II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    Swim events, fireworks displays, and 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 special local regulations and safety zones for 
some of these annual recurring events on a case by case basis to ensure 
the protection of the maritime public and event participants from 
potential hazards. In the past, the Coast Guard has not received public 
comments or concerns regarding the impact to waterway traffic from 
regulations associated with these annually recurring events. Events 
were either added or deleted to the table of annual events based on 
their likelihood to recur in subsequent years. Additionally, minor 
changes to existing events such as position, date, or title, were made 
to ensure the accuracy of event details.
    On April 21, 2020, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed 
rulemaking (NPRM) titled Special Local Regulations and Safety Zones; 
Coast Guard Sector Long Island Sound Annual and Recurring Safety Zone 
and Special Local Regulation Update (85 FR 22049). There we stated why 
we issued the NPRM and invited comments on our proposed regulatory 
action. During the comment period that ended on May 21, 2020, we 
received five comments.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard issues this rulemaking under authority in 46 U.S.C. 
70034 (previously 33 U.S.C. 1231). The COTP Sector Long Island Sound is 
amending 33 CFR 100.100 Special Local Regulations; Regattas and Boat 
Races in the Coast Guard Sector Long Island Sound Captain of the Port 
Zone, Table to Sec.  100.100 and 33 CFR 165.151 Safety Zones; Fireworks 
Displays, Air Shows, and Swim Events in the Captain of the Port Long 
Island Sound Zone, Table to Sec.  165.151.
    The marine events listed therein include air shows, fireworks 
displays, and other marine related events requiring a limited access 
area restricting vessel traffic for safety purposes. The amendments to 
the tables will more accurately reflect the dates of marine events 
based on historical occurrences.
    The rule applies to the annual recurring events listed in the Table 
to 100.100 and Table 165.151 in 33 CFR. The tables provide the event 
name and the locations of the events. Notifications will be made to the 
local maritime community through all appropriate means such as Local 
Notice to Mariners and Broadcast Notice to Mariners well in advance of 
the events. If the event does not have a date listed, then exact dates 
and times of the enforcement period will be announced through a Notice 
of Enforcement in the Federal Register.
    This rule expands date ranges for marine events listed in 33 CFR 
parts 100 and 165 with the goal of significantly reducing the 
administrative burden on personnel. This rule is also removes four 
marine events from 33 CFR 165.151.

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule

    As noted above, we received five comments on our NPRM published 
April 21, 2020. There are no changes in the regulatory text of this 
rule from the proposed rule in the NPRM.
    Two comments were general questions regarding the marking of 
fireworks safety zones. This rule expands the date ranges for events 
that are published in 33 CFR parts 100 and 165. In past years, some of 
these events fell outside the date range published in the CFR. In those 
circumstances, the Coast Guard would have to publish a temporary rule 
in the Federal Register with the revised date. Making these changes 
will better align the date ranges with the events and will also reduce 
the Coast Guard's administrative burden associated with publishing a 
temporary

[[Page 38069]]

rule to reflect the revised date. Each marine event will have its own 
safety plan which will require the Coast Guard's review and validation. 
Each safety plan validated within the Sector Long Island Sound COTP 
Zone is unique to the individual event for which it has been submitted. 
Each event, therefore, will have individual methods and rules for 
marking boundaries, routes, and ensuring safe areas for their 
respective events.
    A third comment questioned the mechanism for notifying the public 
of enforcement dates and the process for reviewing marine events and 
also communicated concerns related to COVID-19 and the associated 
challenges. This rule merely amends the date range for specific events 
listed in 33 CFR part 100 and 165. It is not a confirmation that the 
event will actually take place. For all marine events, including those 
listed in the CFR, the event sponsor is required to submit a marine 
event application. The Coast Guard reviews and considers each 
application individually and maintains the authority to approve or 
disapprove each event based on available and relevant information 
regardless of the event's listing in the CFR. If and when a marine 
event application is approved, the Coast Guard notifies the public of 
the event by a Broadcast Notice to Mariners, Local Notice to Mariners, 
and/or by Notice of Enforcement.
    A fourth comment questioned the Coast Guard's consideration of 
small entities in the development of this rule. As stated above, this 
rule changes the date range only for specific events, all of which have 
already undergone the process of public review and notification. The 
regulations' effect on small entities was considered during the 
original comment period for each event.
    A fifth comment was not relevant to this rulemaking.

V. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this 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. Executive Order 13771 directs agencies to control 
regulatory costs through a budgeting process. This rule has not been 
designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order 
12866. Accordingly, this rule has not been reviewed by the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt 
from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
    This regulatory action determination is based on the revisions only 
being administrative in nature.

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 received no comments from the Small Business 
Administration on this rulemaking. The Coast Guard certifies under 5 
U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule will not have a significant economic 
impact on a substantial number of small entities.
    This rule is amending 33 CFR 100 and 165. The amendments in 
question will have no impact on any small businesses outside of those 
already noted (if any) in previous rulemaking. To ensure the public is 
aware of the enforcement of the any regulations, the Coast Guard will 
issue a notice of the time and location of each regulated area through 
a Notice of Enforcement, Local Notice to Mariners, or Broadcast Notice 
to Mariners, as appropriate.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal 
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal 
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory 
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory 
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and 
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to 
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR 
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small 
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or 
action of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This rule will 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 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 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.

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 rule will not result in 
such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere 
in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this 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 determined 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 rule involves special 
local regulations for various one-day marine events and safety zones 
for fireworks displays and one day swimming events. Normally such 
actions are categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 
L60 of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, 
Rev. 01. A Memorandum for Record of Environmental Consideration 
supporting this determination is

[[Page 38070]]

available in the docket where indicated under ADDRESSES.

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.
