[Docket Number USCG-2018-0949]
RIN 1625-AA08
Special Local Regulations; Recurring Marine Events, Sector St.
Petersburg
AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is revising existing regulations and
consolidate into one table special local regulations for recurring
marine events at various locations within the geographic boundaries of
the Seventh Coast Guard District Captain of the Port (COTP) St.
Petersburg Zone. Consolidating marine events into one table simplifies
Coast Guard oversight and public notification of special local
regulations within COTP St. Petersburg Zone.
DATES: This rule is effective May 27, 2020.

II. Background Information and Regulatory History
Recurring marine events within the Seventh Coast Guard District are
currently listed in 33 CFR 100.701, Table to 1 to Sec. 100.701. The
process for amending the table (e.g. adding or removing marine events)
is lengthy and inefficient since it includes recurring marine events
for seven different COTP zones within the Seventh District. To expedite
and simplify the rule-making process for new marine events/special
local regulations, COTP's resorted to creating individual rules rather
than amending the Table 1 to Sec. 100.701.
This rule serves two purposes: (1) Create a table of recurring
marine events/special local regulations occurring solely within the
COTP St. Petersburg Zone, and (2) consolidate into that table marine
events/special local regulations previously established outside of
Table 1 to Sec. 100.701. The proposed new table would facilitate
management of and public access to information about marine events
within the COTP St. Petersburg Zone.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 46 U.S.C.
70034 (previously 33 U.S.C. 1231). The COTP St. Petersburg has
determined that potential hazards associated with the events listed in
this rule will be a safety concern for anyone in the area the events
are being held. The purpose of this rule is to ensure safety of vessels
and the navigable waters in the event areas before, during, and after
the scheduled event.
IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule
As noted above, we received no comments on our NPRM published
January 14, 2020. Other than inserting a ``1'' in the table headings in
Sec. 100.701 and Sec. 100.703, and renumbering event-date designators
in Table 1 to Sec. 100.702, there are no changes in the regulatory
text of this rule from the proposed rule in the NPRM.
There are no changes in the regulatory text of this rule from the
proposed rule in the NPRM.

proposed new Sec. 100.703, Table 1 to Sec. 100.703, Line 8.
The marine events as listed in the new Table to the new Sec.
100.703, Table 1 to Sec. 100.703 are scheduled to occur over a
particular time during each month each year. Exact dates are
intentionally omitted since calendar dates for a specific events change
from year to year. Once dates for a marine event are known, the Coast
Guard will notify the public of its intent to enforce the special local
regulation through various means including a Notice of Enforcement
published in the Federal Register, Local Notice to Mariners, and
Broadcast Notice to Mariners.
[[Page 23221]]
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 size,
location, and duration of the special local regulations. These areas
are limited in size and duration, and usually do not affect high vessel
traffic areas. Moreover, the Coast Guard would provide advance notice
of the regulated areas to the local maritime community via Notice of
Enforcement published in the Federal Register, by Local Notice to
Mariners, Broadcast to Mariners via VHF-FM marine channel 16, and the
rule would allow vessels to seek permission to enter the regulated
area.
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.
While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit the
event areas 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
call or email 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 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 the
establishment of special local regulations for recurring marine events
within the COTP St. Petersburg Zone. It is categorically excluded from
further review under paragraph L61 of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS
Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, Rev. 1. A Memorandum for Record
supporting this determination is available in the docket. For
instructions on locating the docket, see the ADDRESSES section of this
preamble.
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.

(1) Designated representative. The term ``designated
representative'' means Coast Guard Patrol Commanders, including Coast

(2) The COTP St. Petersburg or designated representative may
terminate the event, or the operation of any vessel participating in
the event, at any time it is deemed necessary for the protection of
