications will also be made to local mariners
through appropriate means, which may include but is not limited to
Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to Mariners.

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 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 will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
    This proposed rule would affect the following entities, some of
which may be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels
intending to enter, transit, anchor or moor within the regulated areas
during the enforcement periods.
    The special local regulations will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities for the following
reasons: The regulated areas are of short duration, vessels that can
safely do so may navigate in all other portions of the waterways except
for the areas designated as regulated areas, and vessels requiring
entry into the regulated areas may be authorized to do so by the COTP
Sector Long Island Sound or designated representative. Additionally,
before the enforcement periods, public notifications will be made to
local mariners through appropriate means, which may include but is not
limited to Local Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to Mariners.
    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 rulemaking 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
establishment of special local regulations. This rule may be
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.
