needed to protect the public from the 

hazards associated with the Guyasuta 

Days Festival fireworks display. Entry 

into, movement within, and departure 

from this temporary safety zone, while 

it is activated and enforced, is 

prohibited, unless authorized by the 

Captain of the Port or a designated 

representative.

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. This temporary 

safety zone will be included in a 

separate ongoing and upcoming 

rulemaking project providing notice and 

comment to update the list of annually 

recurring events and safety zones in the 

CFR. Publishing an individual NPRM 

would be impracticable because 

immediate action is needed to protect 

the public from the possible hazards 

associated with the Guyasuta Days 

Festival fireworks display that will 

occur in the city of Pittsburgh, PA on 

August 6, 2011 (rain date August 7, 

2011). 

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. This temporary safety zone 

will be included in a separate ongoing 

and upcoming rulemaking project 

providing notice and comment to 

update the list of annually recurring 

events and safety zones in the CFR. 

Publishing an individual NPRM and 

providing a full 30 day notice and 

delaying the effective date would be 

impracticable based on the short notice 

received for the event and the short 

period that the safety zone will be in 

place. Immediate action is needed to 

provide safety and protection during the 

Guyasuta Days Festival fireworks 

display that will occur in the city of 

Pittsburgh, PA on August 6, 2011 (rain 

date August 7, 2011). 

Basis and Purpose 

The Coast Guard is establishing a 

temporary safety zone on the Allegheny 

River from mile marker 5.7 to mile 

marker 5.9 (the parking area on either 

side of the 13th Street boat ramp), 

extending 300 feet from the right 

descending bank. The temporary safety 

zone is needed to protect the public 

from the hazards associated with the 

Guyasuta Days Festival fireworks 

display. 

Discussion of Rule 

The Coast Guard is establishing a 

temporary safety zone on the Allegheny 

River from mile marker 5.7 to mile 

marker 5.9 (the parking area on either 

side of the 13th Street boat ramp), 

extending 300 feet from the right 

descending bank. Vessels shall not enter 

into, depart from, or move within this 

safety zone without permission from the 

Captain of the Port Pittsburgh or his 

authorized representative. Persons or 

vessels requiring entry into or passage 

through a safety zone must request 

permission from the Captain of the Port 

Pittsburgh, or a designated 

representative. They may be contacted 

on VHF–FM Channel 13 or 16, or 

through Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley 

at 1–800–253–7465. This rule will be 

enforced from 9:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. on 

August 6, 2011, with a rain date of 

August 7, 2011 from 9:30 p.m. to 

11 p.m. The Captain of the Port 

Pittsburgh will inform the public 

through broadcast notices to mariners of 

the enforcement period for the safety 

zone as well as any changes in the 

planned schedule. 

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. 

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. 

Although this regulation will restrict 

access to the area, the effect of the rule 

will not be significant because this rule 

will be in effect for a short period of 

time and notifications to the marine 

community will be made through 

broadcast notices to mariners. The 

impacts on routine navigation are 

expected to be minimal. 

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 may be small 

entities: The owners or operators of 

vessels intending to transit that portion 

of the Allegheny River from mile marker 

5.7 to mile marker 5.9, 300 feet from the 

right descending bank from 9:30 p.m. to 

11 p.m. on August 6, 2011, with a rain 

date of August 7, 2011 from 9:30 p.m. 

to 11 p.m. 

This temporary safety zone will not 

have a significant economic impact on 

a substantial number of small entities 

for the following reasons. This rule will 

be enforced for a short period of time, 

on a weekend day, and during a time 

when vessel traffic is low. 

Assistance for Small Entities 

Under section 213(a) of the Small 

Business Regulatory Enforcement 

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

we offer to assist small entities in 

understanding the rule so that they can 

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). 


emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 152 / Monday, August 8, 2011 / Rules and Regulations 47995 

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 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 affect 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 

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 which do not 

individually or cumulatively have a 

significant effect on the human 

environment. This rule is categorically 

excluded, under figure 2–1, paragraph 

(34)(g), of the Instruction. This rule 

involves establishing, disestablishing, or 

changing Regulated Navigation Areas 

and security or safety zones. 

An environmental analysis checklist 

and a categorical exclusion 

determination are available in the 

docket where indicated under 

ADDRESSES.

Cobalt Lithium Manganese Nickel 

Oxide; Significant New Use Rule 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: EPA is issuing a significant 

new use rule (SNUR) under section 

5(a)(2) of the Toxic Substances Control 

Act (TSCA) for the chemical substance 

identified as cobalt lithium manganese 

nickel oxide (CAS No. 182442–95–1), 

which was the subject of 

premanufacture notice (PMN) P–04– 

269. This action requires persons who 

intend to manufacture, import, or 

process the chemical substance for a use 

that is designated as a significant new 

use by this final rule to notify EPA at 

least 90 days before commencing that 

activity. EPA believes that this action is 

necessary because the chemical 

substance may be hazardous to human 

health and the environment. The 

required notification would provide 

EPA with the opportunity to evaluate 

the intended use and, if necessary, to 

prohibit or limit that activity before it
