Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 94 / Monday, May 17, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 27429 

Public participation. OSHA 

determined that this technical 

amendment is not subject to the 

procedures for public notice and 

comment specified by Section 4 of the 

Administrative Procedures Act (5 U.S.C. 

553), Section 6(b) of the Occupational 

Safety and Health Act of 1970 (29 U.S.C. 

655(b)), and 29 CFR 1911.5. This 

technical amendment of 29 CFR 

1926.754(a) merely notifies the 

regulated community of existing Federal 

regulations; it is nonmandatory and 

disseminated for informational purposes 

only, and does not increase regulatory 

burden. Therefore, this technical 

amendment does not affect or change 

any existing rights or obligations, and 

no member of the regulated community 

is likely to object to it. In conclusion, 

OSHA finds good cause that the 

opportunity for public comment is 

unnecessary within the meaning of 5 

U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), 29 U.S.C. 655(b), 

and 29 CFR 1911.5.

Authority and Signature 

This document was prepared under 

the authority of David Michaels, PhD, 

MPH, Assistant Secretary of Labor for 

Occupational Safety and Health, U.S. 

Department of Labor, 200 Constitution 

Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20210, 

pursuant to Sections 6(b) of the 

Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970 (29 U.S.C. 655), Secretary of 

Labor’s Order 5–2007 (72 FR 31160), 

and 29 CFR part 1911. 

Signed at Washington, DC, on May 4, 2010. 

David Michaels, 

Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational 

Safety and Health. 

■ For the reasons set forth above in the 

preamble, OSHA is amending 29 CFR 

part 1926 as follows: 

PART 1926—[AMENDED] 

Subpart R—[Amended] 

■ 1. The authority citation for subpart R 

is revised to read as follows: 

Authority: Sec. 107, Contract Work Hours 

and Safety Standards Act (Construction 

Safety Act) (40 U.S.C. 333); Secs. 4, 6, and 

8, Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970 (29 U.S.C. 653, 655, 657); Secretary of 

Labor’s Order Nos. 3–2000 (65 FR 50017), 5– 

2002 (67 FR 65008), and 5–2007 (72 FR 

31160); and 29 CFR part 1911. 

■ 2. Amend § 1926.754 by adding a note 

after paragraph (a) to read as follows: 

§ 1926.754 Structural steel assembly. 

(a) * * * 

Note to paragraph (a): Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA) regulations 

incorporate by reference a number of 

standards, policies, and standard 

specifications published by the American 

Association of State Highway and 

Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and other 

organizations. (See 23 CFR 625.4). Many of 

these incorporated provisions may be 

relevant to maintaining structural stability 

during the erection process. For instance, as 

of May 17, 2010, in many cases FHWA 

requires a Registered Engineer to prepare and 

seal working drawings for falsework used in 

highway bridge construction. (See AASHTO 

Specifications for Highway Bridges, Div. II, 

§ 3.2.1, 15th edition, 1992, which FHWA 

incorporates by reference in 23 CFR 625.4). 

FHWA also encourages compliance with 

AASHTO Specifications that the FHWA 

regulations do not currently incorporate by 

reference. (See http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ 

bridge/lrfd/index.htm.)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Regulatory Information 

On April 1, 2010, we published a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

entitled ‘‘Special Local Regulations for 

Marine Events; Patapsco River, 

Northwest Harbor, Baltimore, MD’’ in 

the Federal Register (75 FR 16374). We 

received no comments on the proposed 

rule. No public meeting was requested, 

and none was held. 

Basis and Purpose 

On June 19, 2010, Baltimore Dragon 

Boat Club, Inc. will sponsor Dragon Boat 

Races in the Patapsco River, Northwest 

Harbor at Baltimore, MD. The event will 

consist of approximately 15 teams 

rowing Chinese Dragon Boats in heats of 

2 or 3 boats for a distance of 500 meters. 

Due to the need for vessel control 

during the event, the Coast Guard will 

temporarily restrict vessel traffic in the 

event area to provide for the safety of 

participants, spectators and other 

transiting vessels. 

Discussion of Comments and Changes 

The Coast Guard received no 

comments in response to the NPRM. No 

public meeting was requested and none 

was held. 

Regulatory Analyses 

We developed this rule after 

considering numerous statutes and 

executive orders related to rulemaking. 

Below we summarize our analyses 

based on 13 of these statutes or 

executive orders. 

Regulatory Planning and Review 

This rule is not a significant 

regulatory action under section 3(f) of 

Executive Order 12866, Regulatory 

Planning and Review, and does not 

require an assessment of potential costs 

and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that 

Order. The Office of Management and 

Budget has not reviewed it under that 

Order. Although this regulation will 

prevent traffic from transiting a portion 

of the Patapsco River during the event, 

the effect of this regulation will not be 

significant due to the limited duration 

that the regulated area will be in effect 

and the extensive advance notifications 

that will be made to the maritime 

community via the Local Notice to 

Mariners and marine information 

broadcasts, so mariners can adjust their 

plans accordingly. Additionally, the 

regulated area has been narrowly 

tailored to impose the least impact on 

general navigation yet provide the level 

of safety deemed necessary. Vessel 

traffic will be able to transit the 

regulated area at slow speed between 

heats, when the Coast Guard Patrol 

Commander deems it safe to do so. 

Small Entities 

Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act 

(5 U.S.C. 601–612), we have considered 

whether this rule would have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities. 

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
