A. Regulatory History and Information

    On December 24, 2014, The Coast Guard published an NPRM entitled 
Safety Zones; Annual Events Requiring Safety Zones in the Captain of 
the Port Lake Michigan Zone in the Federal Register (79 FR 77415). We 
did not receive any comments in response to the proposed rule. No 
public meeting was requested and none was held.

B. Basis and Purpose

    The legal basis for this rule is the Coast Guard's authority to 
establish safety zones: 33 U.S.C. 1231; 33 CFR 1.05-1, 160.5; 
Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
    This rule amends 18 permanent safety zones found within table 
165.929 of 33 CFR 165.929. These 18 amendments involve updating the 
location, size, and/or enforcement times for: 13 fireworks displays in 
various locations; 1 regatta in Spring Lake, Michigan; 1 Air Show near 
Oshkosh, Wisconsin; 1 Air Show in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; 1 Vessel Launch 
Operation in Marinette, Wisconsin; and 1 high-speed boat race in Elgin, 
Illinois. The Coast Guard updates the safety zones in Sec.  165.929 to 
ensure that vessels and persons are protected from the specific hazards 
related to the aforementioned events. These specific hazards include 
obstructions to the waterway that may cause marine casualties; 
collisions among vessels maneuvering at a high speed within a channel; 
the explosive danger of fireworks; and flaming debris falling into the 
water that may cause injuries.
    Additionally, this rule adds 5 new safety zones to table 165.929 
within Sec.  165.929 for annually-reoccurring events in the Captain of 
the Port Lake Michigan Zone. These 5 zones were added in order to 
protect the public from the safety hazards previously described. The 5 
additions include 4 safety zones for fireworks displays, and 1 safety 
zone for a ski show in the Fox River, Green Bay, Wisconsin.
    In this rule, the Coast Guard also changed the format of latitude/
longitude coordinates for safety zones in Table 165.929 of Sec.  
165.929 from degrees, minutes, seconds to degrees with decimal minutes. 
This change of format was made in an effort to improve precision and 
make the information more compatible with currently-used, electronic 
positioning systems.

C. Discussion of Comments, Changes and the Final Rule

    The Captain of the Port Lake Michigan has determined that the 
safety zones in this rule are necessary to ensure the safety of vessels 
and people during annual marine or triggering events in the Captain of 
the Port Lake Michigan zone. Although this rule will be effective year-
round, the safety zones in this rule will be enforced only immediately 
before, during, and after events that pose a hazard to the public and 
only upon notice by the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan.
    The Captain of the Port Lake Michigan will notify the public that 
the zones in this rule are or will be enforced by all appropriate means 
to the affected segments of the public, including publication in the 
Federal Register, as practicable, in accordance with 33 CFR 165.7(a). 
Such means of notification may also include, but are not limited to, 
Broadcast Notice to Mariners or Local Notice to Mariners.
    All persons and vessels must comply with the instructions of the 
Coast Guard Captain of the Port Lake Michigan or his or her designated 
representative. Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the safety 
zones is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port or his 
or her designated representative. The Captain of the Port or his or her 
designated representative may be contacted via VHF Channel 16.

D. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this 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 rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f) 
of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, and does not 
require an assessment of potential costs and benefits under section 
6(a)(3) of that Order. The Office of Management and Budget has not 
reviewed it under that Order. It is not ``significant'' under the 
regulatory policies and procedures of the Department of Homeland 
Security (DHS). We conclude that this rule is not a significant 
regulatory action because we anticipate that it will have minimal 
impact on the economy, will not interfere with other agencies, will not 
adversely alter the budget of any grant or loan recipients, and will 
not raise any novel legal or policy issues. The safety zones created by 
this rule will be relatively small. Also, the safety zones are designed 
to minimize impact on navigable waters. Furthermore, the safety zones 
have been designed to allow vessels to transit unrestricted portions of 
the waterways not affected by the safety zones. Thus, restrictions on 
vessel movements within the

[[Page 8537]]

affected area are expected to be minimal. Under certain conditions, 
moreover, vessels may still transit through the safety zones when 
permitted by the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan. Overall, we expect 
the economic impact of this rule to be minimal and that a full 
Regulatory Evaluation is unnecessary.

2. 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 
would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of 
small entities.
    This rule will affect the following entities, some of which might 
be small entities: The owners and operators of vessels intending to 
transit or anchor in the areas designated as safety zones during the 
dates and times the safety zones are being enforced.
    These safety zones will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities for the reasons cited in the 
Regulatory Planning and Review section. Additionally, before the 
enforcement of these zones, we would issue a local Broadcast Notice to 
Mariners so vessel owners and operators can plan accordingly.
    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 rule so that they can better evaluate 
its effects on them and participate in the rulemaking process. If this 
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 FOR FURTHER 
INFORMATION CONTACT section, above. 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.

4. Collection of Information

    This rule calls 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 State or local 
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial 
direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this 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 rule would not result 
in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule 
elsewhere in this preamble.

8. Taking of Private Property

    This rule would not affect 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 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 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 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.

12. Energy Effects

    This action 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 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 
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental 
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have determined 
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 rule involves the establishment of safety zones and 
thus, is categorically excluded under paragraph (34)(g) of the 
Instruction. An environmental analysis checklist supporting this 
determination 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.

    (a) Regulations. The following regulations apply to the safety 
zones listed in Table 165.929 of this section.
    (1) The general regulations in Sec.  165.23.
    (2) All vessels must obtain permission from the Captain of the Port 
Lake Michigan or his or her designated representative to enter, move 
within, or exit a safety zone established in this section when the 
safety zone is enforced. Vessels and persons granted permission to 
enter one of the safety zones listed in this section must obey all 
lawful orders or directions of the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan or 
his or her designated representative. Upon being hailed by the U.S. 
Coast Guard by siren, radio, flashing light or other means, the 
operator of a vessel must proceed as directed.
    (3) The enforcement dates and times for each of the safety zones 
listed in Table 165.929 of this section are subject to change, but the 
duration of enforcement would remain the same or nearly the same total 
number of hours as stated in the table. In the event of a change, the 
Captain of the Port Lake Michigan will provide notice to the public by 
publishing a Notice of Enforcement in the Federal Register, as well as, 
issuing a Broadcast Notice to Mariners.
    (b) Definitions. The following definitions apply to this section:
    (1) Designated representative means any Coast Guard commissioned, 
warrant, or petty officer designated by the Captain of the Port Lake 
Michigan to monitor a safety zone, permit entry into a safety zone, 
give legally enforceable orders to persons or vessels within a safety 
zone, and take other actions authorized by the Captain of the Port Lake 
Michigan.
    (2) Public vessel means a vessel that is owned, chartered, or 
operated by the United States, or by a State or political subdivision 
thereof.
    (3) Rain date refers to an alternate date and/or time in which the 
safety zone would be enforced in the event of inclement weather.
    (c) Suspension of enforcement. The Captain of the Port Lake 
Michigan may suspend enforcement of any of these zones earlier than 
listed in this section. Should the Captain of the Port suspend any of 
these zones earlier than the listed duration in this section, he or she 
may make the public aware of this suspension by Broadcast Notice to 
Mariners and/or on-scene notice by his or her designated 
representative.
    (d) Exemption. Public vessels, as defined in paragraph (b) of this 
section, are exempt from the requirements in this section.
    (e) Waiver. For any vessel, the Captain of the Port Lake Michigan 
or his or her designated representative may waive any of the 
requirements of this section upon finding that operational conditions 
or other circumstances are such that application of this section is 
unnecessary or impractical for the purposes of safety or security.
