Special Local Regulations and Safety Zones; Recurring Marine 
Events Held in the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England Captain of 
the Port Zone

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is updating the special local regulations and 
permanent safety zones in the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England 
Captain of the Port Zone for annual recurring marine events. When 
enforced, these special local regulations and safety zones will 
restrict vessels from portions of water areas during certain annually 
recurring events. The special local regulations and safety zones are 
intended to expedite public notification and ensure the protection of 
the maritime public and event participants from the hazards associated 
with certain maritime events.

DATES: This rule is effective June 6, 2016.

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    On February 25, 2016, the Coast Guard published an NPRM in the 
Federal Register titled Special Local

[[Page 36155]]

Regulations and Safety Zone; Recurring Marine Events Held in the Coast 
Guard Sector Northern New England Captain of the Port Zone, 81 FR 9380, 
proposing to update SLR and safety zones. There we stated why we issued 
the NPRM, and invited comments on our proposed regulatory action. No 
public comments or request for a public meeting were received during 
the NPRM process. Swim events, fireworks displays, and marine events 
are held on an annual recurring basis on the navigable waters within 
the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England COTP Zone. In the past, the 
Coast Guard has established special local regulations, regulated areas, 
and safety zones for these annual recurring events on a case by case 
basis to ensure the protection of the maritime public and event 
participants from the hazards associated with these events. In the past 
year, events were assessed for their likelihood to recur in subsequent 
years or to discontinue, and were added to or deleted from the tables 
accordingly. In addition, minor changes to existing events were made to 
ensure the accuracy of event details.
    The purpose of this rulemaking is to reduce administrative 
overhead, expedite public notification of events, and ensure the 
protection of the maritime public during marine events in the Sector 
Northern New England area.
    We are issuing this rule, and under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast 
Guard finds that good cause exists for making it effective less than 30 
days after publication in the Federal Register. The comment period for 
the NPRM associated with the Special Local Regulations and Safety Zone; 
Recurring Marine Events Held in the Coast Guard Sector Northern New 
England Captain of the Port Zone expired on April 25, 2016. The first 
events are scheduled to occur June 18, 2016. Thus, there is now 
insufficient time for a 30 day effective period before the need to 
enforce this safety zone and SLR. Delaying the enforcement of this 
safety zone and SLR to allow a 30 day effective period will be 
impracticable and contrary to the public interest because it would 
inhibit the Coast Guard's ability to fulfill its mission to keep the 
ports and waterways safe.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard issues this rulemaking under authority in 33 U.S.C. 
1231. This rule will update the tables of annual recurring events in 
the existing regulation for the Coast Guard Sector Northern New England 
COTP Zone. The tables provide the event name, sponsor, and type, as 
well as approximate times, dates, and locations of the events. Advanced 
public notification of specific times, dates, regulated areas, and 
enforcement periods for each event will be provided through appropriate 
means, which may include, the Local Notice to Mariners, Broadcast 
Notice to Mariners, and a Notice of Enforcement published in the 
Federal Register at least 30 days prior to the event date. If an event 
does not have a date and time listed in this regulation, then the 
precise dates and times of the enforcement period for that event will 
be announced through a Local Notice to Mariners and, if time permits, a 
Notice of Enforcement in the Federal Register.

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes to the Rule

    As noted above, we received no comments to the NPRM published 
February 25, 2016. The single change from the NPRM is the addition of 
dates to the Lake Champlain Dragon Boat Race held in Burlington, VT. 
The Coast Guard has added two dates in July, as well as an additional 
date in August to the table of Special Local regulations in 33 CFR 
100.120

V. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and 
executive orders 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 13563 emphasizes the importance of 
quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing 
rules, and of promoting flexibility. This rule has not been designated 
a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order 12866. 
Accordingly, the final rule has not been reviewed by the Office of 
Management and Budget.
    We expect the economic impact of this rule to be minimal. Although 
this regulation may have some impact on the public, the potential 
impact will be minimized for the following reason: the Coast Guard is 
only modifying an existing regulation to account for new information.

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 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.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the 
regulated waters may be small entities, for the reasons stated in 
section V.A above, this rule will not have a significant economic 
impact on any vessel owner or operator.
    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 rule. 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 the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT 
section. 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 would 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

[[Page 36156]]

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 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. If 
you believe this rule has implications for federalism or Indian tribes, 
please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT 
section above.

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 would 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 
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which 
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental 
Policy Act of 1969 (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 rule involves water activities including swimming 
events and fireworks displays. They maybe categorically excluded from 
further review under paragraph 34(g)(Safety Zones) and (34)(h)(Special 
Local Regulations) of Figure 2-1 of Commandant Instruction M16475.lD. A 
preliminary environmental analysis checklist supporting this 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 rule.

G. Protest Activities

    The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters. 
Protesters are asked to contact 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.
