SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background and Purpose

    We published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) in the Federal 
Register on February 10, 2017 (82 FR 10313), entitled ``Anchorages; 
Captain of the Port Puget Sound Zone, WA.'' In it we stated that 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. 82 FR 10314. We 
received letters from two tribes requesting additional time to comment 
and have concluded, notwithstanding the Coast Guard's position that 
this proposed rule does not have tribal implications under Executive 
Order 13175, that a formal government to government consultation would 
aid this rulemaking. The Coast Guard greatly values the government to 
government relationship it has with the tribes, and desires to continue 
a meaningful dialogue on shared interests. Therefore, we are publishing 
this notification so that the tribes can identify and communicate to 
the Coast Guard which treaty rights are impacted and how the Coast 
Guard should consider these rights in its rulemaking analysis.
    In the NPRM, we proposed the creation of several new anchorages, 
holding areas, and a non-anchorage area as well as the expansion of one 
existing general anchorage in the Puget Sound area, as detailed in the 
proposed regulatory text. The proposed anchorages and areas have been 
used for many years informally, however, they are not included on 
nautical charts, referenced in the Coast Pilot, or subject to anchorage 
regulations. This rulemaking also proposes new and updated regulations 
governing anchorages and areas in the Puget Sound area, as detailed in 
the proposed regulatory text. The codification of these anchorages and 
areas, along with the new and updated regulations, would improve the 
safety of all Puget Sound waterway users by having the anchorages and 
areas included on nautical charts, referenced in the Coast Pilot, 
subject to appropriate regulations, and available to Vessel Traffic 
Service (VTS) Puget Sound whenever necessary to manage vessel traffic.
    You may view the NPRM in our online docket, in addition to 
supporting documents prepared by the Coast Guard--e.g., environmental 
checklist, and comments submitted thus far, by going to http://www.regulations.gov. Once there, insert ``USCG-2016-0916'' in the 
``Keyword'' box and click ``Search.''
    We encourage all interested tribes to participate in this formal 
consultation by responding orally at the consultation or in writing. If 
you bring written comments to the formal consultation, you may submit 
them to Coast Guard personnel specified at the meeting to receive 
written comments. These comments will be submitted to our online public 
docket. All comments received will be posted without change to http://www.regulations.gov and will include any personal information you have 
provided.
    Comments submitted after the meeting must reach the Coast Guard on 
or before August 9, 2017. We encourage you to submit comments through 
the Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. If your 
material cannot be submitted using http://www.regulations.gov, contact 
the person in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this 
document for alternate instructions.

Tribal Government to Government Consultation

    The Coast Guard will hold a formal tribal government to government 
consultation regarding its proposed rule on Thursday, July 13, 2017 
from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the location to be published shortly. We 
request that tribes intending to participate in this consultation 
submit the following information to the person in the FOR FURTHER 
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this document by June 30, 2017: (1) 
Whether the tribe will attend the face-to-face tribal consultation, (2) 
the name and contact information of anyone other than the Chief 
Executive of the tribe that is authorized to engage in government to 
government consultation with the Coast Guard for this tribal 
consultation, and (3) any proposed agenda items and written materials 
it intends to present. We will also provide a written summary of the 
government to government tribal consultation and comments and will 
place that summary in the docket. Members of the public will have time 
to submit further comments between the posting of the summary of the 
tribal consultation and the closing of the comment period.
