Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 155 / Tuesday, August 12, 1997 / Rules and Regulations 43099

by the LA Pilot Service are not

available. Due to the increased risk of

moving vessels under these conditions,

the Captain of the Port, under the

authority of the Ports and Waterways

Safety Act, is implementing a safety

zone to ensure the safe movement of

vessels during the period of the work

stoppage. Vessels 300 Gross Tons and

greater are prohibited from entering into

or transiting within the safety zone

unless authorized by the Captain of the

Port.

Regulatory Evaluation

This regulation is not a significant

regulatory action under section 3(f) of

Executive Order 12866 and does not

require an assessment of potential costs

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

order. It has been exempted from review

by the Office of Management and

Budget under that order. It is not

significant under the regulatory policies

and procedures of the Department of

Transportation (DOT) (44 FR 11040;

February 26, 1979). Since the safety

zone will only affect vessels of 300 gross

tons or greater, and movement of these

vessels will only be delayed, not

completely prohibited, the Coast Guard

expects the economic impact of this

regulation to be so minimal that a full

Regulatory Evaluation under paragraph

10(e) of the regulatory policies and

procedures of the Department of

Transportation is unnecessary.

Collection of Information

This regulation contains no collection

of information requirements under the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

3501–3520).

Federalism

The Coast Guard has analyzed this

regulation under the principles and

criteria contained in Executive Order

12612 and has determined that this rule

does not have sufficient federalism

implications to warrant the preparation

of a Federalism Assessment.

Environment

The Coast Guard considered the

environmental impact of this regulation

and concluded that under paragraph

2.B.2e(34)(g) of Commandant

Instruction M16475.1B as revised in 59

CFR 38654, July 29, 1994, it will have

no significant environmental impact

and it is categorically excluded from

further environmental documentation.

[COTP Memphis 97–001]

RIN 2115–AA97

Safety Zone; Lower Mississippi River,

Mile 661.0 to Mile 662.0

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT.

ACTION: Temporary rule.

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is

establishing a temporary safety zone on

the Lower Mississippi River between

mile 661.0 and mile 662.0. The zone is

needed to protect vessel traffic during

bridge repairs and the potential for

falling debris. Entry of vessels or

persons into this zone is prohibited

unless specifically authorized by the

Captain of the Port.

DATES: This regulation becomes

effective at 12:01 a.m. on July 17, 1997,

and terminates at 11:59 p.m. on August

31, 1997.

Port, 200 Jefferson Avenue, Suite 1301,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background and Purpose

At approximately 12:01 a.m. on July

17, 1997, the Arkansas Highway

Transportation Department will

commence repairs to the Helena

Highway Bridge at Lower Mississippi

River mile 661.8 on the left descending

bank. The operation is expected to be

completed within four to six weeks from

the commencement date. The navigable

channel will be open during the

operations. Entry of vessels or persons

into this zone is prohibited unless

specifically authorized by the Captain of

the Port.

In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 553, a

notice of proposed rulemaking was not

published for this regulation and good

cause exists for making it effective in

less than 30 days after Federal Register

publication. Publication of a notice of

proposed rulemaking and delay of

effective date would be contrary to the

public interest because immediate

action is necessary. Specifically,

immediate action is necessary to

facilitate repairs to the Helena Highway

Bridge. Harm to the public or

environment may result if vessel traffic

is not controlled during the operations.

As a result, the Coast Guard deems it to

be in the public’s best interest to issue

a regulation immediately.

Regulatory Evaluation

This rule is not a significant

regulatory action under section 3(f) of

Executive Order 12866 and does not

require an assessment of potential costs

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

order. It has not been reviewed by the

Office of Management and Budget under

that order. It is not significant under the

regulatory policies and procedures of

the Department of Transportation (DOT)

(44 FR 11040; February 26, 1979). The

Coast Guard expects the economic

impact of this proposal to be so minimal

that a full Regulatory Evaluation under

paragraph 10e of the regulatory policies

and procedures of DOT is unnecessary.

Collection of Information

This rule contains no information

collection requirements under the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

3501–3520).

Federalism

The Coast Guard has analyzed this

rule under the principles and criteria

contained in Executive Order 12612 and

has determined that this rule does not

have sufficient federalism implications
43100 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 155 / Tuesday, August 12, 1997 / Rules and Regulations

to warrant the preparation of a

Federalism Assessment.

Environment

The Coast Guard considered the

environmental impact of this rule and

concluded that, under paragraph

2.B.2e(34)(g) of Commandant

Instruction M16475.1B (as revised by 59

FR 38654; July 29, 1994), this rule is

categorically excluded from further

environmental documentation.

160.5; and 49 CFR 1.46.

2. A new temporary section 165.T02–

050 is added to read as follows:
