475(c)(1) and satisfies the licensing

requirements of paragraph (b)(3)(ii) of this

section. Because M’s sole activity is

conducting a matched book repo business, M

is not a securities dealer within the meaning

of section 475. For its taxable year ending

December 31, 1994, SD earns $100 of gross

income from trading profits and interest and

dividends on inventory. For its taxable year

ending December 31, 1994, M earns $50 of

net interest income from its matched book

repo business. SD and M earn no other

income. All of SD and M’s assets are held in

connection with their securities businesses

and none has been identified as having been

held for investment.

(ii) Securities income earned by SD. SD is

an active dealer under paragraph (b) of this

section because it is a securities dealer under

section 475 and satisfies the licensing

requirements of paragraph (b)(3)(ii) of this

section. Therefore, because SD is a controlled

foreign corporation, SD’s securities income is

nonpassive under paragraph (a) of this

section.

(iii) Securities income earned by M. (A) SD

and M are financial services entities that are

the only members of a related group as

defined in paragraph (j)(4) of this section.

The percentage of the SD–M related group’s

financial services income that is securities

income earned by active dealers (SD), is

66.66 percent (($100/$150) X 100). The

percentage of the SD–M related group’s

financial services income that is securities

income, banking income (as defined in

§ 1.1296–4(f)), or insurance income (as

defined in section 1296(b)(2)(B)) is 100

percent (($150/$150)×100). In addition, the

percentage of M’s income that is securities

income is 100 percent (($50/$50)×100).

(B) M is a qualified securities affiliate

because the gross income tests of paragraphs

(j)(2) and (3) of this section are satisfied.

Accordingly, because M is a controlled

foreign corporation, M’s securities income is

nonpassive for purposes of determining

whether C or D own an interest in a PFIC

(whether SD or M). M is thus not a PFIC with

respect to C or D because it does not meet

the income or asset tests of section 1296(a).

SD also is not a PFIC with respect to C or D

because it does not meet the income or assets

tests of section 1296(a), after applying the

look-through rule of section 1296(c).

(C) However, because B owns less than 10

percent of the stock of SD, and is therefore

not a United States shareholder with respect

to SD under section 951(b), M’s interest

income is passive (even though it is

securities income) for purposes of

determining whether B’s indirect interest in

M is an interest in a PFIC. Moreover, M’s

interest income is passive for purposes of

determining whether A owns an interest in

a PFIC. As a result, M meets the income and

asset tests of section 1296(a) and is therefore

a PFIC with respect to A and B.

(k) Income from nonsecurities

activities. Income derived from the

conduct of activities other than

securities activities described in

paragraph (e)(2) of this section and

income from assets held for the conduct

of such other activities are nonpassive

only to the extent otherwise provided in

section 1296.

(l) Effective date. This section is

effective for taxable years beginning

after September 30, 1993.

Coast Guard

33 CFR Part 100

[CGD01–95–033]

Special Local Regulation: 1995 Special

Olympics World Games, Long Island

Sound, New Haven, CT

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to

establish a temporary special local

regulation for the 1995 Special

Olympics World Games. Maritime

activities held as a part of the Special

Olympics World Games will take place

in the waters of Long Island Sound

approaching New Haven, Connecticut.

The dates for these maritime activities

are July 1–July 10, 1995. This regulation

is needed to allow the Special Olympics

World Games Committee to hold the

various maritime activities associated

with the 1995 Special Olympics World

Games without interference from the

boating public, and to protect boaters,

spectators, and participants from the

dangers associated with these events.

DATES: Comments must be received on

or before May 30, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be

mailed to Commander (b), First Coast

Guard District, Captain John Foster

Williams Federal Building, 408 Atlantic

Ave., Boston, MA 02110–3350, or may

be hand delivered to Room 428 at the

same address, between 8 a.m. and 4

p.m., Monday through Friday, except

federal holidays. Comments will

become part of this docket and will be

available for inspection or copying at

the above address.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Lieutenant (jg) B.M. Algeo, Chief,

Boating Affairs Branch, First Coast

Guard District, (617) 223–8311.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Request for Comments

The Coast Guard encourages

interested persons to participate in this

rulemaking by submitting written data,

views, or arguments. Persons submitting

comments should include their names

and addresses, identify this notice

(CGD01–95–033), the specific section of

the proposal to which each comment

applies, and give reasons for each

comment. The Coast Guard requests that

all comments and attachments be

submitted in an 81⁄2′′ × 11′′ unbound

format suitable for copying and

electronic filing. If that is not practical,

a second copy of any bound material is

requested. Persons requesting

acknowledgment of receipt of comments

should enclose a stamped, selfaddressed postcard or envelope.

The Coast Guard will consider all

comments received during the comment

period. It may change this proposal in

view of the comments. The Coast Guard

plans no public hearing. Persons may

request a public hearing by writing to

Commander (b), First Coast Guard

District at the address under ADDRESSES.

The request should include reasons why

a hearing would be beneficial. If it is

determined that the opportunity for oral

presentations will aid this rulemaking,

the Coast Guard will hold a public

hearing at a time and place announced

by a later notice in the Federal Register.

Drafting Information

The drafters of this notice are

Lieutenant(jg) Eric Doucette, Project

Manager, Captain of the Port, Long

Island Sound, and Lieutenant

Commander F.J. Kenney, Project

Counsel, First Coast Guard District Legal

Office.

Background and Purpose

The 1995 Special Olympics World

Games are scheduled to be held in New

Haven, Connecticut, from July 1–July

10, 1995. As part of the schedule of

events, various maritime activities are

planned for the participants and the

public. The Special Olympics World

Games Committee has submitted three

marine events permits to the U.S. Coast

Guard. The maritime activities for

which permits have been requested are

to be held in the waters of Long Island

Sound approaching New Haven,

Connecticut. The activities include

sailboat races, a Parade of Sail, and

fireworks displays. Due to the inherent

dangers of fireworks displays and the

need for vessel control during the

various races and the Parade of Sail,

vessel traffic will be temporarily

restricted to provide for the safety of the

spectators and participants through the

establishment of a proposed regulated

area in New Haven Harbor and Long

Island Sound.

The Coast Guard is establishing an

operational order to provide for the

effective coordination of the activities
Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 82 / Friday, April 28, 1995 / Proposed Rules 20931

associated with the 1995 Special

Olympics World Games. The specific

tasking given to the various Coast Guard

resources will be included in this

operational order. Due to the proximity

of the participating vessels and large

number of expected spectator craft, it is

necessary to establish a special local

regulation to control spectator vessel

movement within this confined area.

Discussion of Proposed Amendments

The Coast Guard proposes to establish

a special local regulation on specified

waters of Long Island Sound and New

Haven Harbor, New Haven, Connecticut.

Because of the varied nature of the

events planned during the Special

Olympics World Games, and the length

of time over which the events are

scheduled to run, the Coast Guard

believes the most effective way to meet

all safety, security and vessel control

objectives is to establish a one large

regulated area, divided into 15 sectors.

As events occur, individual sectors will

open and close as the need arises. A

chartlet illustrating each sector is

available by writing to the address

under ADDRESSES or by calling the

telephone number in FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT. Provisions will be

made, when possible, to allow escort by

Coast Guard patrol craft for vessels

desiring to transit a closed sector of the

regulated area. Special anchorage and

viewing areas for spectator craft have

also been established. This regulation is

needed to protect spectators and

participants from the hazards associated

with the fireworks displays, Parade of

Sail, and to provide for vessel control in

a confined area.

Regulatory Evaluations

This proposal 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 been exempted from review

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 to be so

minimal that a full Regulatory

Evaluation, under paragraph 10e of the

regulatory policies and procedures of

DOT, is unnecessary. This conclusion is

based on the fact that closed sectors will

remain closed for a limited amount of

time, the extensive advisories that have

been and will be made to the affected

maritime community so that they may

adjust their schedules accordingly, and

the fact that the event schedule will

allow commercial interests to

coordinate their activities to allow

minimal disruption to their enterprise.

Small Entities

Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act

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

must consider whether this proposal

will have a significant economic impact

on a substantial number of small

entities. ‘‘Small entities’’ include

independently owned and operated

small businesses that are not dominant

in their fields and that otherwise qualify

as ‘‘small business concerns’’ under

section 3 of the Small Business Act (15

U.S.C. 632).

For the reasons discussed in the

Regulatory Evaluation, the Coast Guard

certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this

proposal will not have a significant

economic impact on a substantial

number of small entities.

Collection of Information

This proposal contains no collection

of information requirements under the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq.).

Federalism

The Coast Guard has analyzed this

proposal in accordance with the

principles and criteria contained in

Executive Order 12612 and has

determined that this proposal does not

have sufficient federalism implications

to warrant the preparation of a

Federalism Assessment.

Environment

The Coast Guard is considering the

environmental impacts of both these

Special Local Regulations and the

marine events that will be part of the

1995 Special Olympics World Games. It

is anticipated that one Environmental

Assessment (EA) will be written for all

Special Olympics World Games events

for which Coast Guard Marine Event

Permits will be issued. Comments in

this regard should be forwarded to the

address listed under ADDRESSES.

Inspection/Maintenance Flexibility

Amendments

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

SUMMARY: This notice proposes

revisions to the motor vehicle

Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) Program

Requirements. EPA announced its intent

to amend the I/M Program Requirements

in December 1994 and held

stakeholders’ meetings on January 24,

1995 and January 31, 1995. This

proposed action would create a second,

less stringent enhanced I/M

performance standard that could be

used in areas that can demonstrate an

ability to meet the 1990 Clean Air Act

deadlines for Reasonable Further

Progress and attainment while

implementing an I/M program that falls

below the originally promulgated

enhanced I/M performance standard.
