SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of September 25,
2019, FDA published a proposed rule that would, if finalized, establish
requirements related to the content and format of premarket tobacco
product applications, application review procedures, and recordkeeping.
Interested persons were originally given until November 25, 2019, to
comment on the proposed rule.
    Following publication of the proposed rule in the Federal Register
of September 25, 2019, FDA received a request to allow interested
persons additional time to comment. The requester asserted that the
time period of 60 days was insufficient to allow potential respondents
to thoroughly evaluate and address pertinent issues. FDA has considered
the request and is reopening the comment period for the proposed rule
for 20 days. The Agency believes that a 20-day reopening of the comment
period allows adequate time for interested persons to submit comments
without significantly delaying rulemaking on these important issues.

    Dated: November 21, 2019.
Lowell J. Schiller,
Principal Associate Commissioner for Policy.

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration

[Docket No. FMCSA-2018-0135]

Qualification of Drivers; Exemption Applications; Hearing

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of final disposition.

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

SUMMARY: FMCSA announces its decision to exempt 30 individuals from the
hearing requirement in the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations
(FMCSRs) to operate a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) in interstate
commerce. The exemptions enable these hard of hearing and deaf
individuals to operate CMVs in interstate commerce.

DATES: The exemptions were applicable on October 13, 2018. The
exemptions expire on October 13, 2020.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Christine A. Hydock, Chief,
Medical Programs Division,<PHONE_NUMBER>, [email protected], FMCSA,
Department of Transportation, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Room W64-224,
Washington, DC 20590-0001. Office hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.,
ET, Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. If you have

B. Privacy Act

    In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553(c), DOT solicits comments from the
public to better inform its rulemaking process. DOT posts these
comments, without edit, including any personal information the
commenter provides, to www.regulations.gov, as described in the system
of records notice (DOT/ALL-14 FDMS), which can be reviewed at
www.dot.gov/privacy.

II. Background

    On September 10, 2018, FMCSA published a notice announcing receipt
of applications from 30 individuals requesting an exemption from the
hearing requirement in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) to operate a CMV in
interstate commerce and requested comments from the public (83 FR
45745). The public comment period ended on October 10, 2018, and two
comments were received.
    FMCSA has evaluated the eligibility of these applicants and
determined that granting exemptions to these individuals would achieve
a level of safety equivalent to or greater than the level that would be
achieved by complying with the current regulation 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11).
    The physical qualification standard for drivers regarding hearing
found in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) states that a person is physically
qualified to driver a CMV if that person first perceives a forced
whispered voice in the better ear at not less than 5 feet with or
without the use of a hearing aid or, if tested by use of an audiometric
device, does not have an average hearing loss in the better ear greater
than 40 decibels at 500 Hz, 1,000 Hz, and 2,000 Hz with or without a
hearing aid when the audiometric device is calibrated to American
National Standard (formerly ASA Standard) Z24.5-1951.
    49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) was adopted in 1970, with a revision in 1971
to allow drivers to be qualified under this standard while wearing a
hearing aid, 35 FR 6458, 6463 (April 22, 1970) and 36 FR 12857 (July 3,
1971).

III. Discussion of Comments

    FMCSA received two comments in this proceeding. Vicky Johnson, of
Minnesota Department of Safety, wrote there are no objections to Thomas
D. Sneer receiving a hearing exemption. An anonymous commenter
indicated that Donald Reamsnyder of Florida, is seeking the exemption
for a B CDL with Passenger/School Bus endorsement. The Agency's Federal
Hearing Exemption stipulates, that the driver granted a hearing
exemption is prohibited from operating a motorcoach or bus with
passengers in interstate commerce.

IV. Basis for Exemption Determination

    Under 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and 31315(b), FMCSA may grant an exemption
for up to five years from the hearing standard in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11)
if the exemption is likely to achieve an equivalent or greater level of
safety than would be achieved without the exemption. The exemption
allows the applicants to operate CMVs in interstate commerce. FMCSA
grants exemptions from the FMCSRs for a two-year period to align with
the maximum duration of a driver's medical certification.
    The Agency's decision regarding these exemption applications is
based on current medical information and literature, and the 2008
Evidence Report, ``Executive Summary on Hearing, Vestibular Function
and Commercial Motor Driving Safety.'' The evidence report reached two
conclusions regarding the matter of hearing loss and CMV driver safety:
(1) No studies that examined the relationship between hearing loss and
crash risk exclusively among CMV drivers were identified; and (2)
evidence from studies of the private driver's

license holder population does not support the contention that
individuals with hearing impairment are at an increased risk for a
crash. In addition, the Agency reviewed each applicant's driving record
found in the Commercial Driver's License Information System (CDLIS),
for commercial driver's license (CDL) holders, and inspections recorded
in the Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS). For non-CDL
holders, the Agency reviewed the driving records from the State
Driver's Licensing Agency (SDLA). Each applicant's record demonstrated
a safe driving history. Based on an individual assessment of each
applicant that focused on whether an equal or greater level of safety
is likely to be achieved by permitting each of these drivers to drive
in interstate commerce as opposed to restricting him or her to driving
in intrastate commerce, the Agency believes the drivers granted this
exemption have demonstrated that they do not pose a risk to public
safety.
    Consequently, FMCSA finds that in each case exempting these
applicants from the hearing standard in 49 CFR 391.41(b)(11) is likely
to achieve a level of safety equal to that existing without the
exemption.

V. Conditions and Requirements

    The terms and conditions of the exemption are provided to the
applicants in the exemption document and includes the following: (1)
Each driver must report any crashes or accidents as defined in 49 CFR
390.5; (2) each driver must report all citations and convictions for
disqualifying offenses under 49 CFR part 383 and 49 CFR 391 to FMCSA;
and (3) each driver is prohibited from operating a motorcoach or bus
with passengers in interstate commerce. The driver must also have a
copy of the exemption when driving, for presentation to a duly
authorized Federal, State, or local enforcement official. In addition,
the exemption does not exempt the individual from meeting the
applicable CDL testing requirements.

VI. Preemption

    During the period the exemption is in effect, no State shall
enforce any law or regulation that conflicts with this exemption with
respect to a person operating under the exemption.

VII. Conclusion

    Based upon its evaluation of the 30 exemption applications, FMCSA
exempts the following drivers from the hearing standard, 49 CFR
391.41(b)(11), subject to the requirements cited above:

David Alagna, (IL)
Matthew H. Albrecht, (PA)
Raymond Amundson, (OK)
Michael Arwood, (TN)
Jonathan D. Ball, (PA)
Gerald Bennett, (NH)
Dominick Booker, (PA)

Troy Rolland, (TX)
Thomas D. Sneer, (MN)
Carlos Talamantes, (TX)

Paul Whetstone, (AZ)
Jason Wynne, (TX)

    In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 31315, each exemption will be valid
for two years from the effective date unless revoked earlier by FMCSA.
The exemption will be revoked if the following occurs: (1) The person
fails to comply with the terms and conditions of the exemption; (2) the
exemption has resulted in a lower level of safety than was maintained
prior to being granted; or (3) continuation of the exemption would not
be consistent with the goals and objectives of 49 U.S.C. 31136 and
31315.

Proposed Amendment of Class E Airspace; Boswell Airport, CA

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of
Transportation (DOT).

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM).

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

SUMMARY: This action proposes to modify the Class E airspace extending
upward from 700 feet above the surface at Boswell Airport, CA. The
radius is reduced, as there are no circling maneuvers authorized at the
airport. This action also proposes the addition of an extension to the
north, and a modification to the south extension to adequately contain
arriving and departing aircraft. Additionally, this action proposes
several administrative changes to update the airport's legal
description. These actions will support the safety and management of
instrument flight rule (IFR) operations at the airport.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before January 30, 2023.

ADDRESSES: Send comments on this proposal to the U.S. DOT, Docket

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority for This Rulemaking

    The FAA's authority to issue rules regarding aviation safety is
found in Title 49 of the United States Code (U.S.C.). 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. This rulemaking is promulgated under the authority
described in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that
section, the FAA is charged with prescribing regulations to assign the
use of airspace necessary to ensure the safety of aircraft and the
efficient use of airspace. This regulation is within the scope of that
authority, as it would modify Class E airspace at Boswell Airport, CA,
to support IFR operations at the airport.

Comments Invited

    Interested parties are invited to participate in this proposed
rulemaking by submitting such written data, views, or arguments, as
they may desire. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the
views and suggestions presented are particularly helpful in developing
reasoned regulatory decisions on the proposal. Comments are
specifically invited on the overall regulatory, aeronautical, economic,
environmental, and energy-related aspects of the proposal.
Communications should identify both docket numbers and be submitted in
triplicate to the address listed above. Persons wishing the FAA to
acknowledge receipt of their comments on this notice must submit with
those comments a self-addressed, stamped postcard on which the
following statement is made: ``Comments to Docket No. FAA-2022-1454;
Airspace Docket No. 21-AWP-56''. The postcard will be date/time stamped
and returned to the commenter.
    All communications received before the specified closing date for
comments will be considered before taking action on the proposed rule.
The proposal contained in this notice may be changed in light of the
comments received. A report summarizing each substantive public contact
with FAA personnel concerned with this rulemaking will be filed in the
docket.

Availability of NPRMs

    An electronic copy of this document may be downloaded through the
internet at www.regulations.gov. Recently published rulemaking
documents can also be accessed through the FAA's web page at
www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/airspace_amendments.
    You may review the public docket containing the proposal, any
comments received, and any final disposition in person in the Dockets
Office (see the ADDRESSES section for the address and phone number)
between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except federal
holidays. An informal docket may also be examined during normal
business hours at the Northwest Mountain Regional Office of the Federal
Aviation Administration, Air Traffic Organization, Western Service
Center, Operations Support Group, 2200 S 216th Street, Des Moines, WA
98198.

Availability and Summary of Documents for Incorporation by Reference

    This document proposes to amend FAA Order JO 7400.11G, dated August
19, 2022, and effective September 15, 2022. FAA Order JO 7400.11G is
publicly available as listed in the ADDRESSES section of this document.
FAA Order JO 7400.11G lists Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air
traffic service routes, and reporting points.

The Proposal

    The FAA is proposing an amendment to 14 CFR part 71 by modifying
the Class E airspace extending upward from 700 feet above the surface
at Boswell Airport, CA. The 6.6-mile radius of the airport is
excessive, and should be reduced to 2.4-mile radius, as there are no
authorized circling maneuvers at the airport. An extension should be
added to the north of the airport to contain departures until reaching
1,200 feet above the surface. The extension to the south of the airport
should be modified to better contain departures until reaching 1,200
feet above the surface and arrivals below 1,500 feet above the surface.
    Additionally, the FAA proposes administrative modifications to the
airport's legal description. The airport's city is incorrect in the
existing Class E5 description. It should read: ``Corcoran, CA''. The
airport name in the text header is incorrect. It should read: ``Boswell
Airport, CA''. The navigational aid used in the existing Class E5 legal
description should be removed as it has been decommissioned. The
geographic coordinates for the airport should be updated to match the
FAA's database.
    The Class E5 airspace designation is published in paragraph 6005 of
FAA Order JO 7400.11G, dated August 19, 2022, and effective September
19, 2022, which is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 71.1. The Class
E airspace

designation listed in this document will be published subsequently in
FAA Order JO 7400.11, which is published yearly and becomes effective
on September 15.
    FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace Designations and Reporting Points is
published yearly and effective on September 15.

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

    The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an
established body of technical regulations for which frequent and
routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is
non-controversial, and unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It therefore: (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) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation
as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter
that will only affect air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when promulgated, would not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Environmental Review

    This proposal will be subject to an environmental analysis in
accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, Environmental Impacts: Policies and
Procedures, prior to any FAA final regulatory action.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. CP17-178-000]

Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review of the Alaska Gasline
Development Corporation Alaska LNG Project

    On April 17, 2017, the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation
(AGDC) filed an application in Docket No. CP17-178-000 requesting
authorization pursuant to section 3(a) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) to
construct and operate liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facilities.
The proposed project is known as the Alaska LNG Project (Project) and
would commercialize natural gas resources on the North Slope during the
economic life of the Prudhoe Bay Unit field and provide at least five
interconnection points along the pipeline to allow for in-state gas
deliveries.
    On May 1, 2017, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) issued its Notice of Application for the Project. Among
other things, that notice alerted other agencies issuing federal
authorizations of the requirement to complete all necessary reviews and
to reach a final decision on the request for a federal authorization
within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission staff's final
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Alaska LNG Project. This
instant notice identifies the FERC staff's planned schedule for
completion of the final EIS for the Project, which is based on an
issuance of the draft EIS in March 2019.

Schedule for Environmental Review

Issuance of Notice of Availability of the final EIS--December 9, 2019
90-Day Federal Authorization Decision Deadline--March 8, 2020

    If a schedule change becomes necessary for the final EIS, an
additional notice will be provided so that the relevant agencies are
kept informed of the Project's progress.

Project Description

    AGDC is seeking authorization to construct, own, and operate a new
gas treatment plant near Prudhoe Bay; a 1.0-mile-long, 60-inch-diameter
Prudhoe Bay Unit Gas Transmission Line; a 62.5-mile-long, 32-inch-
diameter Point Thomson Unit Gas Transmission Line; a 806.6-mile-long,
42-inch-diameter natural gas pipeline from the gas treatment plant to
the LNG terminal in Nikiski; an LNG terminal with a 20 million ton per
annum liquefaction capacity; associated aboveground facilities; and
non-jurisdictional facilities in Alaska. The Project would have an
annual average inlet design capacity of up to 3.7 billion standard
cubic feet per day and a 3.9 billion standard cubic feet per day peak
capacity of natural gas.

Background

    On September 12, 2014, the Commission staff granted AGDC's request
to use the FERC's Pre-filing environmental review process and assigned
the Alaska LNG Project Docket No. PF14-21-000. On March 4, 2015, the
Commission issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an Environmental Impact
Statement for the Planned Alaska LNG Project and Request for Comments
on Environmental Issues (NOI) during the pre-filing review. In October
2015, FERC issued two supplemental Notices regarding public scoping
meetings for the Alaska LNG Project. On July 27, 2016, FERC also issued
a Supplemental Notice Requesting Comments on the Denali National Park
and Preserve Alternative for the Planned Alaska LNG Project.
    The NOI and supplemental notices were sent to federal, state, and
local government agencies; elected officials; affected landowners;
environmental and public interest groups; Native American tribes and
regional organizations; commentors and other interested parties; and
local libraries and newspapers. Major issues raised during scoping
include impacts on traditional Alaska Native culture, particularly
subsistence; health impacts on local communities; impacts on wetlands,
including through placement of permanent gravel fill; visual impacts
from key observation points, including within the Denali National Park
and Preserve; impacts of dredging and identification of disposal
methods; wildlife impacts, specifically on the caribou population and
its migration routes, the endangered Cook Inlet beluga whale
population, and Cook Inlet fish habitat; and transportation impacts.
    The U.S. Department of Transportation, Pipeline and Hazardous
Material Safety Administration; U.S. Environmental Protection Agency;
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; U.S. Coast Guard; Bureau of Land
Management; U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; National Marine Fisheries
Service; National Park Service; and U.S. Department of Energy are
cooperating agencies in the preparation of the EIS.

Additional Information

    In order to receive notification of the issuance of the EIS and to
keep track of all formal issuances and submittals in specific dockets,

positioned near the St. Thomas Harbor channel from which fireworks will
be lit. The safety zone is necessary to ensure the safety of vessels,
spectators, and the public on the navigable waters of the United States
during the event. Persons and vessels are prohibited from entering,
transiting through, anchoring in, or remaining within the safety zone
unless authorized by the Captain of the Port San Juan.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking

A. Regulatory History and Information

    The Coast Guard published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) on
March 14, 2013, in the Federal Register (78 FR 16211). The Coast Guard
received no public comments in the docket and no requests for public
meetings.
    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. The Coast Guard did not receive
information from the event sponsor early enough to both publish a NPRM
and allow 30 days after publication before making this rule effective.
The Coast Guard chose to notify the public and seek comment on this
rule by publishing a NPRM. As such, it is impracticable to delay the
effective date by 30 days. This final rule is necessary to protect the
public and commercial traffic during the firework display, and
therefore, must be effective by the start of the event on April 24,
2013.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for the rule is the Coast Guard's authority to
establish regulated navigation areas and other limited access areas: 33
U.S.C. 1231; 46 U.S.C. Chapter 701, 3306, 3703; 50 U.S.C. 191, 195; 33
CFR 1.05-1, 6.04-1, 6.04-6, 160.5; Pub. L. 107-295, 116 Stat. 2064;
Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
    On April 24, 2013, Fireworks by Grucci and Left Lane Productions
are sponsoring the Corp. Event Finale UHC, a firework display event.
The event will be held on the waters of St. Thomas Harbor, St. Thomas,
U. S. Virgin Islands. The fireworks will be launched from a barge
stationed near the St. Thomas Harbor channel.
    The purpose of the rule is to protect the public from the hazards
associated with the launching of fireworks over navigable waters of the
United States.

C. Discussion of Comments, Changes and the Final Rule

    The Coast Guard received no comments in the docket for this
rulemaking. We made no changes to the regulation as originally
proposed.
    This safety zone encompasses waters in St. Thomas Harbor. The zone
is effective from 8 p.m. until 10 p.m. on April 24, 2013. Persons and
vessels are prohibited from entering, transiting through, anchoring in,
or remaining within the safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of
the Port.
    Persons and vessels may request authorization to enter, transit
through, anchor in, or remain within the safety zone by contacting the
Captain of the Port San Juan or a designated representative. If
authorization to enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within
the safety zone is granted, all persons and vessels receiving such
authorization must comply with the instructions of the Captain of the
Port San Juan or a designated representative.
    The Coast Guard will provide notice of the safety zone by Local
Notice to Mariners, Broadcast Notice to Mariners, and on-scene
designated representatives.

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 and 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.
    The economic impact of this rule is not significant for the
following reasons: (1) The safety zone will be enforced for

only two hours; (2) persons and vessels may operate in the surrounding
area during the enforcement period; (3) persons and vessels may still
enter, transit through, anchor in, or remain within the safety zone
during the enforcement period if authorized by the Captain of the Port
San Juan or a designated representative; and (4) the Coast Guard will
provide advance notification of the safety zone to the local maritime
community by 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 received zero 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.
    This rule may affect the following entities, some of which may be
small entities: the owners or operators of vessels intending to enter,
transit through, anchor in, or remain within that portion of St. Thomas
Harbor encompassed within the safety zone from 8 p.m. until 10 p.m. on
April 24, 2013. For the reasons discussed in the Regulatory Planning
and Review section above, this rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.

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
INTFORMATION 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 a safety zone around a barge during a
fireworks display, that will be enforced for two hours. This rule is
categorically excluded under paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2-1 of the
Commandant Instruction. An environmental analysis checklist supporting
this determination and a Categorical Exclusion Determination are
available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.
