Regulatory Information 

The Coast Guard is issuing this 

temporary interim rule without prior 

notice and opportunity to comment 

pursuant to authority under section 4(a) 

of the Administrative Procedure Act 

(APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision 

authorizes an agency to issue a rule 

without prior notice when the agency 

for good cause finds that those 

procedures are ‘‘impracticable, 

unnecessary, or contrary to the public 

interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the 

Coast Guard finds that good cause exists 

for not publishing a notice of proposed 

rulemaking (NPRM) with respect to this 

rule. It is impractical to issue a NPRM 

and take public comment before July 

3rd, 2010 when the first marine event 

necessitating a safety zone is scheduled 

to occur. Further, it is contrary to public 

interest to delay the effective date of this 

rule or to delay or cancel the scheduled 

events. Delaying the effective date by 

first publishing a NPRM would be 

contrary to the rule’s objectives of 

ensuring safety of life on the navigable 

waters during these scheduled events as 

immediate action is needed to protect 

persons and vessels from the hazards 

associated with vessels participating in 

regattas, powerboat races, swim events 

and parades as well as the hazardous 

nature of fireworks including 

unexpected detonation and burning 

debris. We are requesting public 

comment on the safety zones, and if we 

receive public input that indicates a 

need to revise the safety zone 

regulations or the conditions they 

impose, or raises any other significant 

public concerns, we will address those 

concerns prior to issuing any final rule. 

Basis and Purpose 

Marine events are frequently held on 

the navigable waters within the area of 

responsibility for Captain of the Port 

Sector Northern New England. These 

events include sailing regattas, swim 

events, power boat races, row and 

paddle boat races, parades, and firework 

displays. Based on the nature of the 

events, large number of participants and 

spectators, and the event locations, the 

Coast Guard has determined that the 

events listed in this rule could pose a 

risk to participants or waterway users if 

normal vessel traffic were to interfere 

with the event. Possible hazards include 

risks of participant injury or death 

resulting from near or actual contact 

with non-participant vessels traversing 

through the safety zones. In order to 

protect the safety of all waterway users 

including event participants and 

spectators, this temporary rule 

establishes safety zones for the time and 

location of each event. 

This rule prevents vessels from 

entering, transiting, mooring or 

anchoring within areas specifically 

designated as safety zones during the 

periods of enforcement unless 

authorized by the Captain of the Port, or 

designated on-scene patrol personnel. 

‘‘Designated on-scene patrol personnel’’ 

are any Coast Guard commissioned, 

warrant, or petty officer who has been 

designated by the Captain of the Port to 

act on his behalf. On-scene patrol 

personnel may be comprised of local, 

state or federal officials authorized to 

act in support of the Coast Guard. 

The Coast Guard has ordered safety 

zones or special local regulations for all 

of these 51 areas for past events and has 

not received public comments or 

concerns regarding the impact to 

waterway traffic from these annual 

events. 

Discussion of Rule 

This temporary rule creates safety 

zones for all navigable waters within the 

described area of each event as follows: 

a 350 yard safety zone around all 

firework displays, a 200 foot safety zone 

around all swim event routes, and a 50 

yard safety zone around all power boat 

races, row and paddle boat races, and 

regattas. 

The tables below summarize the 

safety zone size that applies to each 

event along with the event name, date, 

time, and location:

As large numbers of spectator vessels 

are expected to congregate around the 

location of these events, the safety zones 

are needed to protect both spectators 

and participants from the safety hazards 

created by the event. During the 

enforcement period of the safety zones, 

persons and vessels are prohibited from 

entering, transiting through, remaining, 

anchoring or mooring within the zone 

unless specifically authorized by the 

Captain of the Port or his designated 

representatives. The Coast Guard may 

be assisted by other federal, state and 

local agencies in the enforcement of 

these safety zones. 

The Coast Guard determined that 

these safety zones will not have a 

significant impact on vessel traffic due 

to their temporary nature and limited 

size and the fact that vessels are allowed 

to transit the navigable waters outside of 

the safety zones. 

Advanced public notifications will 

also be made to the local maritime 

community by the Local Notice to 

Mariners as well as Broadcast Notice to 

Mariners. 

Regulatory Analyses 

We developed this interim 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. 

The Coast Guard determined that this 

rule is not a significant regulatory action 

for the following reasons: The safety 

zones will be of limited duration, they 

cover only a small portion of the 

navigable waterways, and the events are 

designed to avoid, to the extent 

possible, deep draft, fishing, and 

recreational boating traffic routes. In 

addition, vessels requiring entry into the 

area of the safety zones may be 

authorized to do so by the Captain of the 

Port. 

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 

governmental jurisdictions with 

populations of less than 50,000. 

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. 

This rule will affect the following 

entities, some of which may be small 

entities: the owners or operators of 

vessels intending to transit or anchor in 

the designated safety zones during the 

enforcement periods stated for each 

event in the List of Subjects. 

The safety zones will not have a 

significant economic impact on a 

substantial number of small entities for 

the following reasons: The safety zones 

will be of limited size and of short 

duration, and vessels that can safely do 

so may navigate in all other portions of 

the waterways except for the areas 

designated as safety zones. 

Additionally, before the effective 

period, the Coast Guard will issue 

notice of the time and location of each 

safety zone through a Local Notice to 

Mariners and Broadcast Notice to 

Mariners. 

Assistance for Small Entities 

Under section 213(a) of the Small 

Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–121), 

we offer to assist small entities in 

understanding the rule so that they can 

better evaluate its effects on them and 

participate in the rulemaking process. 

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. 

Collection of Information 

This rule calls for no new collection 

of information under the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501– 

3520). 

Federalism 

A rule has implications for federalism 

under Executive Order 13132, 


srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 109 / Tuesday, June 8, 2010 / Rules and Regulations 32285 

Federalism, if it has a substantial direct 

effect on State or local governments and 

would either preempt State law or 

impose a substantial direct cost of 

compliance on them. We have analyzed 

this rule under that Order and have 

determined that it does not have 

implications for federalism. 

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. 

Taking of Private Property 

This rule will not cause a taking of 

private property or otherwise have 

taking implications under Executive 

Order 12630, Governmental Actions and 

Interference with Constitutionally 

Protected Property Rights. 

Civil Justice Reform 

This rule meets applicable standards 

in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of Executive 

Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to 

minimize litigation, eliminate 

ambiguity, and reduce burden. 

Protection of Children 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Executive Order 13045, Protection of 

Children from Environmental Health 

Risks and Safety Risks. This rule is not 

an economically significant rule and 

does not create an environmental risk to 

health or risk to safety that may 

disproportionately affect children. 

Indian Tribal Governments 

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. 

Energy Effects 

We have analyzed this rule under 

Executive Order 13211, Actions 

Concerning Regulations That 

Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 

Distribution, or Use. We have 

determined that it is not a ‘‘significant 

energy action’’ under that order because 

it is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ 

under Executive Order 12866 and is not 

likely to have a significant adverse effect 

on the supply, distribution, or use of 

energy. The Administrator of the Office 

of Information and Regulatory Affairs 

has not designated it as a significant 

energy action. Therefore, it does not 

require a Statement of Energy Effects 

under Executive Order 13211. 

Technical Standards 

The National Technology Transfer 

and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 

U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use 

voluntary consensus standards in their 

regulatory activities unless the agency 

provides Congress, through the Office of 

Management and Budget, with an 

explanation of why using these 

standards would be inconsistent with 

applicable law or otherwise impractical. 

Voluntary consensus standards are 

technical standards (e.g., specifications 

of materials, performance, design, or 

operation; test methods; sampling 

procedures; and related management 

systems practices) that are developed or 

adopted by voluntary consensus 

standards bodies. 

This rule does not use technical 

standards. Therefore, we did not 

consider the use of voluntary consensus 

standards. 

Environment 

We have analyzed this temporary rule 

under Department of Homeland 

Security Management Directive 023–01 

and Commandant Instruction 

M16475.lD, which guide the Coast 

Guard in complying with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 

(NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and 

have concluded 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 is categorically 

excluded, under figure 2–1, paragraph 

(34)(g), of the Instruction as this rule 

involves establishing safety zones. An 

environmental analysis checklist and a 

categorical exclusion determination are 

available in the docket where indicated 

under ADDRESSES. Any comments 

received concerning environmental 

impacts will be considered and changes 

made to the environmental analysis 

checklist, categorical exclusion 

determination, and this rulemaking as 

appropriate.

(d) Enforcement Period. This section 

will be enforced for the duration of each 

event indicated in the table above. If the 

event is cancelled due to inclement 

weather, this section is in effect for the 

day following the scheduled time listed 

in the table above or as indicated in the 

Local Notice to Mariners. Notification of 

events held on a rain date will be made 

by Broadcast Notice to Mariners. 

(e) Regulations. (1) The general 

regulations contained in 33 CFR 165.23 

apply. During the enforcement period, 

entry into, transiting through, 

remaining, mooring or anchoring within 

these safety zones is prohibited unless 

authorized by the Captain of the Port or 

his designated representatives. 

(2) These temporary safety zones are 

closed to all vessel traffic, except as may 

be permitted by the Captain of the Port 

or his designated representatives. Vessel 

operators given permission to enter or 

operate in the safety zones must comply 

with all directions given to them by the 

Captain of the Port or his designated 

representatives. Vessels that are granted 

permission to enter or remain within a 

safety zone may be required to be at 

anchor or moored to a waterfront facility 

such that the vessel’s location will not 

interfere with the progress of the event. 

At all times when a vessel has been 

granted permission to enter within a 

safety zone, it shall endeavor to 

maintain at least 50 yards distance from 

any event participant unless otherwise 

directed. 

(3) The ‘‘designated representative’’ is 

any Coast Guard commissioned, warrant 

or petty officer who has been designated 

by the Captain of the Port to act on his 

behalf. The on-scene representative may 

be on a Coast Guard vessel, a state or 

local law enforcement vessel, or other 

designated craft, or may be on shore and 

will communicate with vessels via 

VHF–FM radio or loudhailer. In 

addition, members of the Coast Guard 

Auxiliary may be present to inform 

vessel operators of this regulation. 

(4) Vessel operators desiring to enter 

or operate within the safety zones shall 

request permission to do so by 

contacting the Captain of the Port Sector 

Northern New England at 207–767– 

0303, or via VHF Channel 16. 

(5) The Captain of the Port or his 

designated representative may direct the 

delay, cancellation, or relocation of the 

specific area to be regulated within the 

generally described locations listed in 

the EVENTS TABLE above to ensure 

safety and compliance with 

environmental laws. Such changes in 

implementation of the safety zones may 

be required as a result of factors that 

could affect their associated marine 

events such as weather, vessel traffic 

density, spectator activities, participant 

behavior or potential environmental 

impacts.

AGENCY: Department of Veterans Affairs. 

ACTION: Correcting amendment. 

SUMMARY: This document corrects the 

Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) 

regulation that governs nonduplication 

of the payment of benefits to the child 

of a veteran. This correction is required 

in order to amend a cross reference in 

the regulation. No substantive change to 

the content of the regulations is being 

made by this correcting amendment.

and Management (02REG), Department 

of Veterans Affairs, 810 Vermont Ave., 

NW., Washington, DC 20420, (202) 461–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VA 

published a final rule in the Federal 

Register on September 30, 1997, at 62 

FR 51274, amending 38 CFR 3.503, by 

redesignating paragraphs (a) through (j) 

as paragraphs (a)(1) through (a)(10), 

respectively. Therefore, § 3.503(h) 

became § 3.503(a)(8). However, VA 

neglected to amend the cross reference 

to § 3.503(h) in 38 CFR 21.3023 to 

reflect this change. This document 

corrects this error by removing ‘‘See 

§ 3.503(h)’’ and adding the correct 

citation in its place, ‘‘See § 3.503(a)(8)’’.

§ 21.3023 [Corrected] 

■ 2. In the cross reference to § 21.3023, 

remove ‘‘See § 3.503(h)’’ and add, in its 

place, ‘‘See § 3.503(a)(8)’’.
