[Docket No. USCG–2017–1012] 

Drawbridge Operation Regulation; 

China Basin, San Francisco, CA 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of deviation from 

drawbridge regulation. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard has issued a 

temporary deviation from the operating 

schedule that governs the 3rd Street 

Drawbridge across China Basin, mile 0.0 

at San Francisco, CA. The deviation is 

necessary to allow participants to cross 

the bridge during the Leukemia 

Lymphoma Society Light the Night 

Walk. This deviation allows the bridge 

to remain in the closed-to-navigation 

position during the deviation period. 

DATES: This deviation is effective from 

6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on November 16, 2017. 

ADDRESSES: The docket for this

Guard District; telephone 510–437–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The City 

of San Francisco has requested a 

temporary change to the operation of the 

3rd Street Drawbridge over China Basin, 

mile 0.0, at San Francisco, CA. The 

drawbridge navigation span provides a 

vertical clearance of 3 feet above Mean 

High Water in the closed-to-navigation 

position. The draw opens on signal if at 

least one hour notice is given, as 

required by 33 CFR 117.149. Navigation 

on the waterway is recreational. 

The drawspan will be secured in the 

closed-to-navigation position from 6 

p.m. to 9 p.m. on November 16, 2017, 

to allow participants to cross the bridge 

during the Leukemia Lymphoma 

Society Light the Night Walk. This 

temporary deviation has been 

coordinated with the waterway users. 

No objections to the proposed 

temporary deviation were raised. 

Vessels able to pass through the 

bridge in the closed position may do so 

at anytime. The bridge will be able to 

open for emergencies and there is no 

immediate alternate route for vessels to 

pass. The Coast Guard will also inform 

the users of the waterway through our 

Local and Broadcast Notices to Mariners 

of the change in operating schedule for 

the bridge so that vessel operators can 

arrange their transits to minimize any 

impact caused by the temporary 

deviation. 

In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), 

the drawbridge must return to its regular 

operating schedule immediately at the 

end of the effective period of this 

temporary deviation. This deviation 

from the operating regulations is 

authorized under 33 CFR 117.35. 

Dated: October 25, 2017.

NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking 

§ Section 

U.S.C. United States Code 

II. Background Information and 

Regulatory History 

The Coast Guard is issuing this 

temporary 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 and opportunity to 

comment 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 because doing 

so would be impracticable and contrary 

to the public interest. Immediate action 

is needed to respond to the potential 

safety hazards associated with a boat 

parade. The Coast Guard received 

information on October 5, 2017 

regarding the operations beginning on 

November 25, 2017. The operation 

would begin before the rulemaking 

process would be completed. Because of 

the dangers posed by the parade, the 

safety zone is necessary to provide for 

the safety of persons, vessels, and the 

marine environment in the event area. 

Therefore, it is impracticable and 

contrary to the public interest to delay 

promulgating this rule, as it is necessary 

to protect the safety of waterway users. 

Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast 

Guard finds that good cause exists for 

making this rule effective less than 30 

days after publication in the Federal 

Register. Delaying the effective date of 

this rule would be impracticable 

because immediate action is needed to 

respond to the potential safety hazards 

associated with the boat parade.
