Special Local Regulations and Safety 

Zones; Recurring Events in Northern 

New England 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is amending 

special local regulations and 

establishing permanent safety zones in 

the Coast Guard Northern New England 

Captain of the Port (COTP) Zone for 

annual recurring marine events. When 

these special local regulations or safety 

zones are activated, and thus subject to 

enforcement, this rule restricts vessels 

from portions of water areas during 

annual events in the Northern New 

England COTP Zone. The revised 

special local regulations and safety 

zones reduce administrative overhead, 

expedite public notification of events, 

and ensure the protection of the 

maritime public and event participants 

from the hazards associated with 

firework displays, boat races, and other 

marine events. 

DATES: This rule is effective April 29, 

2011. 

ADDRESSES: Comments and material 

received from the public, as well as 

documents mentioned in this preamble 

as being available in the docket, are part 

of docket USCG–2010–0110 and are

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Regulatory Information 

On Tuesday, January 11, 2011, the 

Coast Guard published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking (NPRM) entitled 

‘‘Special Local Regulations and Safety 

Zones; Recurring Events in Northern 

New England’’ in the Federal Register 

(76 FR 1568). We received no comments 

or requests for a public meeting on the 

proposed rule. 

Basis and Purpose 

Marine events are annually held on a 

recurring basis on the navigable waters 

within the Coast Guard Northern New 

England COTP Zone. These events 

include sailing regattas, powerboat 

races, rowboat races, parades, swim 

events, and fireworks displays. In the 

past, the Coast Guard has established 

special local regulations and regulated 

navigation areas for these events on a 

case by case basis to ensure the 

protection of the maritime public and 

event participants from the hazards 

associated with these marine events. 

Issuing individual regulations annually 

has proved to be administratively 

cumbersome. 

This rule will significantly relieve 

administrative overhead and 

consistently apprise the public in a 

timely manner through permanent 

publication in Title 33 of the Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR). The TABLES 

in this regulation list each recurring 

marine event requiring a regulated area 

as administered by the Coast Guard. 

By establishing permanent regulations 

for these events, the Coast Guard has 

eliminated the need to establish 

temporary rules for events that occur on 

an annual basis. This provided 

opportunity for the public to comment 

while limiting the unnecessary burden 

of continually establishing temporary 

rules every year. Some of the events 

discussed below are duplicated in 33 

CFR 100.114, a citation that no longer 

meets the Coast Guard’s intended 

purposes. While 33 CFR part 100 is 

designed for Regattas and Marine 

Parades, 33 CFR part 165 is for 

Regulated Navigation Areas and Limited 

Access Areas. The Coast Guard has 

identified a number of events in 33 CFR 

part 100 which would be more 

appropriately located in 33 CFR part 

165. This rulemaking amends local 

regulations for events already contained 

in 33 CFR part 100 both to update event 

information as well as to move firework 

displays to part 165, a citation that 

better meets the Coast Guard’s intended 

purpose of ensuring safety during these 

events. 

In addition, the Coast Guard has 

promulgated safety zones or special 

local regulations for all of these 52 areas 

in the past, and has not received public 

comments or concerns regarding the 

impact to waterway traffic from these 

annually recurring events. 

Background 

The Coast Guard in Northern New 

England processes over 180 marine 

event applications on an annual basis. 

Consequently, we created this rule to 

reduce costly administrative overhead 

and to decrease time consumed when 

drafting multiple special local 

regulations and regulated navigation 

areas for these marine events. By having 

permanent regulations for these events 

in Title 33 of the CFR also eliminates 

the need to establish multiple temporary 

rules for events that occur on an annual 

basis, hence greatly reducing 

administrative costs associated with that 

process. 

Another purpose of this rule is to list 

events on a permanent basis in order to 

expedite public notice of all marine 

activity in the Coast Guard Northern 

New England COTP Zone. 

Discussion of Comments and Changes 

The Coast Guard did not receive any 

comments in response to the NPRM 

published in the Federal Register (76 

FR 1568) on Tuesday, January 11, 2011. 

Accordingly, no changes were made to 

the regulatory text in the final rule. 

We have added figure 2–1, paragraph 

(34)(g) of Commandant Instruction 

M16475.1D in the Environment section 

of the regulatory analysis, as this 

paragraph also pertains to the 

Categorical Exclusion determination for 

safety zones. 

Regulatory Analyses 

We developed this rule after 

considering numerous statutes and 

executive orders related to rulemaking. 

Below we summarize our analyses 

based on 13 of these statutes or 

executive orders. 

WReier-Aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with RULES

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 61 / Wednesday, March 30, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 17531 

Regulatory Planning and Review 

This rule is not a significant 

regulatory action under section 3(f) of 

Executive Order 12866, Regulatory 

Planning and Review, and does not 

require an assessment of potential costs 

and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that 

Order. The Office of Management and 

Budget has not reviewed it under that 

Order. 

We expect the economic impact of 

this rule to be so minimal that a full 

Regulatory Evaluation is unnecessary. 

Although this regulation may have some 

impact on the public, the potential 

impact will be minimized for the 

following reasons: vessels will only be 

restricted from safety zones and special 

local regulation areas for a short 

duration of time unless otherwise noted; 

vessels may transit in all portions of the 

affected waterway except for those areas 

covered by the zones; the Coast Guard 

has promulgated safety zones or special 

local regulations in accordance with 33 

CFR parts 100 and 165 for all event 

areas in the past and has not received 

notice of any negative impact caused by 

any of the safety zones or special local 

regulations; and notifications will also 

be made to the local maritime 

community via the Local Notice to 

Mariners and Broadcast Notice to 

Mariners well in advance of the events. 

The effect of this action simply 

establishes the approximate dates on 

which the existing regulations would be 

enforced and consolidates them within 

one regulation. No new or additional 

restrictions will be imposed on vessel 

traffic. 

Small Entities 

Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act 

(5 U.S.C. 601–612), we have considered 

whether this rule would have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities. 

The term ‘‘small entities’’ comprises 

small businesses, not-for-profit 

organizations that are independently 

owned and operated and are not 

dominant in their fields, and 

governmental jurisdictions with 

populations of less than 50,000. 

The Coast Guard certifies under 5 

U.S.C. 605(b) that this 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 might be small 

entities: owners or operators of vessels 

intending to transit, fish, or anchor in 

the areas where safety zones for marine 

related fireworks events and special 

local regulations for regattas are being 

held. For the reasons outlined in the 

Regulatory Planning and Review section 

above, this rule will not have a 

significant impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. 

If you think that your business, 

organization, or governmental 

jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity 

and that this rule will 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 will 

economically affect it. 

Assistance for Small Entities 

Under section 213(a) of the Small 

Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–121), 

in the NPRM we offered to assist small 

entities in understanding the rule so 

that they could better evaluate its effects 

on them and participate in the 

rulemaking process. 

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. 

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). 

Federalism 

A rule has implications for federalism 

under Executive Order 13132, 

Federalism, if it has a substantial direct 

effect on State or local governments and 

would either preempt State law or 

impose a substantial direct cost of 

compliance on them. We have analyzed 

this rule under that Order and have 

determined that it does not have 

implications for federalism. 

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531–1538) requires 

Federal agencies to assess the effects of 

their discretionary regulatory actions. In 

particular, the Act addresses actions 

that may result in the expenditure by a 

State, local, or tribal government, in the 

aggregate, or by the private sector of 

$100,000,000 (adjusted for inflation) or 

more in any one year. Though this rule 

will not result in such an expenditure, 

we do discuss the effects of this rule 

elsewhere in this preamble. 

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. 

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. 

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. 

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. 

Energy Effects 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Executive Order 13211, Actions 

Concerning Regulations That 

Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use. We have 

determined that it is not a ‘‘significant 

energy action’’ under that order because 

it is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ 

under Executive Order 12866 and is not 

likely to have a significant adverse effect 

on the supply, distribution, or use of 

energy. The Administrator of the Office 

of Information and Regulatory Affairs 

has not designated it as a significant 

energy action. Therefore, it does not 

require a Statement of Energy Effects 

under Executive Order 13211. 

Technical Standards 

The National Technology Transfer 

and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 

U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use 

voluntary consensus standards in their 

regulatory activities unless the agency 

provides Congress, through the Office of 

WReier-Aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with RULES

17532 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 61 / Wednesday, March 30, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 

Management and Budget, with an 

explanation of why using these 

standards would be inconsistent with 

applicable law or otherwise impractical. 

Voluntary consensus standards are 

technical standards (e.g., specifications 

of materials, performance, design, or 

operation; test methods; sampling 

procedures; and related management 

systems practices) that are developed or 

adopted by voluntary consensus 

standards bodies. 

This rule does not use technical 

standards. Therefore, we did not 

consider the use of voluntary consensus 

standards. 

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 concluded 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 is categorically 

excluded, under figure 2–1, paragraphs 

(34)(g) and (34)(h) of the Instruction 

since it involves establishment of safety 

zones for marine related fireworks 

events and special local regulations for 

regattas, respectively. An environmental 

analysis checklist and a categorical 

exclusion determination are available in 

the docket where indicated under 

ADDRESSES.
