Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 140 /Wednesday, July 22, 1998 /Rules and Regulations 39237

regulation establishes a safety zone in

all waters of Boston Harbor within four

hundred (400) yards of the fireworks

barge moored approximately 400 yards

east of the Coast Guard Integrated

Support Command, Boston. This safety

zone is in effect from 9 p.m. until 11

p.m. on Saturday July 25, 1998. This

safety zone prevents movement within

the zone and is needed to protect the

boating public viewing this display from

the dangers posed by the fireworks

display.

Regulatory Evaluation

This final 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 rule to be so minimal that

a full Regulatory Evaluation under

paragraph 10e of the regulatory policies

and procedures of DOT is unnecessary.

Deep draft vessel traffic, fishing vessels

and tour boats may experience minor

delays in departures or arrivals due to

the safety zone. Costs to the shipping

industry from these regulations, if any,

will be minor and have no significant

adverse financial effect on vessel

operators. In addition, due to the

limited number and duration of the

arrivals, departures and harbor transits,

the Coast Guard expects the economic

impact of this regulation to be so

minimal that a Regulatory Evaluation is

unnecessary.

Small Entities

Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act

(5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), the Coast Guard

must consider the economic impact on

small entities of a rule for which a

general notice of proposed rulemaking

is required. Small entities may include

(1) small businesses and not-for-profit

organizations that are independently

owned and operated and are not

dominant in their fields and (2)

governmental jurisdictions with

populations of less than 50,000.

For the reasons discussed in the

Regulatory Evaluation above, the Coast

Guard certifies under section 605(b) of

the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C.

601 et seq.) that this final rule will not

have a significant impact on a

substantial number of small entities.

Collection of Information

This proposal contains no collection

of information requirements under the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).

Federalism

The Coast Guard has analyzed this

final rule under the principles and

criteria contained in Executive Order

12612, and has determined that this

final rule does not have sufficient

federalism implications to warrant the

preparation of a Federalism Assessment.

Environment

The Coast Guard has considered the

environmental impact of this final rule

and concluded that, under Figure 2–1,

paragraph 34(g), of Commandant

Instruction M16475.1C, this final rule is

categorically excluded from further

environmental documentation. A

‘‘Categorical Exclusion Determination’’

is available in the docket for inspection

or copying where indicated under

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Regulatory History

Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553, a notice of

proposed rulemaking (NPRM) was not

published for this regulation, and good

cause exists for making it effective in

less than 30 days after Federal Register

publication. Any delay encountered in

this regulation’s effective date would be

contrary to the public interest since

immediate action is needed to close a

portion of the waterway and protect the

maritime public from the hazards

associated with this fireworks display,
39238 Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 140 /Wednesday, July 22, 1998 /Rules and Regulations

which in intended for public

entertainment.

Background and Purpose

On June 5, 1998 the Beverly

Harbormaster filed a marine event

permit with the Coast Guard to hold a

fireworks program on the waters of

Beverly Harbor, Beverly, MA. The

Beverly Harbormaster is sponsoring the

fireworks program. This regulation

establishes a safety zone in all waters of

Beverly Harbor within a four hundred

(400) yard radius of the fireworks barge

moored in approximate position

42°32.4′ N, 070°51.5′ W. This safety

zone is in effect from 9 p.m. until 11:45

p.m. on Sunday August 9, 1998. This

safety zone prevents entry into or

movement within this portion of

Beverly Harbor, and it is needed to

protect the boating public viewing this

display from the dangers posed by the

fireworks display.

Regulatory Evaluation

This final 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

industry from these regulations, if any

will be minor and have no significant

adverse financial effect on vessel

operators. In addition, due to the

limited number and duration of the

arrivals, departures and harbor transits,

the Coast Guard expects the economic

impact of this regulation to be so

minimal that a Regulatory Evaluation is

unnecessary.

Small Entities

Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act

(5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), the Coast Guard

considered whether this rule would

have a significant economic impact on

a substantial number of small entities.

‘‘Small entities’’ may include (1) small

businesses and not-for-profit

organizations that are independently

owned and operated and are not

dominant in their fields and (2)

governmental jurisdictions with

populations of less than 50,000.

For the reasons discussed in the

Regulatory Evaluation above, the Coast

Guard certifies under section 605(b) of

the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C.

601 et seq.), that this rule will not have

a significant impact on a substantial

number of small entities.

This proposal contains no collection

of information requirements under the
