F. Environment 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Department of Homeland Security 

Directive 023–01, Rev. 1, associated 

implementing instructions, and 

Environmental Planning COMDTINST 

5090.1 (series), which guide the Coast 

Guard in complying with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 

U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and have 

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 rule involves a safety 

zone lasting only 2 hours that will 

prohibit entry within a 450-yard radius 

of the barge at position 47°18′7.06′′ N, 

122°28′35.74′′ W being used by the 

fireworks display company. It is 

categorically excluded from further 

review under paragraph L60(a) of 

Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction 

Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 1. A 

Record of Environmental Consideration 

supporting this determination is 

available in the docket. For instructions 

on locating the docket, see the 

ADDRESSES section of this preamble. 

G. Protest Activities 

The Coast Guard respects the First

Safety Zone; Lake Washington, 

Washington 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Temporary final rule. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is 

establishing a temporary safety zone in 

the navigable waters of Lake 

Washington, Washington to protect 

personnel, vessels, and the marine 

environment from potential hazards 

posed by low-flying aircraft during the 

First World Flight Centennial 

Celebration. Entry of vessels or persons 

into this zone is prohibited unless 

specifically authorized by the Captain of 

the Port Sector Puget Sound. 

DATES: This rule is effective from 1 p.m. 

through 5 p.m. on September 28, 2024.

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking 

§ Section 

U.S.C. United States Code 

II. Background Information and 

Regulatory History 

The Coast Guard is issuing this 

temporary rule under the authority in 5 

U.S.C. 553(b)(B). This statutory 

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.’’ The Coast Guard finds that 

good cause exists for not publishing a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

with respect to this rule because prompt 

action is required to ensure public 

safety during the First World Flight 

Centennial Celebration over Lake 

Washington. It is impracticable to 

publish an NPRM because we must 

establish this safety zone by September 

28, 2024. 

Also, 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. Delaying the effective date of 

this rule would be impracticable 

because prompt action is needed to 

mitigate the safety risks posed by the 

airshow. 

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule 

The Coast Guard is issuing this rule 

under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034. The 

Captain of the Port Sector Puget Sound 

(COTP) has determined that potential 

safety hazards associated with the 

airshow presents an increased risk to 

the safety of life to make this safety zone 

necessary to protect personnel, vessels, 

and the marine environment in the 

navigable waters of Lake Washington, 

Washington immediately before, during, 

and after the airshow takes place.

IV. Discussion of the Rule 

This rule establishes a safety zone 

from 1 p.m. through 5 p.m. on 

September 28, 2024, covering all 

navigable waters within Lake 

Washington, in the vicinity of Sand 

Point, starting at position 47°42′08′′ N, 

122°15′55′′ W thence eastward to 

47°42′26′′ N, 122°15′11′′ W thence 

southward to 47°40′51′′ N, 122°13′34′′ W 

thence westward to 47°40′32′′ N, 

122°14′18′′ W. The duration of the safety 

zone is intended to protect personnel, 

vessels, and the marine environment in 

these navigable waters before, during, 

and after the airshow. No vessel or 

person may enter the safety zone 

without obtaining permission from the 

COTP or a designated representative. 

V. Regulatory Analyses 

We developed this 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. 

This rule has not been designated a 

‘‘significant regulatory action,’’ under 

section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, as 

amended by Executive Order 14094 

(Modernizing Regulatory Review). 

Accordingly, this rule has not been 

reviewed by the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB). 

This regulatory action determination 

is based on the size, location, and 

duration of the safety zone. The 

regulated area is limited in scope, 

consists of a portion of the navigable 

waters within Lake Washington, 

Washington, affecting the area for a 

limited duration for a maximum of 4 

hours. Although persons and vessels not 

engaged in the actual marine event will 

not be able to enter, transit through, 

anchor in, or remain within the safety 

zone without authorization from the 

COTP or a designated representative, 

vessel traffic will be able to safely 

transit around the safety zone and the 

rule will allow vessels to seek 

permission to transit the zone. 

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 rule will not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities. 

While some owners or operators of 

vessels intending to transit the safety 

zone may be small entities, for the 

reasons stated in section V, subsection 

A above, this rule will not have a 

significant economic impact on any 

vessel owner or operator. 

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 rule. If the rule 

affects your small business, 

organization, or governmental 

jurisdiction and you have questions 

concerning its provisions or options for 

compliance, please call or email the 

person listed in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section. 

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). 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. 

C. Collection of Information 

This rule will 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 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 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. 

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 rule 

will not result in such an expenditure, 

we do discuss the effects of this rule 

elsewhere in this preamble. 

F. Environment 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Department of Homeland Security 

Directive 023–01, Rev. 1, associated 

implementing instructions, and 

Environmental Planning COMDTINST 

5090.1 (series), which guide the Coast 

Guard in complying with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 

U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and have 

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 rule involves a safety 

zone lasting only 4 hours that will 

prohibit entry within Lake Washington, 

Washington, in the vicinity of Sand 

Point, starting at position 47°42′08′′ N, 

122°15′55′′ W thence eastward to 

47°42′26′′ N, 122°15′11′′ W thence 

southward to 47°40′51′′ N, 122°13′34′′ W 

thence westward to 47°40′32′′ N, 

122°14′18′′ W being used for the 

airshow. It is categorically excluded 

from further review under paragraph 

L60(a) of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS 

Instruction Manual 023–01–001–01, 

Rev. 1. A Record of Environmental 

Consideration supporting this 

determination is available in the docket.
