[Docket Number USCG-2017-0010]
RIN 1625-AA08


Special Local Regulations; Sector Ohio Valley Annual and 
Recurring Special Local Regulations Update

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is amending and updating its special local 
regulations relating to recurring marine parades, regattas, 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 special local regulation. Through this rulemaking the 
current list of recurring special local regulations is updated with 
revisions, additional events, and removal of events that no longer take 
place in Sector Ohio Valley's AOR. When these special local regulations 
are enforced, certain restrictions are placed on marine traffic in 
specified areas.

DATES: This rule is effective June 2, 2017.

I. Table of Abbreviations

CFR Code of Federal Regulations
DHS Department of Homeland Security
FR Federal Register
NPRM Notice of proposed rulemaking
Sec.  Section
U.S.C. United States Code

II. Background Information and Regulatory History

    The Captain of the Port (COTP) Ohio Valley is establishing, 
amending, and updating its current list of recurring special local 
regulations codified under 33 CFR 100.801 in Table no. 1, for the COTP 
Ohio Valley zone.
    On March 27, 2017, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed 
rulemaking (NPRM) titled Sector Ohio Valley Annual and Recurring 
Special Local Regulations Update (82 FR 15174). During the comment 
period that ended April 26, 2017, no comments were received.
    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. It would be 
impracticable to provide a full 30-days notice because this rule must 
be effective June 16, 2017.

III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule

    The Coast Guard's authority for establishing a special local 
regulation is contained at 33 U.S.C. 1233. The Coast Guard is amending 
and updating the special local regulations under 33 CFR part 100 to 
include the most up to date list of recurring special local regulations 
for events held on or around navigable waters within the Sector Ohio 
Valley AOR. These events include marine parades, boat races, swim 
events, and others. The current list under 33 CFR 100.801 requires 
amending to provide new information on existing special local 
regulations, include new special local regulations expected to recur 
annually or biannually, and to remove special local regulations that 
are no longer required. Issuing individual regulations for each new 
special local regulation, amendment, or removal of an existing special 
local regulation 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 special local regulations.

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes, and the Rule

    No comments were received. No changes to the proposed rule have 
been made.

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 special local regulations limiting access to 
certain areas under 33 CFR part 100 within Sector Ohio Valley's AOR. 
The effect of this rulemaking will not be significant because these 
special local regulations 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 special local regulations in 
advance. Deviation from the special local regulations established

[[Page 25512]]

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 special local regulations 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 special local regulation areas during periods of enforcement. The 
special local regulations 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 special local 
regulations 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 
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 
rule involves the establishment of special local regulations related to 
marine event permits for marine parades, regattas, and other marine 
events. It is categorically excluded from further review under 
paragraph 34(h) of Figure 2-1 of the Commandant Instruction. A Record 
of Environmental Consideration (REC) supporting this determination is 
available in the docket where indicated in the ADDRESSES section of 
this preamble.

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.
