§ Section 

U.S.C. United States Code 

II. Background Information and 

Regulatory History 

The legal basis and authorities for this 

rulemaking are found in 46 U.S.C. 

70006, 33 CFR 109.05, 33 CFR 1.05–1, 

and DHS Delegation No. 0170.1, 

Revision No. 01.2, which collectively 

authorize the Coast Guard to propose, 

establish, and define regulatory 

anchorage grounds. Under title 33 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

109, § 109.05, U.S. Coast Guard District 

Commanders are delegated the authority 

to establish anchorage grounds by the 

Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard. 

The Coast Guard established Anchorage 

Grounds under 33 CFR 110.1(b)(32 FR 

17728, Dec. 12, 1967, as amended by 52 

FR 33811, Sept. 8, 1987; 63 FR 5526, 

June 30, 1998). 

The project to modify or establish ten 

anchorage grounds along the LMR was 

initiated in 2019. From 2019 through 

2022, certain port stakeholders, 

(including Crescent River Port Pilots’ 

Association (CRPPA), Maritime 

Navigation Safety Association (MNSA), 

Coastal Protection and Restoration 

Authority (CPRA) and United States 

Coast Guard (USCG)) worked to 

determine if the proposed modifications 

were necessary and in suitable 

locations, with consideration given to, 

among other things, environmental 

factors. 

In 2021, a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) was published on 

August 29, 2021 (86 FR 48354), the 

Coast Guard solicited comments from 

the maritime stakeholders. At the end of 

the comment period ending on 

September 29, 2021, the project received 

a total of one comment that 

recommended adding a Note identifying 

revetments into the text of each of the 

applicable proposed changes to 

anchorage grounds. 

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule 

The legal basis and authorities for this 

rulemaking are found in 46 U.S.C. 

70006, 33 CFR 109.05, 33 CFR 1.05–1, 

and DHS Delegation No. 0170.1, 

Revision No. 01.2, which collectively 

authorize the Coast Guard to propose, 

establish, and define regulatory 

anchorage grounds. Under Title 33 of 

the Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) 

part 109.05, U.S. Coast Guard District 

Commanders are delegated the authority 

to establish anchorage grounds by the 

Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard. 

The Coast Guard established Anchorage 

Grounds under title 33 CFR 110.1(b)(32 

FR 17728, Dec. 12, 1967, as amended by 

52 FR 33811, Sept. 8, 1987; 63 FR 5526, 

June 30, 1998). 

The Commander of Coast Guard 

District Eight is establishing one new 

anchorage ground and amending nine 

existing anchorage grounds along the 

LMR, ranging from MM 12 to MM 85 

AHP. Currently, there are not adequate 

anchorage grounds along the river 

system to facilitate the safe anchorage of 

shallow and deep draft vessels along the 

LMR. This action would ensure safe 

navigation of vessels on LMR. 

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, 

and the Rule 

As noted above, we received one 

comment on the NPRM published on 

August 29, 2021. This comment 

proposed to include additional text to 6 

of the anchorage grounds that would 

identify revetments located within or 

adjacent to those specific anchorage 

grounds. The Coast Guard agrees that, 

since the NPRM proposed to include 

notes to Cedar Grove and Lower 12 

Mile, which identify revetments located 

within/adjacent to those specific 

anchorage grounds, the proposed 

changes to the anchorage grounds 

would be beneficial. 

The changes in the regulatory text of 

this rule from the rule in the NPRM are 

discussed below. The specific anchorage 

boundaries are described in detail in the 

regulatory text at the end of the 

document. In general, this rule will have 

the following effects: 

1. Increase the length of the Boothville 

Anchorage from 5.5 miles to 6.45 miles and 

add a note to the text of the Boothville 

Anchorage (33 CFR 110.195(a)(4)). 

2. Increase the length of the Magnolia 

Anchorage from 2.1 miles to 2.2 miles and 

add a note to the text of the Magnolia 

Anchorage (33 CFR 110.195(a)(7)). 

3. Increase the length of the Davant 

Anchorage from 1.1 miles to 1.4 miles (33 

CFR 110.195(a)(9)). 

4. Decrease the width of the Wills Point 

Anchorage from 600 feet to 500 feet (33 CFR 

110.195(a)(11)). 

5. Add a note to the text of the Cedar Grove 

Anchorage (33 CFR 110.195(a)(12)). 

6. Increase the length of the Belle Chasse 

Anchorage from 2.1 miles to 2.15 miles, 

decrease the width from 575 feet to 500 feet 

and add a note to the text of the Belle Chasse 

Anchorage ((33 CFR 110.195(a)(13)). 

7. Add a Note to the text of the Lower 12 

Mile Point Anchorage (33 CFR 

110.195(a)(14)). 

8. Increase the length of the Lower 9 Mile 

Point Anchorage from 2.3 miles to 2.4 miles 

add a note to the text of the Lower 9 Mile 

Anchorage (33 CFR 110.195(a)(15)). 

9. Increase the length of the Point Michel 

Anchorage from 1.4 miles to 2.2 miles and 

add a note to the text of the Point Michel 

Anchorage (33 CFR 110.195(a)(35)). 

10. Add a new anchorage, the Phoenix 

Anchorage, to include the area, 0.6 miles in 

length, along the left descending bank of the 

river extending from mile 57.82 to mile 58.42 

Above Head of Passes. The width of the 

anchorage is 400 feet. The inner boundary of 

the anchorage is a line parallel to the nearest 

bank 400 feet from the water’s edge into the 

river as measured from the LWRP. The outer 

boundary of the anchorage is a line parallel 

to the nearest bank 800 feet from the water’s 

edge into the river as measured from the 

LWRP. Add a note to the text of the Phoenix 

Anchorage. 

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 

Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, 

this rule has not been reviewed by the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB). 

This regulatory action determination 

is based on minimal impact to routine 

navigation. The anchorage areas do not 

restrict traffic as they are located well 

outside the established navigation 

channel. Vessels maneuver in, around 

and through the anchorages.

29670 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 94 / Monday, May 16, 2022 / Rules and Regulations 

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 received no comments 

from the Small Business Administration 

on this 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. 

While some owners or operators of 

vessels intending to transit the 

anchorage grounds may be small 

entities, for the reasons stated in section 

V.A. above, this rule would 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 

would affect 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 the 

establishment of one new anchorage 

grounds and the modification of nine 

existing anchorage grounds along the 

LMR. It is categorically excluded from 

further review under paragraph Land 

L59 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 

Amendment rights of protesters. 

Protesters are asked to call or email 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.
