AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is proposing 

to add one safety zone for the Dolan 

Family Labor Day Fireworks event on 

Oyster Bay, NY, and remove six other 

annual recurring marine events in Coast 

Guard Sector Long Island Sound’s 

Captain of the Port Zone. This proposed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Table of Abbreviations 

CFR Code of Federal Regulations 

COTP Captain of the Port 

DHS Department of Homeland Security 

FR Federal Register 

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking 

§ Section 

U.S.C. United States Code 

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal 

Basis 

Marine events are held on an annual 

recurring basis on the navigable waters 

within the Coast Guard Sector Long 

Island Sound Captain of the Port (COTP) 

Zone. The Coast Guard has established 

safety zones for some of these annually 

recurring events on a case by case basis 

to ensure the protection of the maritime 

public and event participants from 

potential hazards. 

Regulations establishing safety zones 

to restrict vessel traffic are located in 

part 165 of Title 33 of the Code of 

Federal Regulations. Section 165.151 in 

part 165 establishes safety zones to 

ensure the safety and security of marine 

related events, participants, and 

spectators in Sector Long Island Sound’s 

area of responsibility. The COTP of 

Long Island Sound proposes to amend 

Table 1 and 2 of 33 CFR 165.151 Safety 

Zones; Fireworks Displays, Air Shows, 

and Swim Events in the COTP Long 

Island Zone because updating the 

recurring events will considerably 

reduce administrative overhead and 

provide the public with notice through 

publication in the Federal Register of 

the upcoming recurring safety zone. 

The Secretary of Homeland Security 

has delegated to the Coast Guard 

authority under section 70041 of Title 

46 of the U.S. Code (46 U.S.C. 70041) to 

issue these regulations. 

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule 

The Coast Guard proposes to establish 

a safety zone for the annual Dolan 

Family Labor Day Fireworks event by 

adding this event to Table 1 to CFR 

165.151. The event would occur on a 

single day in September at a time to be 

determined. The regulated area would 

encompass waters of Long Island Sound 

off of Oyster Bay, NY. When enforced 

on the single day in September each 

year, this safety zone would restrict 

vessels from transiting the regulated 

area. The specific proposed description 

of this proposed regulation appears at 

the end of this document. 

Additionally, this rulemaking 

proposes to update Table 1 and 2 to CFR 

165.151 by removing six events that no 

longer take place. The Coast Guard 

proposes to remove event 5.1 Jones 

Beach Air Show safety zone from Table 

1 and remove five events from Table 2: 

(1) 1.1 Swim Across the Sound; (2) 1.3 

Maggie Fischer Memorial Great South 

Bay Cross Bay Swim; (3) 1.4 Waves of 

Hope Swim; (4) 1.5 Stonewall Swim; 

and (5) 1.6 Swim Across America 

Greenwich safety zones. 

IV. Regulatory Analyses 

We developed this proposed 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 NPRM has not been designated a 

‘‘significant regulatory action,’’ under 

Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, 

the NPRM has not been reviewed by the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB). 

This regulatory action determination 

is based on the size, location, duration, 

and time-of-day of the established safety 

zones. Moreover, the Coast Guard would 

issue a Broadcast Notice to Mariners vis 

VHF–FM marine channel 16 about the 

safety zone and the rule would allow 

vessels to seek permission to enter the 

area. Vessel traffic would also be able to 

request permission from the COTP or a 

designated representative to enter the 

restricted area. 

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 certifies under 5 U.S.C. 

605(b) that this proposed rule would not 

have a significant economic impact on 

a substantial number of small entities. 

While some owners or operators of 

vessels intending to transit the safety 

zone may be small entities, for the 

reasons stated in section IV.A above, 

this proposed rule would not have a 

significant economic impact on any 

vessel owner or operator. 

If you think that your business, 

organization, or governmental 

jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity 

and that this rule would have a 

significant economic impact on it, 

please submit a comment (see 

ADDRESSES) explaining why you think it 

qualifies and how and to what degree 

this rule would economically affect it. 

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 proposed 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. The Coast 

Guard will not retaliate against small 

entities that question or complain about 

this proposed rule or any policy or 

action of the Coast Guard. 

C. Collection of Information 

This proposed rule would 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 proposed 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 proposed rule does not have 

tribal implications under Executive 

Order 13175 (Consultation and 

Coordination with Indian Tribal 

Governments) because it would not 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
31458 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 112 / Monday, June 14, 2021 / Proposed Rules 

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 proposed rule has 

implications for federalism or Indian 

tribes, please call or email the person 

listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT section. 

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 

proposed rule would not result in such 

an expenditure, we do discuss the 

effects of this rule elsewhere in this 

preamble. 

F. Environment 

We have analyzed this proposed 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 made a preliminary determination 

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 proposed 

rule involves adding and removing an 

annually recurring marine event in 

Table 1 in 33 CFR 165.151 and 

removing five recurring marine events 

from Table 2 in 33 CFR 165.151. 

Normally such actions are categorically 

excluded from further review under 

paragraph L60(a) and L60(b) of 

Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction 

Manual 023–01–001–01, Rev. 1. A 

preliminary 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. We seek any comments or 

information that may lead to the 

discovery of a significant environmental 

impact from this proposed rule. 

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. 

V. Public Participation and Request for 

Comments

essential to effective rulemaking, and 

will consider all comments and material 

received during the comment period.

LNG Liquified Natural Gas 

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking 

§ Section 

U.S.C. United States Code 

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal 

Basis 

On May 26, 2010 the Coast Guard 

published a Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking (NPRM) prosposing to, 

among other things, establish a security 

zone for the Sabine Pass LNG mooring 

basin located in Cameron Parish, LA 

while LNG carriers are moored at the 

facility. On October 22, 2010 the Coast 

Guard issued an interim rule for the 

proposed security zone and on January 

11, 2011 the Coast Guard published a 

final rule for the security zone. 

Sabine Pass LNG is constructing a 

second mooring basin adjacent to the 

first and the COTP has determined that 

enhanced security measures are 

necessary and requires extending the 

existing security zone to include the 

new mooring basin. 

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule 

The COTP is proposing to establish a 

permanent security zone in a new 

mooring basin at Sabine Pass LNG 

located in Cameron, LA. The security 

zone regulations would be the same as 

those in effect for the existing mooring 

basin, that is, it would exclude certain 

vessels from entering the basin 

whenever an LNG carrier is moored at 

the facility. No vessel or person would 

be permitted to enter the safety zone 

without obtaining permission from the 

COTP or a designated representative. 

Additionally, the Coast Guard proposes 

to improve the language describing the 

area and to correct a geographical error 

in the CFR. The regulatory text we are 

proposing appears at the end of this 

document. 

IV. Regulatory Analyses 

We developed this proposed 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 NPRM has not been designated a 

‘‘significant regulatory action,’’ under 

Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, 

the NPRM has not been reviewed by the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB). 

This regulatory action determination 

is based on the limited size and that the 

affected area does not hinder or delay 

regular vessel traffic. Certain vessels 

with business in the mooring basin will 

be authorized to enter. 

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.
