4592 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 17 / Wednesday, January 27, 2016 / Rules and Regulations 

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 E.O. 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 

E.O. 13132. 

Also, this rule does not have tribal 

implications under E.O. 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. If you 

believe this rule has implications for 

federalism or Indian tribes, please 

contact the person listed in the FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section 

above. 

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 

Management Directive 023–01 and 

Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, 

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 an 

emergency safety measure limiting 

access to the area described as the 

Bayou Chene beginning at mile 130.0 on 

the Atchafalaya River extending north 

through the Bayou Chene and ending at 

Mile 85.0 of the Intercoastal Waterway. 

This emergency situation requires a 

safety zone lasting longer than one week 

so a preliminary environmental analysis 

checklist and a categorical exclusion 

determination are being prepared and 

will be made available as indicated 

under ADDRESSES. We seek any 

comments or information that may lead 

to the discovery of a significant 

environmental impact from this rule. 

G. Protest Activities 

The Coast Guard respects the First 

Amendment rights of protesters. 

Protesters are asked to contact 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

December 9, 2015, a Final Rule took 

effect significantly amending the 

Federal Maritime Commission’s 

regulations governing Ocean 

Transportation Intermediaries (OTIs). 

The Final Rule was published in the 

Federal Register on November 5, 2015, 

80 FR 68721. A section of the 

regulations in place prior to the Final 

Rule, 46 CFR 515.17, (‘‘Application after 

revocation or denial’’), was 

inadvertently deleted when the Final 

Rule was published. This correction reinserts the section content at 46 CFR 

515.18, and moves another section’s 

content to section 515.17 so that the 

regulations are in the proper order. 

This correction also fixes three minor 

typographical errors that were created in 

the course of production of the Code of 

Federal Regulations in 46 CFR 515.42 

and Appendix D to part 515. 

List of Subjects in 46 CFR Part 515

Acquisition Regulation (GSAR); 

Removal of Unnecessary Construction 

Clauses and Editorial Changes 

AGENCY: Office of Acquisition Policy,

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This final rule amends the 

General Services Administration 

Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) coverage 

on Construction and Architect-Engineer 

Contracts, including provisions and 

clauses for solicitations and resultant 

contracts, to remove unnecessary 

regulations. 

DATES: Effective: January 27, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The General Services Administration 

(GSA) published a proposed rule in the 

Federal Register at 80 FR 45498 on July 

30, 2015 to revise sections of GSAR Part 

536, Construction and ArchitectEngineer Contracts, and Part 552, 

Solicitation Provisions and Contract 

Clauses, to remove unnecessary 

construction clauses. No comments 

were received on the proposed rule. 

II. Discussion of Analysis 

No changes were made to the rule as 

there were no comments received. 

III. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 

Executive Orders (E.O.s) 12866 and 

13563 direct agencies to assess all costs 

and benefits of available regulatory 

alternatives and, if regulation is 

necessary, to select regulatory 

approaches that maximize net benefits 

(including potential economic, 

environmental, public health and safety 

effects, distributive impacts, and 

equity). E.O. 13563 emphasizes the 

importance of quantifying both costs 

and benefits, of reducing costs, of 

harmonizing rules, and of promoting 

flexibility. This is not a significant 

regulatory action and, therefore, was not 

subject to review under Section 6(b) of 

E.O. 12866, Regulatory Planning and 

Review, dated September 30, 1993. This 

rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 

804. 

IV. Regulatory Flexibility Act 

GSA does not expect this final rule to 

have a significant economic impact on 

a substantial number of small entities 

within the meaning of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act, at 5 U.S.C. 601, et.seq., 

because the rule only deletes 

unnecessary sections and clauses and 

does not contain substantive changes. 

However, a Final Regulatory Flexibility 

Analysis (FRFA) has been prepared. 

There were no comments submitted in 

response to the initial regulatory flexibility 

analysis provided in the proposed rule. The 

final rule changes will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial number of 

small entities. The rule changes do not place 

any new requirements on small entities. The 

section, provision and clause associated with 

project labor agreement is no longer a 

requirement based on Executive Order 13202 

and because Executive Order 13502 was 

incorporated into FAR Subpart 22.5. The 

provisions and associated clauses for 

specialist, working hours, use of premises, 

measurements, samples, heat, and 

government use of equipment are considered 

technical requirements that are contained in 

the scope of work or specifications.
