33 CFR Parts 100 and 165

[Docket Number USCG-2014-1011]
RIN 1625-AA00, AA08

Special Local Regulations and Safety Zones; Recurring Marine
Events and Fireworks Displays Within the Fifth Coast Guard District

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to amend the regulations established
for recurring marine events and fireworks displays that take place
within the Fifth Coast Guard District area of responsibility. Under
that rule, the list

of recurring marine events requiring special local regulations or
safety zones is updated with revisions, additional events, and removal
of events that no longer take place in the Fifth Coast Guard District.
When these regulations are enforced, certain restrictions are placed on
marine traffic in specified areas. This rulemaking project promotes
efficiency by eliminating the need to produce a separate rule for each
individual recurring event, and serves to provide notice of the known
recurring events requiring a special local regulation or safety zone
throughout the year.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast
Guard on or before March 16, 2015.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number using
any one of the following methods:
    (1) Federal eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov.

FR 42197).

C. Basis and Purpose

    This rulemaking is authorized by 33 U.S.C. 1231, 1233; 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; Public Law 107-295, 116 Stat. 2064; and DHS Delegation
No. 0170.1. It updates the list of permanent special local regulations
at 33 CFR 100.501 and safety zones at 33 CFR 165.506, established for
recurring marine events and fireworks displays at various locations
within the Fifth Coast Guard District area of responsibility (AOR). The
Fifth Coast Guard District AOR is defined in 33 CFR 3.25.
    Publishing these regulatory updates in a single rulemaking promotes
efficiency and provides the public with notice through publication in
the Federal Register of the upcoming recurring marine events and
fireworks displays and their accompanying regulations, special local
regulations, and safety zones.

D. Discussion of Proposed Rule

Special Local Regulations

    This rule would add 2 new special local regulations for marine
events, remove 1 regulation and revise 10 previously established
regulations for marine events listed in the Table to Sec.  100.501.
Other than changes to the dates and locations of certain events, the
other provisions in 33 CFR 100.501 remain unchanged.
    The Coast Guard proposes to revise regulations at 33 CFR 100.501 by
adding 2 new special local regulations. The proposed special local
regulations are listed in TABLE 1, including reference

by section as printed in the TABLE to Sec.  100.501.

                                 Table 1

                                                    harbor, Bivalve, MD.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    One previously published special local regulation for marine event
would be removed from 33 CFR 100.501, i.e. ``Ragin on the River'' power
boat race that took place on the Susquehanna River, near Port Deposit,
MD.
    This rule would revise 10 preexisting special local regulations
that involves change to marine event date(s) and/or coordinates. These
events are listed in TABLE 2, with reference by section as printed in
the TABLE to Sec.  100.501.

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

    Based on the nature of marine events, large number of participants
and spectators, and event locations, the Coast Guard has determined
that the events listed in this rule could pose a risk to participants
or waterway users if normal vessel traffic were to interfere with the
event. Possible hazards include risks of participant injury or death
resulting from near or actual contact with non-participant vessels
traversing through the regulated areas. In order to protect the safety
of all waterway users including event participants and spectators, this
rule establishes special local regulations for the time and location of
each marine event.
    This rule prevents vessels from entering, transiting, mooring or
anchoring within areas specifically designated as regulated areas
during the periods of enforcement unless authorized by the Captain of
the Port (COTP), or designated Coast Guard Patrol Commander. The
designated ``Patrol Commander'' includes Coast Guard commissioned,
warrant, or petty officer who has been designated by the COTP to act on
their behalf. On-scene patrol commander may be augmented by local,
State or Federal officials authorized to act in support of the Coast
Guard.
Safety Zones
    This rule would add 6 new safety zones, remove 1 safety zone and
revise 11 previously established safety zones listed in the Table to
Sec.  165.506. Other than changes to the dates and locations of certain
safety zones, the other provisions in 33 CFR 165.506 remain unchanged.
    The Coast Guard proposes to revise the regulations at 33 CFR
165.506 by adding 6 new safety zone locations to the permanent
regulations listed in this section. The new safety zones are listed in
TABLE 3, including reference by section as printed in the Table to
Sec.  165.506.

                                 Table 3

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

    One safety zone would be removed from 33 CFR 165.506, specifically,
the fireworks display that took place over the Potomac River, near
Newburg, MD.
    The rule would revise 11 preexisting safety zones that involves
change to event date(s) and coordinates. These

revised safety zones are shown in Table 4, with reference by section as
printed in the Table to Sec.  165.506.

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

    Each year, organizations in the Fifth Coast Guard District sponsor
fireworks displays in the same general location and time period. Each
event uses a barge or an on-shore site near the shoreline as the
fireworks launch platform. A safety zone is used to control vessel
movement within a specified distance surrounding the launch platforms
to ensure the safety of persons and property. Coast Guard personnel on
scene may allow boaters within the safety zone if conditions permit.
    The enforcement period for these safety zones is from 5:30 p.m. to
1 a.m. local time. However, vessels may enter, remain in, or transit
through these safety zones during this time frame if authorized by the
COTP or designated Coast Guard patrol commander on scene, as provided
for in 33 CFR 165.23. This rule provides for the safety of life on
navigable waters during the events.

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.
    We expect the economic impact of this rule to be so minimal that a
full Regulatory Evaluation is unnecessary. This finding is based on the
short amount of time that vessels will be restricted from regulated
areas, and the small size of these areas that are usually positioned
away from high vessel traffic zones. Generally vessels would not be
precluded from getting underway, or mooring at any piers or marinas
currently located in the vicinity of the regulated areas. Advance
notifications would also be made to the local maritime community by
issuance of Local Notice to Mariners, Broadcast Notice to Mariners,
Marine information and facsimile broadcasts so mariners can adjust
their plans accordingly. Notifications to the public for most events
will typically be made by local newspapers, radio and TV stations. The
Coast Guard anticipates that these special local regulated areas and
safety zones will only be enforced one to three times per year.

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 rule will affect the
following entities some of which may be small entities: The owners and
operators of vessels intending to transit or anchor in these regulated
areas during the times the zones are enforced.
    These special local regulated areas and safety zones will not have
a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
for the following reasons: The Coast Guard will ensure that small
entities are able to operate in the areas where events are occurring to
the extent possible while ensuring the safety of event participants and
spectators. The enforcement period will be short in duration and, in
many of the areas, vessels can transit safely around the regulated
area. Generally, blanket permission to enter, remain in, or transit
through these regulated areas will be given, except during the period
that the Coast Guard patrol vessel is present. Before the enforcement
period, we will issue maritime advisories widely.
    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 rule 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 rule involves implementation of regulations within 33 CFR part
100 that apply to organized marine events on the navigable waters of
the United States. Some marine events by their nature may introduce
potential for adverse impact on the safety or other interest of
waterway users or waterfront infrastructure within or close proximity
to the event area. The category of water activities includes but is not
limited to sail boat regattas, boat parades, power boat racing,
swimming events, crew racing, and sail board racing. This section of
the 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 not required for this section of the rule.
    This rule involves implementation of regulations at 33 CFR part 165
that establish safety zones on navigable waters of the United States
for fireworks events. These safety zones are enforced for the duration
of fireworks display events. The fireworks are generally launched from
or immediately adjacent to navigable waters of the United States. The
category of activities includes fireworks launched from barges or at
the shoreline that generally rely on the use of navigable waters as a
safety buffer. Fireworks displays may introduce potential hazards such
as accidental discharge of fireworks, dangerous projectiles, and
falling hot embers or other debris. This section of the rule is
categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 34(g) 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 rule.
