SECURITY 

Coast Guard 

33 CFR Part 165 

[Docket No. USCG–2007–29354] 

RIN 1625–AA87 

Security Zone; Nawiliwili Harbor, 

Kauai, HI 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking; 

extension of comment period. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is extending 

the comment period for its notice of 

proposed rulemaking published October 

3, 2007, to create a security zone in the 

waters of Nawiliwili Harbor, Kauai, and 

on the land of the jetty south of 

Nawiliwili Park, including the jetty 

access road commonly known as Jetty 

Road. The proposed security zone is 

intended to enable the Coast Guard and 

its law enforcement partners to better 

protect people, vessels, and facilities in 

and around Nawiliwili Harbor in the 

face of non-compliant obstructers who 

have impeded, and threaten to continue 

impeding, the safe passage of the Hawaii 

Superferry in Nawiliwili Harbor. The 

proposed rule complements, but does 

not replace or supersede, existing 

regulations that establish a moving 100- 

yard security zone around large 

passenger vessels like the Hawaii 

Superferry. 

DATES: Comments and related material 

must reach the Coast Guard on or before 

November 20, 2007. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

and related material, identified by Coast 

Guard docket number USCG–2007–

29354, in any of the three methods 

listed below. To avoid duplication, 

please use only one of the following 

methods:

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Lieutenant Sean Fahey, U.S. Coast 

Guard District 14 at (808) 541–2106. 

Request for Additional Comments 

On October 3, 2007, we published a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

entitled ‘‘Security Zone; Nawiliwili 

Harbor, Kauai, Hawaii’’ in the Federal 

Register (72 FR 56308). The comment 

period for the NPRM was originally set 

to expire on October 24, 2007. Although 

we received many comments on the 

subject rule, a few people wishing to 

submit comments expressed difficulty 

using the Federal eRulemaking Portal, 

one of the four methods available to 

submit comments on the NPRM. 

Recently, the Coast Guard migrated its 

online rulemaking docket from the 

Docket Management System (DMS) to 

the Federal Docket Management System 

(FMS) (72 FR 54315, Sept. 24, 2007), 

and this migration was accompanied by 

transition difficulties and delays in 

comments being posted on FDMS. So 

we will continue to accept comments on 

the propose rule until November 20, 

2007. Comments may be submitted in 

one of the three methods listed in the 

ADDRESSES section of this rule. Based on 

the comments we receive, we may 

change the rule. 

We encourage you to participate in 

this rulemaking by submitting 

comments and related material. If you 

do so, please identify the docket number 

for this rulemaking (USCG–2007–

29354), indicate the specific section of 

this document to which each comment 

applies, and give the reason for each 

comment. We recommend that you 

include your name, mailing address, 

and an e-mail address or other contact 

information in the body of your 

document to ensure that you can be 

identified as the submitter. This also 

allows us to contact you in the event 

further information is needed or if there 

are questions. For example, if we cannot 

read your submission due to technical 

difficulties and you cannot be 

contacted, your submission may not be 

considered. Please submit all comments 

and related material in an unbound 

format, no larger than 81⁄2 by 11 inches, 

suitable for copying. If you would like 

to know your comments reached us, 

please enclose a stamped, self-addressed 

postcard or envelope. We will consider 

all comments and material received 

during the comment period. We may 

change this proposed rule in view of 

them. 

Temporary Final Rule 

Concurrent with this notice to extend 

the comment period, the Coast Guard is 

also publishing a temporary final rule 

for a security zone in Nawiliwili Harbor. 

That temporary final rule can be found 

elsewhere in this issue of the Federal 

Register. The temporary final rule is 

being issued on an emergency basis to 

ensure that there is a security zone in 

place after the current security zone (72 

FR 50877, September 5, 2007) expires 

on October 31, 2007. That temporary 

final rule is of limited duration—it will 

be in effect from November 1, 2007, 

through November 30, 2007—and is 

necessary to ensure the safety and 

security of water-based and land-based 

obstructers, as well as the passengers 

and crew of the Superferry, should the 

Superferry transit through Nawiliwili 

Harbor. 

Public Meeting 

During this extended comment 

period, you may also submit a request 

for a public meeting. Based on the 

comments we receive, we may choose to 

hold a public meeting. You may submit 

a request for a public meeting to 

Lieutenant Sean Fahey at U.S. Coast 

Guard District 14, PJKK Federal 

Building, 300 Ala Moana Blvd., 

Honolulu, Hawaii 96850, explaining 

why one would be beneficial. The 

deadline for submitting requests is 

November 20, 2007. 

If we determine that a public meeting 

would aid this rulemaking, we will hold 

one at a time and place announced by 

a later notice in the Federal Register.

Background 

Section 106(6) of the Copyright Act, 

title 17 of the United States Code, gives 

a copyright owner of sound recordings 

an exclusive right to perform the 

copyrighted works publicly by means of 

a digital audio transmission. This right

allows certain non-interactive digital 

audio services, including preexisting 

subscription services, to make digital 

transmissions of a sound recording 

under a compulsory license, provided 

the services pay a reasonable royalty fee 

and comply with the terms of the 

license. Moreover, these services may
