From November 9, 2011, throughNovember 16, 2011, the President of theUnited States, various foreigndignitaries, members of their officialparties, and other senior governmentofficials will be attending the 2011APEC conference in Honolulu, Hawaii.APEC is a multi-national association of economies and their senior leadershipfrom the Asia-Pacific region workingtogether to reduce trade barriers andfacilitate business interactions betweenmember nations. The conference islocated adjacent to U.S. navigablewaters in the Honolulu Captain of thePort Zone. Accordingly, the U.S. CoastGuard is establishing these securityzones in order to maintain optimumsecurity for this high visibility eventand to ultimately protect theparticipants of this event from allpossible threats associated with vesselsand persons in the water. Entry of persons or vessels into these securityzones will be prohibited unlessauthorized by the Captain of the Port(COTP) Honolulu.
Discussion of Temporary Interim Rule
This security zone temporary interimrule will be effective from 11 p.m. HSTon November 9, 2011 through 11 p.m.HST on November 16, 2011. Thissecurity zone covers four areas locatedwithin the Honolulu Captain of the PortZone (See 33 CFR 3.70–10)The first area is designated as theKo’olina Offshore Zone and covers allwaters creating a box shape,encompassed by a line extending 1500yards seaward from 21
″ N,158
″ W; to 21
″ W; then north to21
″ N, 158
″ W; thendue east to 21
″ W; then along theshoreline back to the starting point. TheKo’olina Offshore Zone does not includethe entrance of Barbers Point HarborChannel or the four lagoons adjacent tothe Ko’olina Resort. The Ko’olinaOffshore Zone will be enforced from 11p.m. HST on November 12, 2011, to 11p.m. HST on November 13, 2011.The second area is designated as theWest Waikiki Zone and includes allwaters creating a box-like shape offshoreof Waikiki Beach and is encompassed by a line connecting the followingpoints: Beginning at 21
″ N,157
″ W; then along theshoreline back to the starting point. TheWest Waikiki Zone includes theoffshore area adjacent to the HiltonHawaiian Village Resort and the FortDeRussy military reservation. The WestWaikiki Zone does not include the twolagoons adjacent to the Hilton HawaiianVillage Resort. The West Waikiki Zonewill be enforced from 11 p.m. HST onNovember 9, 2011 to 11 p.m. HST onNovember 16, 2011.A third area is designated as the EastWaikiki Zone and includes all waterscreating a box-like shape offshore of Waikiki Beach and is encompassed by aline connecting the following points: beginning at 21
″ W; then along theshoreline back to the starting point. TheEast Waikiki Zone includes the offshorearea adjacent to the Sheraton WaikikiHotel and the Outrigger Waikiki Hotel.The East Waikiki Zone will be enforcedfrom 12 a.m. HST to 11 p.m. HST onNovember 12, 2011.A fourth area is designated as the AlaWai Harbor and Canal Zone. It includesa section of the Ala Wai Canal extendingfrom the entrance to the canal in AlaWai harbor to a point 15 yards northeastof the McCully Bridge and also includesall Ala Wai Harbor waters encompassingthe Harbor Working Docks, the ‘‘FrontRow’’ along Holomoana Ave, theLoading Dock, G Dock, F Dock, the 400Row, the south face of X Dock and DDock.

graphical representation of the foursecurity zones discussed above that areestablished by this temporary interimrule.In accordance with the generalregulations in 33 CFR part 165, subpartD, no person or vessel will be permittedto transit into or remain in the zoneexcept for those authorized supportvessels, aircraft and support personnel,or other personnel or vessels authorized by the Captain of the Port or the DistrictCommander. Any Coast Guardcommissioned, warrant, or petty officer,or other Captain of the Portrepresentative permitted by law, mayenforce the zone. Vessels, aircraft, orpersons in violation of this rule will besubject to the penalties set forth in 33U.S.C. 1232 and 50 U.S.C. 192.
We did not publish a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for thistemporary interim rule. Under 5 U.S.C.553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds thatgood cause exists for not publishing anNPRM. Due to the sensitive nature of this highly visible event, sufficientnotice of the zone locations was notreleased in time to adequately completethe NPRM rulemaking. This event is amatter of national security and thechanging nature of the event hasrequired flexibility among all parties.Issuing an NPRM is impracticable dueto the nature of the event. Thistemporary interim rule, however, is being used to provide a post-promulgation comment period inadvance of the event given the limitedtime remaining. It would be contrary tothe public interest to delay issuing aneffective rule. Post-promulgationcomments received on this temporaryinterim rule may allow the COTP toissue an improved temporary final rule, but issuing the interim rule now ensuresthat an effective rule will be in place toprovide the necessary security measuresrequired for the Asia-Pacific EconomicCooperation conference held on Oahu.We developed this temporary interimrule after considering numerous statutesand executive orders related torulemaking. Below we summarize ouranalyses based on 13 of these statutes orexecutive orders.
Regulatory Planning and Review This rule is not a significantregulatory action under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, RegulatoryPlanning and Review, and does notrequire an assessment of potential costsand benefits under section 6(a)(3) of thatOrder. The Office of Management andBudget has not reviewed it under thatOrder. The Coast Guard expects theeconomic impact of this rule to be sominimal that a full RegulatoryEvaluation under the regulatory policiesand procedures of DHS is unnecessary.This conclusion is based on the limitedduration of the zone and the limitedgeographic area affected by it.Furthermore, the general public will bepermitted to transit the security zone asnecessary but will not be permitted toloiter.
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act(5 U.S.C. 601–612), we have consideredwhether this temporary interim rule willhave a significant economic impact ona substantial number of small entities.The term ‘‘small entities’’ comprisessmall businesses, not-for-profitorganizations that are independentlyowned and operated and are notdominant in their fields, andgovernmental jurisdictions withpopulations of less than 50,000.The Coast Guard certifies under 5U.S.C. 605(b) that this temporaryinterim rule will not have a significanteconomic impact on a substantialnumber of small entities.This temporary interim rule couldaffect the following entities, some of which might be small entities: theowners or operators of vessels for hireintending to transit or operate in the AlaWai Harbor and Canal and West WaikikiSecurity Zones from November 9, 2011to November 16, 2011; the owners oroperators of vessels for hire intending totransit or operate in the East WaikikiSecurity Zone on November 12, 2011;and the owners or operators of vesselsfor hire intending to transit or operatein the Ko’olina Security Zone onNovember 13, 2011.These security zones will not have asignificant economic impact on asubstantial number of small entities forthe following reasons: The securityzones will be activated and thus subjectto enforcement for a period of no longerthan seven (7) days and will not affectvessels transiting 1500 yards (or more)offshore from the Sheraton Waikiki to1500 yards south-southwest from theAla Wai Harbor breakwater. It also willnot affect vessels transiting or operatingoutside 1500 yards west from KahePoint Beach Park to 1500 yardssouthwest from Barbers Point HarborChannel, not including the entrance toBarbers Point Harbor.If you think that your business,organization, or governmentaljurisdiction qualifies as a small entityand that this rule will have a significanteconomic impact on it, please submit acomment (see
) explainingwhy you think it qualifies and how andto what degree this rule willeconomically affect it.
Under section 213(a) of the SmallBusiness Regulatory EnforcementFairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–121),we want to assist small entities inunderstanding this temporary interimrule so that they can better evaluate itseffects on them and participate in therulemaking. If the rule will affect yoursmall business, organization, orgovernmental jurisdiction and you havequestions concerning its provisions oroptions for compliance, please contactLT Scott O. Whaley at (808) 522–8264ext. 352. The Coast Guard will notretaliate against small entities thatquestion or complain about thistemporary interim rule or any policy oraction of the Coast Guard.
This temporary interim rule will callfor no new collection of informationunder the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520.).
A rule has implications for federalismunder Executive Order 13132,Federalism, if it has a substantial directeffect on State or local governments andwould either preempt State law orimpose a substantial direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzedthis temporary interim rule under thatOrder and have determined that it doesnot have implications for federalism.
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act The Unfunded Mandates Reform Actof 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531–1538) requiresFederal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary regulatory actions. Inparticular, the Act addresses actionsthat may result in the expenditure by aState, local, or tribal government, in theaggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for inflation) ormore in any one year. Though thistemporary interim rule will not result insuch an expenditure, we do discuss theeffects of this rule elsewhere in thispreamble.
Taking of Private Property This temporary interim rule will notcause a taking of private property orotherwise have taking implicationsunder Executive Order 12630,Governmental Actions and Interferencewith Constitutionally Protected PropertyRights.
This temporary interim rule meetsapplicable standards in sections 3(a)
