Special Local Regulations and Safety Zones; Recurring Events in 
Captain of the Port Boston Zone

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to amend special local regulations 
(SLR) and to establish permanent safety zones in the Coast Guard Sector 
Boston Captain of the Port (COTP) Zone for annual recurring marine 
events. When these SLRs or safety zones are activated, and thus subject 
to enforcement, this rule would restrict persons and vessels from 
portions of waterway during annual events listed in TABLES 1 and 2 that 
pose a hazard to public safety. The revised SLRs and safety zones are 
proposed to reduce administrative overhead, expedite public 
notification of events, and to ensure the protection of the maritime 
public and event participants from the hazards associated with firework 
displays, boat races, and other marine events.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast 
Guard on or before July 28, 2011.
    Requests for public meetings must be received by the Coast Guard on 
or before July 5, 2011.

notice.

Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for the proposed rule is 33 U.S.C. 1226, 1231, 
1233; 46 U.S.C. Chapter 454, 701, 3306, 3703; 50 U.S.C. 191, 195; 
Public Law 107-295, 116 Stat. 2064; and Department of Homeland Security 
Delegation No. 0170.1, which collectively authorize the Coast Guard to 
define regulatory safety zones and SLRs.
    Marine events are annually held on a recurring basis on the 
navigable waters within the Coast Guard COTP Boston Zone. These events 
include fireworks displays, swim events, and other marine events. In 
the past, the Coast Guard has established SLRs, regulated navigation 
areas, and safety zones for these events on a case by case basis to 
ensure the protection of the maritime public and event participants 
from the hazards associated with these marine events. Issuing 
individual regulations annually has proved to be administratively 
cumbersome.
    This proposed rule will significantly relieve administrative 
overhead and consistently apprise the public in a timely manner through 
permanent publication in Title 33 of the Code of Federal Regulations. 
The TABLES in this proposed regulation list each recurring marine event 
requiring a regulated area as administered by the Coast Guard.
    By establishing a permanent regulation containing these events, the 
Coast Guard will eliminate the need to establish temporary rules for 
events that occur on an annual basis. This provides opportunity for the 
public to comment while limiting the unnecessary burden of continually 
establishing temporary rules every year.
    This rulemaking will amend, remove, and add regulations that better 
meet the Coast Guard's intended purpose of ensuring safety during these 
events.
    The Coast Guard has also identified a number of events in 33 CFR 
100 which would be more appropriately located in 33 CFR 165. This rule 
will amend local regulations contained in 33 CFR Part 100 to move 
firework displays to Part 165, a citation that better meets the Coast 
Guard's intended purpose of ensuring safety during these events.
    The Coast Guard has promulgated safety zones or SLRs for these 
areas in the past, and has not received public comments or concerns 
regarding the impact to waterway traffic from these annually recurring 
events.

Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The Coast Guard proposes to revise section 33 CFR 100.114, and to 
add sections 33 CFR 100.130, and 33 CFR 165.118. The proposed changes 
will remove nine outdated regulated areas and establish 43 new 
permanent regulated areas. The proposed rule will apply to each 
recurring marine event listed in the attached TABLES in the Coast Guard 
COTP Boston Zone. The TABLES provide the event name, sponsor, and type, 
as well as approximate dates and locations of the events. Additionally, 
the specific times, dates, regulated areas, and enforcement period for 
each event will be provided in a Notice of Enforcement published in the 
Federal Register and through Local Notice to Mariners (LNM) and 
Broadcast Notice to Mariners (BNTM) prior to each event. The particular 
size of the safety zones established for each event will be reevaluated 
on an annual basis in accordance with Navigational and Vessel 
Inspection Circular (NVIC) 07-02, Marine Safety at Firework Displays, 
the National Fire Protection Association Standard 1123, Code for 
Fireworks Displays (70-foot distance per inch of diameter of the 
fireworks mortars), and other pertinent regulations and publications.
    This proposed regulation would prevent persons and vessels from 
transiting areas specifically designated as SLRs or safety zones during 
the periods of enforcement to ensure the protection of the maritime 
public and event participants from the hazards associated with listed 
marine events. Only event sponsors, designated participants, and 
official patrol vessels will be allowed to enter safety zones and SLR 
areas. Spectators and other vessels not registered as event 
participants may not enter the regulated areas without the permission 
of the COTP or the designated representatives.

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 proposed 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, and does not require an 
assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of 
that

[[Page 37692]]

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 minimal. 
Although this regulation may have some impact on the public, the 
potential impact will be minimized for the following reasons: Vessels 
will only be restricted from safety zones and SLR areas for a short 
duration of time unless otherwise noted; vessels may transit in 
portions of the affected waterway except for those areas covered by the 
proposed safety zones; the Coast Guard has promulgated safety zones or 
SLRs in accordance with 33 CFR Parts 100 and 165 for all event areas in 
the past and has not received notice of any negative impact caused by 
any of the safety zones or SLRs; notifications will also be made to the 
local maritime community by LNM and BNTM well in advance of the events.
    The effect of this proposed action simply establishes locations or 
the approximate dates on which the existing regulations would be 
enforced and consolidates them within one regulation. No new or 
additional restrictions would be imposed on vessel traffic.

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 will affect the following entities, some of 
which may be small entities: owners or operators of vessels intending 
to transit, fish, or anchor in the areas where marine events are being 
held. For the reasons outlined in the Regulatory Planning and Review 
section above, this rule would not have a significant impact on a 
substantial number of small entities.
    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.

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 the 
rule would affect your small business, organization, or governmental 
jurisdiction and you have questions concerning its provisions or 
options for compliance, please contact PO David Labadie at the 
telephone number or e-mail address indicated under the FOR FURTHER 
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this notice. 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 would call 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 expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule 
elsewhere in this preamble.

Taking of Private Property

    This proposed rule would not cause a 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 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 would 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

[[Page 37693]]

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.
    A preliminary environmental analysis checklist supporting this 
determination is available in the docket where indicated under 
ADDRESSES. This proposed rule involves water activities including 
fireworks displays, swim events, and other marine events. This rule 
appears to be categorically excluded, under figure 2-1, paragraph 
(34)(h) of the Instruction.
    We seek any comments or information that may lead to the discovery 
of a significant environmental impact from this proposed rule.

    For the reasons discussed in the preamble, the Coast Guard proposes 
to amend 33 CFR Parts 100 and 165 as follows:

PART 100--SAFETY OF LIFE ON NAVIGABLE WATERS

    1. The authority citation for Part 100 continues to read as 
follows:

    Authority:  33 U.S.C. 1233.

    2. In Sec.   100.114, remove the following entries in the 
``Fireworks Display Table'' (along with the associated 
``Massachusetts'' titles) as follows: 100.114(5.1) including the Table 
heading for ``MAY'', 100.114(7.6), 100.114(7.7), 100.114(7.9), 
100.114(7.178), 100.114(7.23), 100.114(8.7), 100.114(9.1), 
100.114(12.1).
    3. Add a new Sec.  100.130 to read as follows:

Sec.  100.130  Special Local Regulations; Recurring Annual Marine 
Events in Sector Boston Captain of the Port Zone

    The following regulations apply to the marine events listed in 
TABLE 1. These regulations will be enforced for the duration of each 
event, on or about the dates indicated in TABLE 1. Annual notice of the 
exact dates and times of the effective period of the regulations with 
respect to each event, the geographical description of each regulated 
area, and details concerning the nature of the event and the number of 
participants and type(s) of vessels involved will be provided in a 
Notice of Enforcement published in the Federal Register and through 
Local Notice Mariners (LNM) and/or Broadcast Notice to Mariners prior 
to each event. Mariners should consult the Federal Register or their 
LNM to remain apprised of minor schedule or event changes. First Coast 
Guard District LNM can be found at: http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/. The 
Sector Boston Marine Events schedule can also be viewed electronically 
at http://www.homeport.uscg.mil. Although listed in the Code of Federal 
Regulations, sponsors of events listed in TABLE 1 are still required to 
submit a marine event permit application in accordance with 33 CFR 
100.15.
    (a) The Coast Guard may patrol each event area under the direction 
of a designated Coast Guard Patrol Commander (PATCOM). PATCOM may be 
contacted on Channel 16 VHF-FM (156.8 MHz) by the call sign ``PATCOM.'' 
Official patrol vessels may consist of any Coast Guard, Coast Guard 
Auxiliary, state, or local law enforcement vessels assigned or approved 
by the Captain of the Port, Sector Boston.
    (b) Vessels may not transit the regulated areas without PATCOM 
approval. Vessels permitted to transit must operate at a no wake speed, 
in a manner which will not endanger participants or other crafts in the 
event.
    (c) Spectators or other vessels shall not anchor, block, loiter, or 
impede the transit of event participants or official patrol vessels in 
the regulated areas during the effective dates and times, or dates and 
times as modified through LNM, unless authorized by an official patrol 
vessel.
    (d) PATCOM may control the movement of all vessels in the regulated 
area. When hailed or signaled by an official patrol vessel, a vessel 
shall come to an immediate stop and comply with the lawful directions 
issued. Failure to comply with a lawful direction may result in 
expulsion from the area, citation for failure to comply, or both.
    (e) PATCOM may delay or terminate any marine event in this subpart 
at any time it is deemed necessary to ensure the safety of life or 
property. Such action may be justified as a result of weather, traffic 
density, spectator operation or participant behavior.
    (f) For all power boat races listed, vessels operating within the 
regulated area must be at anchor within a designated spectator area or 
moored to a waterfront facility in a way that will not interfere with 
the progress of the event.
    (g) For all regattas, boat parades, and rowing and paddling boat 
races, vessels not associated with the event shall maintain a 
separation of at least 50 yards from the participants.

Pub. L. 107-295, 116 Stat. 2064; Department of Homeland Security 
Delegation No. 0170.1.

    5. Add a new Sec.  165.118 to read as follows:

Sec.  165.118  Safety Zones; Recurring Annual Events held in Coast 
Guard Sector Boston Captain of the Port Zone.

    The Coast Guard is establishing safety zones for the events listed 
in TABLE 2 below. These regulations will be enforced for the duration 
of each event, on or about the dates indicated in TABLE 2. Annual 
notice of the exact dates and times of the effective period of the 
regulations with respect to each event, the geographical description of 
each regulated area, and details concerning the nature of the event and 
the number of participants and type(s) of vessels involved will be 
provided in a Notice of Enforcement published in the Federal Register 
and through Local Notice Mariners (LNM) and/or Broadcast Notice to 
Mariners prior to each event. Mariners should consult the Federal 
Register or their LNM to remain apprised of minor schedule or event 
changes. First Coast Guard District LNM can be found at: http://
www.navcen.uscg.gov/. The Sector Boston Marine Events schedule can also 
be viewed electronically at: http://www.homeport.uscg.mil. Although 
listed in the Code of Federal Regulations, sponsors of events listed in 
TABLE 2 are still required to submit a marine event permit application 
each year in accordance with 33 CFR 100.15.
    (a) The Coast Guard may patrol each event area under the direction 
of a designated Coast Guard Patrol Commander. The Patrol Commander may 
be contacted on Channel 16 VHF-FM (156.8 MHz) by the call sign 
``PATCOM.'' Official patrol vessels may consist of any Coast Guard, 
Coast Guard Auxiliary, state, or local law enforcement vessels assigned 
or approved by the Captain of the Port, Sector Boston.
    (b) Vessels may not transit the regulated areas without Patrol 
Commander approval. Vessels permitted to transit must operate at a no 
wake speed, in a manner which will not endanger participants or other 
crafts in the event.
    (c) Spectators or other vessels shall not anchor, block, loiter, or 
impede the movement of event participants or official patrol vessels in 
the regulated areas during the effective dates and times, or dates and 
times as modified through the LNM, unless authorized by an official 
patrol vessel.
    (d) The Patrol Commander may control the movement of all vessels in 
the regulated area. When hailed or signaled by an official patrol 
vessel, a vessel shall come to an immediate stop and comply with the 
lawful directions issued. Failure to comply with a lawful direction may 
result in expulsion from the area, citation for failure to comply, or 
both.
    (e) The Patrol Commander may delay or terminate any marine event in 
this subpart at any time it is deemed necessary to ensure the safety of 
life or property. Such action may be justified as a result of weather, 
traffic density, spectator operation or participant behavior.
    (f) For all fireworks displays listed below, the regulated area is 
that area of navigable waters within a 350-yard radius of the launch 
platform or launch site for each fireworks display, unless modified in 
the LNM at: http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/.
    (g) For all swimming events listed, vessels not associated with the 
event shall maintain a distance of at least 100 yards from the 
participants.
