Safety Zones; Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley Annual and Recurring 
Safety Zones Update

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is amending and updating its safety zones 
relating to recurring fireworks shows and other events that take place 
in the Coast Guard Sector Ohio Valley area of responsibility (AOR). 
This rule informs the public of regularly scheduled events that require 
additional safety measures through the establishing of a safety zone. 
Through this rulemaking the current list of recurring safety zones is 
updated with revisions, additional events, and removal of events that 
no longer take place in Sector Ohio Valley's AOR. When these safety 
zones are enforced, certain restrictions are placed on marine traffic 
in specified areas.

DATES: This rule is effective June 14, 2016.

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    The Captain of the Port (COTP) Ohio Valley is establishing, 
amending, and updating its current list of recurring safety zones 
codified in Table 1 of 33 CFR 165.801, for the COTP Ohio Valley zone.
    On March 7, 2016, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed 
rulemaking (NPRM) entitled, ``Sector Ohio Valley Annual and Recurring 
Safety Zones Update'' (81 FR 11706). The public comment period ended on 
June 6, 2016. Before the comment period closed, the Coast Guard 
received information regarding two of the events. For the event listed 
in Table 1, Line 21, the event sponsor provided a new location and for 
the event listed in Table 1, Line 56, the event sponsor requested that 
for 2016 the event be held on July 1 instead of July 4. See Section IV. 
for more information on these two events.
    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. Though we are not 
providing a full 30 day notice period, the Coast Guard is now providing 
less than 30 days notice before the first recurring event enforcement 
is required on July 2. It is impracticable to provide a full 30-days 
notice because this rule must be effective July 2, 2016.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard's authority for establishing a safety zone is 
contained at 33 U.S.C. 1231. The Coast Guard is amending and updating 
the safety zones under 33 CFR part 165 to include the most up to date 
list of recurring safety zones for events held on or around navigable 
waters within the Sector Ohio Valley AOR. These events include 
fireworks displays, air shows, and others. The current list in Table 1 
of 33 CFR 165.801 requires amending to provide new information on 
existing safety zones, include new safety zones expected to recur 
annually or biannually, and to remove safety zones that are no longer 
required. Issuing individual regulations for each new safety zone, 
amendment, or removal of an existing safety zone creates unnecessary 
administrative costs and burdens. This rulemaking reduces 
administrative overhead and provides the public with notice through 
publication in the Federal Register of the upcoming recurring safety 
zones.

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule

    As noted above, we received information correcting the location for 
one recurring event and a date change for another from the event 
sponsors during the NPRM comment period. Therefore for 2016, we will be 
issuing a temporary final rule under Docket number 2016-0502 to 
establish a safety zone for the Riverfront Independence Festival 
Fireworks event, listed in Table 1, Line 21. The temporary final rule 
will be issued because for 2016, the event sponsor requested to change 
the location of the event from Ohio River, Mile 602.0-603.5 (Indiana) 
to Ohio River, Mile 607.5-608.6 (Indiana). If the event sponsor decides 
to continue to hold the event annually at the new location, the Coast 
Guard will publish an NPRM in the Federal Register to permanently 
change the event location.
    In addition for 2016, we will be issuing a temporary final rule 
under Docket number 2016-0279 to establish a safety zone for the 
Kindred Communications/Dawg Dazzle event, listed in Table 1, Line 56. 
The temporary final rule will reflect that for 2016 the event will be 
held on July 1 instead of July 4, which is the date listed in this 
final rule. If the event sponsor decides to continue to hold the event 
annually on July 1, the Coast Guard will publish an NPRM in the Federal 
Register to permanently change the event date.
    All other proposed amendments will be adopted without change from 
the NPRM.

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 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, it has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and 
Budget.
    The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this rule to be 
minimal, and therefore a full regulatory evaluation is unnecessary. 
This rule establishes safety zones limiting access to certain areas 
under 33 CFR 165 within Sector Ohio Valley's AOR. The effect of this 
rulemaking will not be significant because these safety zones are 
limited in scope and duration. Additionally, the public is given 
advance notification through local forms of notice, the Federal 
Register, and/or Notices of Enforcement and thus will be able to plan 
around the safety zones in advance. Deviation from the safety zones 
established through this proposed rulemaking may be requested from the 
appropriate COTP and requests will be considered on a case-by-case 
basis. Broadcast Notices to Mariners and Local Notices to Mariners will 
also inform the community of these safety zones so that they may plan 
accordingly for these short restrictions on transit. Vessel traffic may 
request permission from the COTP Ohio Valley or a designated 
representative to enter the restricted areas.

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 0 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.
    This rule will affect the following entities, some of which may be 
small entities: The owners or operators of vessels intending to transit 
the safety zone areas during periods of enforcement. The safety zones 
will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of 
small entities because they are limited in scope and will be in effect 
for short periods of time. Before the enforcement period, the Coast 
Guard COTP will issue maritime advisories widely available to waterway 
users. Deviation from the safety zones established through this 
rulemaking may be requested from the appropriate COTP and requests will 
be considered on a case-by-case basis.
    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement

[[Page 38597]]

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

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 
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 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 
proposed rule is categorically excluded under section 2.B.2, figure 2-
1, paragraph (34(g)) of the Instruction because it involves 
establishment of safety zones.

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.
