Background and Purpose

    Currently, 33 CFR 165.929 lists seventy different locations in the 
Captain of the Port Lake Michigan zone at which safety zones have been 
permanently established. Each of these seventy safety zones corresponds 
to an annually recurring marine event. During an annual review of 33 
CFR 165.929 it was found that the details of two of the annually 
recurring events have changed. It was also determined that five 
additional recurring marine events require the implementation of 
permanent safety zones. This proposed rule will revise the enforcement 
date and time of two events and add five reccurring events that require 
safety zones. In addition, this proposed rule will revise the 
organizational structure of 33 CFR 165.929 so that the events will be 
listed numerically rather than alphabetically. Listing the events 
numerically is meant to make it easier for the public to identify the 
annual events requiring safety zones in the Captain of the Port Lake 
Michigan zone.

Discussion of Proposed Rule

    This proposed rule will amend the regulations found in 33 CFR 
165.929, Annual Events requiring safety zones in the Captain of the 
Port Lake Michigan zone. Specifically, this proposed rule will revise 
Sec.  165.929 in its entirety. The revision will include the 
modification of the name and enforcement period of one safety zone, the 
enforcement period of one safety zone, and the addition of five new 
safety zones. Each of the existing and proposed safety zones are 
necessary to protect vessels and people from the hazards associated 
with various maritime events. Such hazards include obstructions to the 
navigable channels, explosive dangers associated with various maritime 
events. Although this proposed rule will remain in effect year round, 
the safety zones within it will be enforced only immediately before, 
during, and after each corresponding marine event.
    The Captain of the Port Lake Michigan will use all appropriate 
means to notify the public when the zones in this proposal will be 
enforced. Consistent with 33 CFR 165.7(a), such means of may include, 
among other things, publication in the Federal Register and Broadcast 
Notice to Mariners or Local Notice to Mariners. The Captain of the Port 
will issue a Broadcast Notice to Mariners notifying the public when 
enforcement of a safety zone in this section is cancelled.
    Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within each of the below 
safety zone is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port 
Lake Michigan, or his designated representative. The Captain of the 
Port or his designated representative may be contacted via VHF Channel 
16.

Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed 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, as 
supplemented by Executive Order 13563, Improving Regulation and 
Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential 
costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that Executive Order 12866 
or under section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management 
and Budget has not reviewed it under those Orders. It is not 
``significant'' under the regulatory policies and procedures of the 
Department of Homeland Security (DHS). We conclude that this proposed 
rule is not a significant regulatory action because we anticipate that 
it will have minimal impact on the economy, will not interfere with 
other agencies, will not adversely alter the budget of any grant or 
loan recipients, and will not raise any novel legal or policy issues. 
The safety zones amended and established by this proposed rule will be 
relatively small and enforced for relatively short time. Also, each 
safety zone is designed to minimize its impact on navigable waters. 
Furthermore, each safety zone has been designed to allow vessels to 
transit unrestricted to portions of the waterways not affected by the 
safety zones. Thus, restrictions on vessel movements within that 
particular area are expected to be minimal. Under certain conditions, 
moreover, vessels may still transit through each safety zone when 
permitted by the Captain of the Port, Sector Lake Michigan. On the 
whole, the Coast Guard expects insignificant adverse impact to mariners 
from the activation of these safety zones.

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 and operators of vessels 
intending to transit or anchor in any one of the below safety zones 
while the safety zone is being enforced. The below safety zones will 
not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small 
entities for the following reasons: each safety zone in this proposed 
rule will be in effect for only a few hours within any given 24 hour 
period. Each of the safety zones will be in effect only once per

[[Page 11428]]

year. Furthermore, these safety zones have been designed to allow 
traffic to pass safely around each zone. Moreover, vessels will be 
allowed to pass through each zone at the discretion of the Captain of 
the Port, Sector Lake Michigan, or his or her designated 
representative.
    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 rule would economically affect it.

Assistance for Small Entities

    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 so that they can better 
evaluate its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking. If this 
proposed rule would affect your small business, organization, or 
governmental jurisdiction and you have questions concerning its 
provisions or options for compliance, please contact BM1 Adam Kraft, 
Prevention Department, Coast Guard Sector Lake Michigan, Milwaukee, WI 
at (414) 747-7154. 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 (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 
proposed rule elsewhere in this preamble.

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 
would not create an environmental risk to health or risk to safety that 
might disproportionately affect children.

Indian Tribal Governments

    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.

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 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 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 the establishing of security zones and therefore, is 
categorically excluded under paragraph 34(g) of the Instruction. A 
preliminary 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.

List of Subjects in 33 CFR Part 165
