Drawbridge Operation Regulation; 

Reynolds Channel, Atlantic Beach, NY 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Supplemental notice of 

proposed rulemaking. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to 

modify the operating schedule that 

governs the Atlantic Beach Bridge 

across the Reynolds Channel, mile 0.4, 

at Atlantic Beach, NY. The bridge 

owner, Nassau County Bridge Authority, 

submitted a request on September 22, 

2022 to modify the regulation to 

decrease the number of openings on 

signal from October through May. On 

November 16, 2023 Nassau County 

Bridge Authority sent an additional 

request to add a bridge tower call 

number and remove outdated language. 

It is expected that this change to the 

regulations will better serve the needs of 

the community while continuing to 

meet the reasonable needs of navigation. 

We invite your comments on this 

proposed rulemaking. 

DATES: Comments and relate material 

must reach the Coast Guard on or before 

March 22, 2024. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

identified by docket number USCG–

CFR Code of Federal Regulations 

DHS Department of Homeland Security

OMB Office of Management and Budget 

SNPRM Supplemental Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking 

§ Section 

U.S.C. United States Code 

II. Background, Purpose, Regulatory 

History, and Legal Basis 

The Atlantic Beach Bridge at mile 0.4, 

across Reynolds Channel, Atlantic 

Beach, NY, has a vertical clearance of 25 

feet at mean high water and a horizontal 

clearance of 125 feet. Waterway users 

include recreational and commercial 

vessels, including fishing vessels. 

The existing drawbridge operating 

regulations are listed at 33 CFR 

117.799(e). Under the current 

regulation, the bridge shall open on 

signal from October 1 through May 14. 

Nassau County is requesting the bridge 

shall open on signal from 8 a.m. to 

midnight October 1 through May 14 and 

on signal year-round, from midnight to 

8 a.m., if at least eight hours’ notice is 

given. 

The Reynolds Channel is transited by 

recreational vessels and commercial 

vessels. In recent years, a significant 

amount of industrial and commercial 

business has closed along the 

waterfront. This change has caused a 

decrease in the amount of bridge 

openings requested from midnight to 8 

a.m. 

Nassau County Bridge Authority held 

two public meetings, one on August 18, 

2022 and another on August 25, 2022. 

No one from the public attended. 

On August 25, 2023, the Coast Guard 

published a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) titled Drawbridge 

Operation Regulation; Reynolds 

Channel, Atlantic Beach, NY (88 FR 

58176). There we stated why we issued 

the NPRM and invited comments on our 

proposed regulatory action related to 

this drawbridge. During the comment 

period that ended September 25, 2023 

we did not receive any public 

comments. 

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule 

This supplemental proposed rule 

provides the draw to open on signal 

from 8 a.m. to midnight October 1 

through May 14; and from midnight to 

8 a.m. year-round, the draw shall open 

on signal if at least 8 hours’ notice is 

given. The reason for these changes is to 

reduce openings on signal during off 

peak hours due to a significant 

reduction of commercial business on the 

waterway. Additionally, in revised 

paragraph (2) of the regulation the 

Nassau County Bridge Authority 

provided a bridge tower phone number 

for mariners to contact when requesting 

a bridge opening; paragraph (3) will be 

rephrased to improve readability and 

clarity and remove unnecessary 

discussions of high tide predictions 

based on the NOAA published tide 

table. 

IV. Regulatory Analyses 

We developed this proposed rule after 

considering numerous statutes and 

Executive orders related to rulemaking. 

A summary of our analysis based on 

these statutes and Executive orders 

follows. 

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. 

This SNPRM has not been designated a 

‘‘significant regulatory action,’’ under 

Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, 

this SNPRM has not been reviewed by 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB). 

This regulatory action determination 

is based on the ability that vessels can 

still transit the bridge given advanced 

notice. 

B. Impact on Small Entities 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 

(RFA), 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. 

While some owners or operators of 

vessels intending to transit the bridge 

may be small entities, for the reasons 

stated in section IV.A above this 

proposed rule would not have a 

significant economic impact on any 

vessel owner or operator. 

If you think that your business, 

organization, or governmental 

jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity 

and that this rulemaking 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 rulemaking 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 call for no 

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.

Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 35 / Wednesday, February 21, 2024 / Proposed Rules 13015 

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 

more in any one year. Though this 

proposed rule will not result in such an 

expenditure, we do discuss the effects of 

this proposed rule elsewhere in this 

preamble. 

F. Environment 

We have analyzed this rulemaking 

under Department of Homeland 

Security Management Directive 023–01, 

Rev. 1, associated implementing 

instructions, and Environmental 

Planning Policy COMDTINST 5090.1 

(series), which guide the Coast Guard in 

complying with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 

(NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f). The 

Coast Guard has determined 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 

promulgates the operating regulations or 

procedures for drawbridges. Normally 

such actions are categorically excluded 

from further review, under paragraph 

L49, of chapter 3, table 3–1 of the U.S. 

Coast Guard Environmental Planning 

Implementation Procedures. 

Neither a Record of Environmental 

Consideration nor a Memorandum for 

the Record are required for this 

rulemaking. 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,
