NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

A. Regulatory History and Information

    The regulation for this marine event may be found at 33 CFR
100.501, Table to Sec.  100.501, section (a), line ``13''.
    The Coast Guard is issuing this final rule pursuant to authority
under section 4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C.
553(b) and (d)(3)), which authorizes an agency to issue a rule without
prior notice and opportunity to comment, and to take effect in less
than 30 days, when the agency for good cause finds that those
procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.'' The Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for not
publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) with respect to this
rule because immediate action is needed to minimize potential danger to
the public during the event. The potential dangers posed by air shows
make this change to the special local regulation necessary to provide
for the safety of participants, spectator craft, and other vessels
transiting the event area. For the safety concerns noted, it is in the
public interest to have this regulation in effect during the event. The
Coast Guard will issue broadcast notice to mariners to advise vessel
operators of navigational restrictions. On scene Coast Guard and local
law enforcement vessels will also provide actual notice to mariners.
For the same reasons, 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 would be contrary to the
public interest, because immediate action is needed to ensure the
safety of the event. However, notifications will be made to users of
the affected area near Ocean City, NJ, via marine information
broadcasts and a local notice to mariners.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis and authorities for this rulemaking establishing a
special local regulation are found in 33 U.S.C. 1233, which authorize
the Coast Guard to establish and define special local regulations. The
Captain of the Port Delaware Bay is establishing a special local
regulation for the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, near Ocean City, NJ,
to protect event participants, spectators and transiting vessels. Entry
into this area is prohibited unless specifically authorized by the
Captain of the Port Delaware Bay or designated representative.

C. Discussion of the Final Rule

    The City of Ocean City sponsors an annual Air Show usually held on
the third Sunday in September over the waters of the Atlantic Ocean
adjacent to Ocean City, New Jersey.
    The regulation listing annual marine events within the Fifth Coast
Guard District and special local regulation locations is 33 CFR
100.501. The Table to Sec.  100.501 identifies special local
regulations by COTP zone, with the COTP Delaware Bay zone listed in
section ``(a.)'' of the Table. The Table to Sec.  100.501, at section
(a.) event Number ``13'', describes the enforcement date and regulated
location for this marine event.

    The date listed in the Table has the marine event on the third
Sunday of September. However, this temporary rule changes the marine
event date to September 14, 2014, to reflect the actual date of the
event.
    A fleet of spectator vessels is anticipated to gather nearby to
view the marine event. Due to the need for vessel control during the
marine event vessel traffic will be temporarily restricted to provide
for the safety of participants, spectators and transiting vessels.
Under provisions of 33 CFR 100.501, during the enforcement period,
vessels may not enter the regulated area unless they receive permission
from the Coast Guard Patrol Commander.
    The Coast Guard will temporarily suspend the regulation listed in
Table to Sec.  100.501, section (a) event Number ``13'', and insert
this temporary regulation at Table to Sec.  100.501, at section (a.) as
event Number ``16'', in order to reflect that the safety zone will be
effective and enforced from 12:00 p.m. until 3:30 p.m. on September 14,
2014. This change is needed to accommodate the sponsor's event plan. No
other portion of the Table to Sec.  100.501 or other provisions in
Sec.  100.501 shall be affected by this regulation.
    The regulated area of this special local regulation includes All
waters of the New Jersey Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) bounded by a line
connecting the following points; latitude 39[deg]15'57'' N, longitude
074[deg]35'09'' W thence northeast to latitude 39[deg]16''34'' N,
longitude 074[deg]33'54'' W thence southeast to latitude 39[deg]16'17''
N, longitude 074[deg]33'29'' W thence southwest to latitude
39[deg]15'40'' N, longitude 074[deg]34'46'' W thence northwest to point
of origin, near Ocean City, NJ.
    During the period of the safety zone, all persons and vessels will
be prohibited from entering, transiting, mooring, or remaining within
the zone, unless specifically authorized by the Captain of the Port
Delaware Bay, or her designated representative. Those persons
authorized to transit through the safety zone shall abide by and follow
all directions provided by the Captain of the Port Delaware Bay, or her
designated representative, in order to ensure they are not disrupting
this marine event. U.S. Coast Guard Sector Delaware Bay will notify the
public by broadcast notice to mariners at least one hour prior to the
times of enforcement.

D. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on 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
will restrict access to the regulated area, the effect of this rule
will not be significant because: (i) The Coast Guard will make
extensive notification of the Safety Zone to the maritime public via
maritime advisories so mariners can alter their plans accordingly; (ii)
vessels may still be permitted to transit through the safety zone with
the permission of the Captain of the Port on a case-by-case basis; and
(iii) this rule will be enforced for only the duration of the air show.

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 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 anchor or transit along a portion of the Atlantic Ocean
adjacent to Ocean City, New Jersey from 12:00 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. on
September 14, 2014, unless cancelled earlier by the Captain of the Port
once all operations are completed.
    This safety zone will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities for the following reason: Vessel
traffic will be allowed to pass through the zone with permission of the
Coast Guard Captain of the Port Delaware Bay or her designated
representative and zone is limited in size and duration. Sector
Delaware Bay will issue maritime advisories widely available to users
of the Delaware Bay and River.

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 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 implementation of regulations within 33
CFR Part 100, applicable to special local regulations on the navigable
waterways. This zone will temporarily restrict vessel traffic from
transiting the waters of the Atlantic Ocean adjacent to Ocean City, NJ,
in order to protect the safety of life and property on the waters for
the duration of the air show. This rule is categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph 34(h) 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.

Airworthiness Directives; Mooney Aviation Company, Inc. (Mooney)
Airplanes

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Final rule; request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: We are issuing an airworthiness directive (AD) for all Mooney
Aviation Company, Inc. (Mooney) Models M20B, M20C, M20D, M20E, M20F,
M20G, M20J, M20K, M20L, M20M, M20R, M20S, and M20TN airplanes that
supersedes an existing AD that is applicable to certain Model M20R and
M20TN airplanes. The existing AD currently requires inspecting the tail
pitch trim assembly for correct positioning and proper attachment and
inspecting the Huck Bolt fasteners for proper security with repair as
necessary for certain Models M20R and M20TN. That AD also requires
sending the inspection results to the FAA and Mooney. This AD retains
all of the actions, except the reporting requirement from the previous
AD and adds airplane models to the applicability. This AD was prompted
by a report of an incident on a Mooney Model M20TN airplane regarding
failure of the tail pitch trim assembly, which could result in loss of
control. We are issuing this AD to correct the unsafe condition on
these products.

DATES: This AD is effective March 20, 2012.
    The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in the AD as of March 20,
2012.
    We must receive any comments on this AD by May 4, 2012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Discussion

    On February 16, 2012, we issued AD 2012-03-52, amendment 39-16958
(77 FR 12179, February 29, 2012), for certain Mooney Aviation Company,
Inc. (Mooney) Models M20R and M20TN airplanes. That AD requires
inspecting the tail pitch trim assembly for correct positioning and
proper attachment and inspecting the Huck Bolt fasteners for proper
security with repair as necessary. That AD also requires sending the
inspection results to the FAA and Mooney. That AD resulted from a
report of an incident on a Mooney Model M20TN airplane regarding
failure of the tail pitch trim assembly, which could result in loss of
control. We issued that AD to detect incorrect positioning and improper
attachment of the trim fitting, hinge, and filler plate of the tail
pitch trim assembly and to verify security of the attaching Huck Bolt
fasteners, which could lead to failure of the tail pitch trim assembly
with consequent loss of pitch control.

Actions Since AD Was Issued

    Since we issued AD 2012-03-52 (77 FR 12179, February 29, 2012), we
received a report from an owner/operator of a Model M20J airplane who
had the airplane inspected and found the same unsafe condition. Since
the Models M20B, M20C, M20D, M20E, M20F, M20G, M20J, M20K, M20L, M20M,
and M20S airplanes have the same type design as the Models M20R and
M20TN airplanes, we determined that these airplanes should be added to
the applicability of the AD to ensure that the unsafe condition is
addressed on all airplanes of the type design.
    Also, Mooney published new service information that includes the
expanded airplane applicability and instructions for installing
replacement fasteners, if necessary.

Relevant Service Information

    We reviewed Mooney Aviation Company, Inc. Service Bulletin No. M20-
313A, dated February 29, 2012; and Service Bulletin No. M20-314A, dated
February 29, 2012. The service information describes procedures for
inspecting the tail pitch trim assembly for correct positioning and
proper attachment, inspecting the Huck Bolt fasteners for proper
security, and installing replacement fasteners, if necessary.

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 inspecting the trim fitting, hinge, and filler
plate of the tail pitch trim assembly for correct positioning and
proper attachment, and inspecting the Huck Bolt fasteners for proper
security on all Mooney Models M20B, M20C, M20D, M20E, M20F, M20G, M20J,
M20K, M20L, M20M, M20R, M20S, and M20TN airplanes. If incorrect
positioning or improper/loose attachment is found, this AD requires
installing replacement parts and fasteners. These are the same actions
currently required by AD 2012-03-52 for certain Mooney Models M20R and
M20TN airplanes, except the reporting requirement is no longer
required.

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
failure of the tail pitch trim assembly could result in loss of
control. 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 we did not provide you with notice and an opportunity to
provide your comments before it becomes effective. However, we invite
you to send any written data, views, or arguments about this AD. Send
your comments to an address listed under the ADDRESSES section. Include
the docket number FAA-2012-0275 and directorate identifier 2012-CE-009-
AD at the beginning of your comments. We specifically invite comments
on the overall regulatory, economic, environmental, and energy aspects
of this AD. We will consider all comments received by the closing date
and may amend this AD 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 AD.

Costs of Compliance

    We estimate that this AD affects 6,630 airplanes of U.S. registry.
    We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD:

                                                 Estimated Costs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                                Cost per     Cost on U.S.

 security of the Huck Bolt
 fasteners.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    We estimate the following costs to do any necessary replacement of
the parts and Huck Bolt fasteners that will be required based on the
results of the inspection. We have no way of determining the number of
aircraft that might need this repair:

                                               On-Condition Costs

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

    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.

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
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),
    (3) Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
    (4) 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.

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    On November 24, 2021, the Coast Guard published a notice of
proposed rulemaking entitled ``Drawbridge Operation Regulation;
Willamette River, Portland, OR'' in the Federal Register (86 FR 66988).
There we stated why we issued the NPRM, and invited comments on our
proposed regulatory action related to this temporary rule modification.
During the comment period that ended December 27, 2021, we received no
comments for this final rule.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 33 U.S.C.
499. The Morrison Bridge across the Willamette River, mile 12.8, at
Portland, OR, is a double bascule draw bridge. The subject bridge
provides a vertical clearance of 69 feet, at center, and 48 feet on the
sides in the closed-to-navigation position. The vertical clearance is
unlimited when the draw is in the open-to-navigation position. All
clearances are based on the Columbia River Datum 0.0. Marine traffic on
this section of the Willamette River consists of vessels ranging from
small pleasure craft up to large commercial vessels and barges. The
Morrison Bridge operates in accordance with 33 CFR 117.897(c)(3)(iv).
The county will be painting and preserving the Morrison Bridge
including the double bascule span. The modified rule will change bridge
operations from a full span opening to a single leaf, or half span
opening. The purpose of this rule is to ensure safety of vessels and
the navigable waters below the bridge.

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes and the Rule

    The Coast Guard provided a comment period of 30 days due to the
fact the County had also performed an outreach to the waterway
stakeholders before contacting the Coast Guard for this temporary rule
request. As noted above, we received no comments on our NPRM published
November 24, 2021. There are no changes in the regulatory text of this
rule form the proposed rule in the NPRM.
    This rule establishes a temporary change to 33 CFR
117.897(c)(3)(iv) to be in effect from 7 p.m. on April 1, 2022, through
7 p.m. on May 31, 2023. This rule temporarily suspends the current
regulatory cite regarding the Morrison Bridge, and adds a temporary 33
CFR 117.897(c)(3)(vi) which amends the operating schedule of the
Morrison Bridge by requiring a two-hour notice, or four-hour notice
with tug assist, for all drawbridge vessel openings. By operating in
single leaf opening mode the horizontal clearance of the bridge draw
will be reduced by half that of a double leaf opening (dimensions are
described below). The temporary rule is necessary to accommodate
preservation and painting of the Morrison Bridge.
    This bridge provides a vertical clearance approximately 69 feet, at
the center, above Columbia River Datum 0.0 when in the closed-to-
navigation position. One half of the bascule bridge will have a
containment system installed on the non-opening half of the span, which
will reduce the vertical clearance by 5 feet to 64 feet center and 43
feet on the sides. A tug will be available for assists to mariners as
needed when a request is given with a notice of four hours for an
opening. The horizontal clearance with a full opening is 185 feet,
therefore, in single leaf

operations, a temporary rule change will reduce the horizontal
clearance to approximately 90 feet. Vessels able to transit under the
Morrison Bridge without an opening may do so at any time. Marine
vessels are advised to be aware of fall hazards. This section of the
Willamette River has no alternate routes. During the Portland Rose
Festival, both leafs of the double bascule span will be fully
operational. If any mariner submits a full opening request to the
County prior to construction beginning on April 1, 2022, a full opening
can be scheduled. All marine emergency vessels can navigate under the
Morrison Bridge without an opening, and therefore do not need to
contact the Hawthorne Bridge for an emergency opening.
    The County will open the Morrison Bridge's span in single span
mode, half of the double bascule span, to marine vessels with a minimum
of two-hour notice, or a four-hour notice if a tug assist is needed. We
published that the west span will be operational at the beginning of
construction and the east span will be closed to navigation. The dates
to switch operational spans will be determined later and published in
the Local and Broadcast Notice to Mariners. This temporary rule also
allows a containment system under the bridge that reduces the non-
opening half of the bridge's vertical clearance by 5 feet from 69 feet
center to 64 feet, and from 48 feet on the sides to 43 feet.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the ability of the
Morrison Bridge to open on signal after the Hawthorne Bridge, at
Willamette River mile 13.1, has received at least a two-hour notice, or
four-hour notice for tug assist, by telephone at<PHONE_NUMBER> or VHF
channel 13 radio request. The Coast Guard has made this finding based
on the fact that this temporary rule allows any vessel needing a
drawbridge opening to transit through the Morrison Bridge after
providing adequate notice and being provided with tug assistance if
required.

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.

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. This rule has not been designated a ``significant
regulatory action,'' under Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, it has
not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
    This regulatory action determination is based on the ability that
vessels can still safely transit the bridge given advanced notice. In
single leaf operations, the horizontal clearance will be approximately
90 feet. Vessels needing over 90 feet of vertical clearance will be
able to safely transit using available tugs after giving four hours'
notice. Vessels able to transit under the Morrison Bridge without an
opening may do so at any time.

B. 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 received no comments from the Small Business
Administration on this rule. 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
bridge 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 calls for no new collection of information under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal Government

    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.

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
Management Directive 023-01, Rev.1, associated implementing
instructions, and Environmental Planning Policy COMDTINST 5090.1
(series), which guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f). The
Coast Guard has 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 promulgates the operating
regulations or

procedures for drawbridges and is categorically excluded from further
review, under paragraph L49, of Chapter 3, Table 3-1 of the U.S. Coast
Guard Environmental Planning Implementation Procedures.
    Neither a Record of Environmental Consideration nor a Memorandum
for the Record are required for this rule.

List of Subjects in 33 CFR Part 117

    Bridges.

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

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

I. What actions is EPA proposing?
II. What is the background of these actions?
III. What is EPA's analysis of the relevant air quality data?
IV. What are the effects of these actions?
V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

I. What actions is EPA proposing?

    In accordance with section 179(c)(1) of the CAA, EPA is proposing
to determine that the Parkersburg-Marietta, WV-OH PM2.5
nonattainment area and the Wheeling, WV-OH PM2.5
nonattainment area have attained the 1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS
by the applicable attainment date of April 5, 2010. The proposal is
based upon complete, quality-assured, and certified ambient air
monitoring data for the 2007-2009 monitoring period and EPA's
determinations are in accordance with EPA's PM2.5
Implementation Rule of April 25, 2007 (72 FR 20664).

II. What is the background of these actions?

    On July 18, 1997 (62 FR 36852), EPA established a health-based
PM2.5 NAAQS at 15.0 micrograms per cubic meter ([micro]g/
m\3\) based on a 3-year average of annual mean PM2.5
concentrations (hereafter referred to as ``the annual PM2.5
NAAQS'' or ``the annual standard''). At that time, EPA also established
a 24-hour standard of 65 [micro]g/m\3\ (the ``1997 24-hour standard'').
See 40 CFR 50.7. On January 5, 2005 (70 FR 944), EPA published its air
quality designations and classifications for the 1997 PM2.5
NAAQS based upon air quality monitoring data from those monitors for
calendar years 2001-2003. These designations became effective on April
5, 2005. The Parkersburg-Marietta, WV-OH and Wheeling, WV-OH
nonattainment areas were designated nonattainment for the 1997
PM2.5 NAAQS during this designations process. See 40 CFR
81.349 (West Virginia) and 40 CFR 81.336 (Ohio). The Parkersburg-
Marietta, WV-OH nonattainment area consists of Wood County, WV, the
Grant Tax District of Pleasants County, WV, and Washington County, OH.
The Wheeling, WV-OH nonattainment area consists of Marshall County, WV,
Ohio County, WV, and Belmont County, OH.
    On October 17, 2006 (71 FR 61144), EPA retained the 1997 annual
PM2.5 NAAQS at 15 [micro]g/m\3\ based on a 3-year average of
annual mean PM2.5 concentrations, and promulgated a 24-hour
standard of 35 [micro]g/m\3\ based on a 3-year average of the 98th
percentile of 24-hour concentrations (the ``2006 24-hour standard'').
On November 13, 2009, EPA designated the Parkersburg-Marietta and
Wheeling Areas as attainment for the 2006 24-hour standard (74 FR
58688). In that action, EPA also clarified the designations for the
NAAQS promulgated in 1997, stating that the Parkersburg-Marietta and
Wheeling Areas were designated as nonattainment for the annual
standard, but attainment for the 1997 24-hour standard. Today's action,
however, does not address attainment of either the 1997 or the 2006 24-
hour standard.
    In response to legal challenges of the annual standard promulgated
in 2006, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit
(DC Circuit) remanded this standard to EPA for further consideration.
See American Farm Bureau Federation and National Pork Producers
Council, et al. v. EPA, 559 F.3d 512 (DC Cir. 2009). However, given
that the 1997 and 2006 annual standards are essentially identical,
attainment of the 1997 annual standard would also indicate attainment
of the remanded 2006 annual standard.
    EPA previously made clean data determinations related to the 1997
annual PM2.5 NAAQS for each of these Areas pursuant to 40
CFR 51.1004(c). These determinations were made on November 20, 2009 (74
FR 60199) and remain in effect.
    Under CAA section 179(c), EPA is required to make a determination
that a nonattainment area has attained by its attainment date, and
publish that determination in the Federal Register. The determination
of attainment is not equivalent to a redesignation, and the state must
still meet the statutory requirements for redesignation in order for
the Areas to be redesignated to attainment.
    Complete, quality-assured, and certified PM2.5 air
quality monitoring data recorded in the EPA Air Quality System (AQS)
database for 2007 through 2009, show that the Parkersburg-Marietta, WV-
OH and Wheeling, WV-OH nonattainment areas attained the 1997 annual
PM2.5 NAAQS by their applicable attainment date.

III. What is EPA's analysis of the relevant air quality data?

    EPA has reviewed the ambient air monitoring data for
PM2.5, consistent with the requirements contained in 40 CFR
part 50 and recorded in the data in the EPA AQS database for the
Parkersburg-Marietta, WV-OH and Wheeling, WV-OH nonattainment areas for
the monitoring period from 2007 through 2009. On the basis of that
review, EPA proposes to determine that the Areas attained the 1997
annual PM2.5 NAAQS by the April 5, 2010 attainment date.
    Under EPA regulations at 40 CFR 50.7, the annual primary and
secondary PM2.5 standards are met when the annual arithmetic
mean concentrations, as determined in accordance with 40 CFR part 50,
Appendix N, is less than or equal to 15.0 [micro]g/m\3\, at all
relevant monitoring sites. The values calculated in accordance with 40
CFR part 50, Appendix N, are referred to as design values, and these
values are used to determine if an area is attaining the
PM2.5 NAAQS. According to the PM2.5
implementation rule, the attainment date for these Areas is April 5,
2010 and the monitoring data from 2007 through 2009 is used to
determine if the Areas attained by April 5, 2010.
    Table 1 shows the PM2.5 design values for each monitor
in the Parkersburg-Marietta, WV-OH nonattainment area and the Wheeling,
WV-OH nonattainment area, respectively, for the years 2007-2009. All
2007-2009 design values are below 15.0 [micro]g/m\3\, and all monitors
meet the data completeness requirements. Therefore, the Parkersburg-
Marietta, WV-OH and Wheeling, WV-OH nonattainment areas attained the
1997 annual PM2.5 NAAQS by their attainment date.

IV. What are the effects of these actions?

    If EPA's proposed determination that the Parkersburg-Marietta, WV-
OH and Wheeling, WV-OH nonattainment areas have attained the 1997
annual PM2.5 standard by the applicable attainment date
(April 5, 2010) is finalized, EPA will have met its requirement
pursuant to section 179(c) of the CAA to make a determination based on
the Areas' air quality data as of the attainment date that the Areas
attained the standard by that date. The action described above is a
proposed determination regarding the Parkersburg-Marietta, WV-OH, and
Wheeling, WV-OH areas' attainment of the 1997 annual PM2.5
NAAQS.
    Finalizing this proposed action would not constitute a
redesignation of the Areas to attainment of the 1997 annual
PM2.5 NAAQS under section 107(d)(3) of the CAA. Further,
finalizing this proposed action does not involve approving maintenance
plans for the Areas as required under section 175A of the CAA, nor
would it find that the Areas have met all other requirements for
redesignation. Even if EPA finalizes the proposed action, the
designation status of the Parkersburg-Marietta, WV-OH, and Wheeling,
WV-OH areas would remain nonattainment for the 1997 annual
PM2.5 NAAQS until such time as EPA determines that the Areas
meet the CAA requirements for redesignation to attainment and take
action to redesignate the Parkersburg-Marietta, WV-OH, and Wheeling,
WV-OH areas.
    EPA is soliciting comment on the action discussed in this document.
These comments will be considered before EPA takes final action. Please
note that if EPA receives adverse comment on either of the proposed
determinations described above and if that determination may be severed
from the remainder of the final agency action, EPA may adopt as final
these provisions of the final agency action that are not the subject of
an adverse comment.

V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    This action proposes to make attainment determinations based on air
quality data and would not, if finalized, result in the suspension of
certain Federal requirements and would not impose any additional
requirements. For that reason, this proposed action:
     Is not a ``significant regulatory action'' subject to
review by the Office of Management and Budget under Executive Order
12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993);
     Does not impose an information collection burden under the
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.);
     Is certified as not having a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities under the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.);
     Does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4);
     Does not have Federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999);
     Is not an economically significant regulatory action based
on health or safety risks subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997);
     Is not a significant regulatory action subject to
Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001);

     Is not subject to requirements of Section 12(d) of the
National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272
note) because application of those requirements would be inconsistent
with the Clean Air Act; and
     Does not provide EPA with the discretionary authority to
address, as appropriate, disproportionate human health or environmental
effects, using practicable and legally permissible methods, under
Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    In addition, these proposed PM2.5 NAAQS attainment
determinations do not have Tribal implications as specified by
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because the SIP
is not approved to apply in Indian country located in the State, and
EPA notes that it will not impose substantial direct costs on Tribal
governments or preempt Tribal law.

7. Title Emission Reporting Requirements for Ozone SIP Revisions ( or Associated Federal Implementation Plans) Relating to Statewide Budgets for NOx Emissions to Reduce the Regional Transport of Ozone 8. Agency form number( s): 1857.02 9. Keywords: Ozone, NOX Emissions, Environmental Protection, Air Pollution Control 10. Abstract: Statewide ozone season NOx emissions budgets, based on the recommendations of the Ozone Transport Assessment Group ( OTAG), are required for 21 States and the District of Columbia. Starting in 2003, these States are required to electronically report data to EPA to demonstrate progress toward achieving their budgets, which must be met by 2007. States must report data annually for those point, area, and mobile sources for which they adopt control measures to meet their NOx budgets. Every 3 years, starting with the year 2002, as well as 2007, States are required to report a Statewide inventory of all controlled and uncontrolled NOx sources Statewide. To facilitate the emissions reductions, EPA will encourage sources to participate in an emissions trading program with associated reporting requirements. If States fail to submit approvable SIPs establishing the NOx budgets, EPA will promulgate Federal implementation plans ( FIPs) which directly require sources to reduce NOx emissions through an emissions trading program.
