FR Federal Register 

NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 

A. Regulatory History and 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 as it would be 

impracticable due to the short notice of 

the event. 

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 due to the short notice of the 

event. 

B. Basis and Purpose 

The legal basis for this rulemaking 

can be found in 33 CFR 1.05–1 which 

authorizes the Coast Guard to establish 

and define safety zones. The fireworks 

fallout zone will impede normal boating 

traffic in the Marina del Rey Main 

Channel. Due to the potentially 

hazardous conditions, this temporary 

safety zone is necessary to ensure the 

safety of all waterway users. 

C. Discussion of the Final Rule 

The U.S. Coast Guard is establishing 

a temporary safety zone on April 10, 

2015 encompassing all navigable waters 

from the surface to the sea floor within 

a 400 foot radius around the fireworks 

launch site on the south jetty in 

approximate position 33–57.742N 118– 

27.380W. This temporary safety zone 

will be enforced from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 

p.m. During the enforcement period, 

vessels are prohibited from entering 

into, transiting through, or anchoring 

within the designated area unless 

authorized by the Captain of the Port or 

her designated representative. Sector 

Los Angeles—Long Beach may be 

contacted on VHF–FM Channel 16 or 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES
17686 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 63 / Thursday, April 2, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 

310–521–3801. General boating public 

will be notified prior to the enforcement 

of the temporary safety zone via 

Broadcast Notice to Mariners. 

D. Regulatory Analyses 

We developed this rule after 

considering numerous statutes and 

executive orders related to rulemaking. 

Below we summarize our analyses 

based on these statutes and executive 

orders. 

1. Regulatory Planning and Review 

This rule is not a significant 

regulatory action under section 3(f) of 

Executive Order 12866, Regulatory 

Planning and Review, as supplemented 

by Executive Order 13563, Improving 

Regulation and Regulatory Review, and 

does not require an assessment of 

potential costs and benefits under 

section 6(a)(3) of Executive Order 12866 

or under section 1 of Executive Order 

13563. The Office of Management and 

Budget has not reviewed it under those 

Orders. It is not ‘‘significant’’ under the 

regulatory policies and procedures of 

the Department of Homeland Security 

(DHS). 

The implementation of this temporary 

safety zone is necessary for the 

protection of all waterway users. The 

size of the zone is the minimum 

necessary to provide adequate 

protection for the waterways users, 

adjoining areas, and the public. Any 

hardships experienced by persons or 

vessels are considered minimal 

compared to the interest in protecting 

the public. Accordingly, full regulatory 

evaluation under paragraph 10 (e) of the 

regulatory policies and procedures of 

the DHS is unnecessary. 

2. 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 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 or anchor 

within the designated area during the 

designated enforcement times. This 

temporary safety zone will not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities for 

the following reasons: (i) Vessel traffic 

can pass safely around the area, (ii) this 

zone is limited in scope and duration, 

(iii) the Coast Guard will issue 

Broadcast Notice to Mariners via VHF– 

FM marine channel 16 prior to and 

while the safety zone is enforced. 

3. Assistance for Small Entities 

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 

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, above. 

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. 

4. 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). 

5. Federalism 

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 

determined that this rule does not have 

implications for federalism. 

6. 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. 

7. 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 expenditure, we 

do discuss the effects of this rule 

elsewhere in this preamble. 

8. Taking of Private Property 

This rule will not cause a taking of 

private property or otherwise have 

taking implications under Executive 

Order 12630, Governmental Actions and 

Interference with Constitutionally 

Protected Property Rights. 

9. 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. 

10. 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. 

11. 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. 

12. Energy Effects 

This action is not a ‘‘significant 

energy action’’ under Executive Order 

13211, Actions Concerning Regulations 

That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use. 

13. Technical Standards 

This rule does not use technical 

standards. Therefore, we did not 

consider the use of voluntary consensus 

standards. 

14. 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 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 63 / Thursday, April 2, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 17687 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 

(NEPA) (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 is categorically 

excluded from further review under 

paragraph 34(g) of Figure 2–1 of the 

Commandant Instruction. An 

environmental analysis checklist 

supporting this determination and a 

Categorical Exclusion Determination are 

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 rule.

B. Basis and Purpose 

The legal basis for this rulemaking 

can be found in 33 CFR 1.05–1 which 

authorizes the Coast Guard to establish 

and define safety zones. With recent 

local labor disputes, protestors have 

targeted Tesoro Terminals within the 

Ports of Los Angeles—Long Beach. The 

Coast Guard anticipates water based 

demonstrations which may impede the 

safe navigation of vessels coming to and 

leaving Tesoro Terminals, as well as the 

demonstrators themselves. Thus, the 

Coast Guard is establishing a temporary 

safety zone on all navigable waters of 

the Pacific Ocean, from the surface to 

the sea floor, 100 yards in all direction 

of the following berths in the Port of 

Long Beach: Pier B 76–77, Pier B 84–87, 

and Pier T 121. 

C. Discussion of the Final Rule 

The U.S. Coast Guard is establishing 

a temporary safety zone encompassing

of the following berths in the Port of 

Long Beach: Pier B 76–77, Pier B 84–87, 

and Pier T 121. The temporary safety 

zone will be enforced throughout each 

day. During the enforcement period, 

vessels are prohibited from entering
