33 CFR Part 117 

[Docket No. USCG–2009–0537] 

Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Red 

River Waterway, Torras, LA 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of temporary deviation 

from regulations. 

SUMMARY: The Commander, Eighth 

Coast Guard District, has issued a 

temporary deviation from the regulation 

governing the operation of the LA 15 

Highway Drawbridge across the Red 

River Waterway, mile 1.0, near Torras, 

Louisiana. The deviation is necessary to 

allow time for conducting needed 

maintenance to the bridge. This 

deviation allows the bridge to remain in 

the closed-to-navigation position for a 

two week period.

DATES: This deviation is effective from 

7 a.m. on October 19, 2009, to 5 p.m. on 

October 30, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Documents mentioned in 

this preamble as being available in the

Washington, DC 20590, between 9 a.m. 

and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, 

except Federal holidays, 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, CONTACT: If 

you have questions on this rule, call or 

e-mail Roger K. Wiebusch, Bridge 

Administrator, Coast Guard; (314) 269– 

2378, Roger.K.Wiebusch@uscg.mil. If

docket, call Renee V. Wright, Program 

Manager, Docket Operations, telephone

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Louisiana Department of Transportation 

and Development requested a temporary 

deviation for the LA 15 Highway 

Drawbridge, across the Red River 

Waterway, Mile 1.0, near Torras, 

Louisiana, to remain in the closed-tonavigation position for a two-week 

period to facilitate critical maintenance. 

The LA 15 Highway Drawbridge 

currently operates in accordance with 

33 CFR 117.5, which states the general 

requirement that drawbridges shall open 

promptly and fully for the passage of 

vessels when a request to open is given 

in accordance with the subpart. In order 

to facilitate the needed bridge work, the 

drawbridge must be kept in the closedto-navigation position. This deviation 

allows the bridge to remain in the 

closed-to-navigation position and is 

effective from 7 a.m., October 19, 2009, 

to 5 p.m., October 30, 2009. 

Navigation on the waterway consists 

primarily of commercial tows and 

recreational watercraft. Access from the 

Lower Mississippi River to the 

Atchafalaya River, Red River Waterway, 

and the Ouachita-Black Waterway is 

reached by passing under the subject 

bridge. Navigation will not be 

significantly impacted due to the 

scheduled closure of the Lower Old 

River Lock, at the same river mile as the 

subject bridge, for approximately 30 

days commencing on or about October 

15, 2009. The scheduled lock closure 

will preclude any requests for a bridge 

drawspan opening. 

The LA 15 Highway Drawbridge 

navigation span has a vertical clearance 

of 74.0 feet above zero gauge at the 

bridge in the closed-to-navigation 

position. Performing maintenance on 

the bridge, when the number of vessels 

likely to be impacted is minimal, is 

preferred to bridge closure requirements 

during other times when the lock is 

operational. This temporary change to 

the drawbridge’s operation has been 

coordinated with the commercial 

waterway operators and the Army Corps 

of Engineers. 

To get to Baton Rouge, Louisiana by 

an alternate route from the Red River 

Waterway, users may transit down the 

Atchafalaya River and up the Port Allen 

Route, adding approximately two days 

to the transit. For vessels going further 

north or south of Baton Rouge, 

additional time would be spent on the 

transit. 

This temporary deviation has been 

coordinated with waterway users. No 

objections were received. 

Dated: August 7, 2009.

Bridge Administrator, Eighth Coast Guard 

District (dwb).

RIN 1625–AA11 

Safety Zone and Regulated Navigation 

Area, Chicago Sanitary and Ship 

Canal, Romeoville, IL 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Temporary final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is 

establishing a safety zone and regulated 

navigation area on the Chicago Sanitary 

and Ship Canal near Romeoville, IL.

waters located adjacent to and over the 

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE) 

electrical dispersal fish barrier system. 

DATES: This temporary final rule is 

effective from 8 a.m. on August 17, 

2009, until 5 p.m. on August 25, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Documents indicated in this 

preamble as being available in the 

docket are part of docket USCG–2009– 

0767 and are available online by going 

to http://www.regulations.gov, inserting

between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday

final rule, call CDR Tim Cummins,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Regulatory Information 

The Coast Guard is issuing this 

temporary final rule without prior 

notice and opportunity to comment 

pursuant to authority under section 4(a) 

of the Administrative Procedure Act 

(APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision 

authorizes an agency to issue a rule 

without prior notice and opportunity to 

comment when the agency for good 

cause finds that those procedures are 

‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary 

to the public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C. 

553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that 

good cause exists for not publishing a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

with respect to this rule because the 

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) 

made the decision, without time for a 

proper notice period, to permanently 

increase the voltage of the fish barrier to 

two-volts per inch in response to data 

which indicates that Asian carp are 

closer to the Great Lakes waterway 

system than originally thought. The 

electric current in the water created by 

the electrical dispersal barriers coupled 

with the uncertainty of the effects of the 

increased voltage poses a safety risk to 

commercial vessels and recreational 

boaters who transit the area. Therefore, 

it would be against the public interest 

to delay the issuing of this rule. 

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 because of the safety risk to 

commercial vessels and recreational 

boaters who transit the area. The 

following discussion and the 

Background and Purpose section below 

provide additional support of the Coast 

Guard’s determination that good cause 

exists for not publishing a NPRM and
