SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Public Meeting 

We do not now plan to hold a public 

meeting. But you may submit a request 

for a meeting by writing to Commander, 

Coast Guard Sector Buffalo at the 

address under ADDRESSES explaining 

why one would be beneficial. If we 

determine that one would aid this 

rulemaking, we will hold one at a time 

and place announced by a later notice 

in the Federal Register. 

Background and Purpose 

This proposed rule will remove from 

table 1 found in 33 CFR 100.901, Great 

Lakes annual marine events, all entries 

under Group Buffalo, N.Y. These events 

no longer occur annually or are not 

regattas or marine parades. This 

proposed rule will also add new 

sections not previously listed in 33 CFR 

Part 100. The new sections are: 

§ 100.926 Syracuse Hydrofest, Syracuse, 

N.Y.; § 100.927 Swim the Bay, Presque 

Isle Bay, Erie, PA; § 100.928 Carly’s 

Crossing, Lake Erie, Buffalo, N.Y.; 

§ 100.929 Thunder on the Niagara, 

Niagara River, North Tonawanda, N.Y.; 

and § 100.930 Antique Boat Show, 

Niagara River, Grand Island, N.Y. 

Discussion of Proposed Rule 

The proposed rule is necessary to 

ensure the safety of vessels and people 

during annual regattas and marine 

parades in the Captain of the Port 

Buffalo area of responsibility that may 

pose a hazard to the public. This rule 

proposes the removal of regulations 

currently published in 33 CFR part 

100.901 under Group Buffalo and adds 

new events never before published in 

the CFR. 

The proposed safety zones will be 

enforced only immediately before, 

during, and after events that pose 

hazard to the public, and only upon 

notice by the Captain of the Port. 

The Captain of the Port will inform 

the public about the details of each 

regatta or marine parade covered by 

these special local regulations using a 

variety of means, including, but is not 

limited to, Broadcast Notices to 

Mariners and Local Notices to Mariners. 

The Captain of the Port will issue a 

Broadcast Notice to Mariners notifying 

the public when enforcement of the 

special local regulation for each event is 

terminated. 

Regulatory Evaluation 

This proposed 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. 

We expect the economic impact of 

this proposed rule to be so minimal that 

a full Regulatory Evaluation is 

unnecessary. 

The Coast Guard’s use of these special 

local regulations will be periodic in 

nature, of short duration, and designed 

to minimize the impact on navigable 

waters. These special local regulations 

will only be enforced immediately 

before and during the time the marine 

events are occurring. Furthermore, these 

special local regulations have been 

designed to allow vessels to transit 

portions of the waterways not affected 

by the special local regulations. The 

Coast Guard expects insignificant 

adverse impact to mariners from the 

activation of these special local 

regulations. 

Small Entities 

Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act 

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

whether this proposed 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 proposed rule 

would not have a significant economic 

impact on a substantial number of small 

entities. 

This proposed rule would affect the 

following entities, some of which might 

be small entities: The owners of 

operators of vessels intending to transit 

or anchor in the areas designated as 

special local regulations in paragraphs 

(4) through (13) during the dates and 

times the special local regulations are 

being enforced. 

These special local regulations would 

not have a significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small entities 

for the following reasons. The special 

local regulations in this proposed rule 

would be in effect for short periods of 

time, and only once per year. The 

special local regulations have been 

designed to allow traffic to pass safely 

around the zone whenever possible and 

vessels will be allowed to pass through 

the zones with the permission of the 

Captain of the Port. 

If you think that your business, 

organization, or governmental 

jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity 

and that this proposed 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 proposed rule would economically 

affect it. 

Assistance for Small Entities 

Under section 213(a) of the Small 

Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act of 1996 (Public Law 104– 

121), we want to assist small entities in 

understanding this proposed rule so that 

they can better evaluate its effects on 

them and participate in the rulemaking. 

If the proposed rule would affect your 

small business, organization, or 

governmental jurisdiction and you have 

questions concerning its provisions or 

options for compliance, please contact 

CDR Joseph Boudrow, Prevention Dept. 

Chief, Sector Buffalo, 1 Fuhrmann 

Blvd., Buffalo, NY 14203; 716–843– 

9385. 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. 

Collection of Information 

This proposed 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, 

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 proposed 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 or more in any one year. 

Though this proposed rule will not 

result in such expenditure, we 

nevertheless discuss its effects 

elsewhere in this preamble. 


erowe on PROD1PC63 with PROPOSALS-1
27480 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 110 / Wednesday, June 10, 2009 / Proposed Rules 

Taking of Private Property 

This proposed rule will not affect the 

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 proposed 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 proposed rule 

under Executive Order 13045, 

Protection of Children from 

Environmental Health Risks and Safety 

Risks. This proposed 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 

The Coast Guard recognizes the treaty 

rights of Native American Tribes. 

Moreover, the Coast Guard is committed 

to working with Tribal Governments to 

implement local policies and to mitigate 

tribal concerns. We have determined 

that these safety zones and fishing rights 

protection need not be incompatible. 

We have also determined that this 

proposed 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. 

Nevertheless, Indian Tribes that have 

questions concerning the provisions of 

this proposed rule or options for 

compliance are encouraged to contact 

the point of contact listed under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. 

Energy Effects 

We have analyzed this proposed 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 proposed rule does not use 

technical standards. Therefore, we did 

not consider the use of voluntary 

consensus standards. 

Environment 

We have analyzed this proposed rule 

under Commandant Instruction 

M16475.lD and Department of 

Homeland Security Management 

Directive 023–01, which guide the Coast 

Guard in complying with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 

(NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f), and 

have made a preliminary determination 

that this action is not likely to have a 

significant effect on the human 

environment. An environmental 

analysis checklist supporting this 

preliminary determination is available 

in the docket where indicated under 

ADDRESSES. We seek any comments or 

information that may lead to the 

discovery of a significant environmental 

impact from this proposed rule.
