NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking 

Pub. L. Public Law 

§ Section 

U.S.C. United States Code 

COTP Captain of the Port 

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal 

Basis 

On February 23, 2018, the Coast 

Guard was notified by the Freedom Boat 

Club/DBC about the Carolina Boat Bash, 

which will be held on August 18, 2018, 

and will impact waters of the Little 

River Inlet, Little River, South Carolina. 

The legal basis for the proposed rule is 

the Coast Guard’s authority to establish 

special local regulations is 33 U.S.C. 

1233. The purpose of the rule is to 

ensure safety of life on navigable waters 

of the United States during the Carolina 

Boat Bash. 

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule 

The COTP proposes to establish a 

special local regulation from 11 a.m. to 

6 p.m. on August 18, 2018. The event 

will consist of live music from two 40’ 

by 20’ spud barges. This is expected to 

be a heavily attended event with an 

estimated 1200–1400 recreational boats 

possibly transiting the area. 

The proposed special local regulation 

is necessary to ensure the safety of 

participants, spectators, and vessels 

from the hazards associated with the 

event. The duration of the special local 

regulation is intended to ensure the 

safety of event participants, the general 

public, vessels and navigable waters 

during the event scheduled time frame. 

Approximately 1400 vessels are 

anticipated to transit through the event 

area during that time frame. No vessel 

or person would be permitted to enter 

the marked regulated area without 

obtaining permission from the COTP or 

a designated representative. The 

regulatory text we are proposing appears 

at the end of this document. 

IV. 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 and 

Executive orders and we discuss First 

Amendment rights of protestors. 

A. Regulatory Planning and Review 

Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 

direct agencies to assess the costs and 

benefits of available regulatory 

alternatives and, if regulation is 

necessary, to select regulatory 

approaches that maximize net benefits. 

Executive Order 13771 directs agencies 

to control regulatory costs through a 

budgeting process. This NPRM has not 

been designated a ‘‘significant 

regulatory action,’’ under Executive 

Order 12866. Accordingly, the NPRM 

has not been reviewed by the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB), and 

pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt 

from the requirements of Executive 

Order 13771. 

The economic impact of this proposed 

rule is not significant for the following 

reasons: (1) Non-participant persons and 

vessels may enter, transit through, 

anchor in, or remain within the 

regulated area during the enforcement 

periods if authorized by the COTP or a 

designated representative; (2) vessels 

not authorized to enter, transit through, 

anchor in, or remain within the 

regulated area may operate in the 

surrounding areas during the 

enforcement period; and (3) the Coast 

Guard will provide advance notification 

of the special local regulation to the 

local maritime community by Local 

Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice 

to Mariners. 

B. Impact on Small Entities 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 

1980, 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 would not 

have a significant economic impact on 

a substantial number of small entities. 

We have considered the impact of this 

proposed rule on small entities. This 

rule may affect the following entities, 

some of which may be small entities: 

the owner or operators of vessels 

intending to enter, transit through, 

anchor in, or remain within the 

regulated area during the enforcement 

period. For the reasons stated in section 

IV.A. above, this proposed rule would 

not have a significant economic 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 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. 

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 section. 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. 

C. Collection of Information 

This proposed rule would not call for 

a new collection of information under 

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520). 

D. Federalism and Indian Tribal 

Governments 

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 have determined that it is 

consistent with the fundamental 

federalism principles and preemption 

requirements described in Executive 

Order 13132. 

Also, 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. 

If you believe this proposed rule has 

implications for federalism or Indian 

tribes, please contact the person listed 

in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT section. 

E. 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 


amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with PROPOSALS1
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 132 / Tuesday, July 10, 2018 / Proposed Rules 31915 

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. 

F. 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 (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 proposed rule 

involves a special local regulation on 

one day lasting from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 

p.m., prohibiting traffic from 

approaching the barges. Normally such 

actions are categorically excluded from 

further review under paragraph L 63(b) 

of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS 

Instruction Manual 023–01–001–01, 

Rev. 01. A preliminary Record of 

Environmental Consideration 

supporting this determination is 

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 

proposed rule. 

G. 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. 

V. Public Participation and Request for 

Comments 

We view public participation as 

essential to effective rulemaking, and 

will consider all comments and material 

received during the comment period. 

Your comment can help shape the 

outcome of this rulemaking. If you 

submit a comment, please include the 

docket number for this rulemaking, 

indicate the specific section of this 

document to which each comment 

applies, and provide a reason for each 

suggestion or recommendation.

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The EPA is proposing to 

determine that the Cross-State Air 

Pollution Rule Update for the 2008 

ozone National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards (NAAQS) (CSAPR Update) 

fully addresses certain states’ 

obligations under Clean Air Act (CAA) 

section 110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) regarding 

interstate pollution transport for the 

2008 ozone NAAQS. The CSAPR 

Update, published on October 26, 2016, 

promulgated Federal Implementation 

Plans (FIPs) for 22 states in the eastern 

U.S. In the final CSAPR Update, based 

on information available at that time, 

the EPA could not conclude that the 

rule fully addressed CAA section 

110(a)(2)(D)(i)(I) obligations for 21 of the 

22 CSAPR Update states. This action 

proposes a determination that, based on 

additional information and analysis, the 

CSAPR Update fully addresses this CAA 

provision for the 2008 ozone NAAQS 

for all remaining CSAPR Update states. 

Specifically, EPA proposes to determine
