The Coast Guard proposes to change the operating schedule that governs the South Park Bridge, on the Duwamish Waterway, mile 3.8, at Seattle, WA. Highway traffic patterns have changed since this rule was last amended, therefore the bridge owner (King County) is proposing to update the operating schedule to better meet the needs of local highway users by matching drawbridge closure hours to current commuter traffic patterns. This change would improve movement of rush hour highway traffic while having minimal impact to maritime waterway traffic.

this rulemaking, we will hold one at a time and place announced by a 
later notice in the Federal Register.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for this rule is 33 U.S.C. 499, 33 CFR 1.05-1; and 
Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
    King County owns and operates the South Park Bridge, and requested 
a permanent change to the existing operating regulation. The new 
proposed regulation would update drawbridge closure times to better 
meet current highway traffic demands, and match the closure schedule 
with the First Avenue South Bridge, mile 2.5, on the Duwamish Waterway.
    The South Park Bascule Bridge, at Seattle WA, on the Duwamish 
Waterway at mile 3.8, is subject to tidal influence and has at least 15 
feet of water depth at the bridge site at mean lower low water. Vessel 
traffic on the Duwamish waterway consists of vessels ranging from small 
pleasure craft, sailboats, small tribal fishing boats, and commercial 
tug and tow, and mega yachts.
    The inefficiencies of the current drawbridge operating regulation 
were brought to the Coast Guard's attention by the bridge owner. The 
current drawbridge operating regulation was written to accommodate 
commuter patterns associated with morning and afternoon highway traffic 
associated with Boeing Plant number 2 shift changes. As of 2011 this 
plant is no longer operational and therefore highway traffic densities 
have changed. Adjusting the existing drawbridge regulation would better 
meet the needs of current highway users by matching drawbridge closure 
hours to the First Avenue South Bridge and current commuter traffic 
patterns, while having minimal impact on maritime navigation.

C. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    The Coast Guard would amend the operating regulations at 33 CFR 
117.1041(a)(2). The regulation currently states that South Park Bridge 
need not be opened for the passage of vessels from 6:30 a.m. to 8:00 
a.m. and 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal 
holidays. The Coast Guard proposes to change the opening schedule such 
that the bridge need not be opened for the passage of vessels from 6:00 
a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, 
except Federal holidays other than Columbus Day. The purpose of this 
proposed amendment is to increase efficiency for current highway 
traffic demands in light of changed traffic patterns, and match the 
closure schedule with the First Avenue South Bridge on the Duwamish 
Waterway. All other requirements regarding the South Park Bridge under 
33 CFR 117.1041 will remain the same.

D. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes 
and executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our 
analyses based on these statutes or executive orders.

1. 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, Improving Regulation and 
Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential 
costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of Order 12866 or under 
section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management and Budget 
has not reviewed it under those Orders. The Coast Guard has made this 
finding based on the fact that the proposed change does not 
significantly alter the duration and time frame of the current closure 
schedule.

2. Impact on Small Entities

    The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 (RFA), 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 
proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities. This proposed rule would affect 
the following entities, some of which might be small entities: The 
owners or operators of commercial and recreational vessels looking to 
transit the bridge and associated maritime waterfront facilities (e.g., 
marina, marine repair/construction businesses) beyond the bridge.
    This action will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities for the following reasons. This 
rule will be in effect twice a day for three hours when vessel traffic 
is low and vehicle traffic is high. Vessels that can safely transit 
under the bridge may do so at any time. Furthermore, most vessels that 
would be affected by this proposed rule are already operating according 
to the current restricted operating regulation for the First Avenue 
South Bridge.

[[Page 27621]]

    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.

3. 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. 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, above. 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.

4. 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).

5. Federalism

    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 proposed rule under that Order and 
have determined that it does not have implications for federalism.

6. 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.

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

8. 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.

9. 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.

10. 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.

11. 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 (make 
sure we send NPRM to local Tribe).

12. Energy Effects

    This proposed rule is not a ``significant energy action'' under 
Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That 
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use.

13. Technical Standards

    This proposed rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we 
did not consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

14. Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security 
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which 
guides 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 which do not individually or cumulatively have a significant 
effect on the human environment. This proposed rule simply amends the 
operating regulations or procedures for drawbridges. This rule is 
categorically excluded, under figure 2-1, paragraph (32)(e), of the 
Instruction.
    Under figure 2-1, paragraph (32)(e), of the Instruction, an 
environmental analysis checklist and a categorical exclusion 
determination are not required for this rule. We seek any comments or 
information that may lead to the discovery of a significant 
environmental impact from this proposed rule.
