2016 Quarterly Listings; Safety Zones, Security Zones, Special 
Local Regulations, Drawbridge Operation Regulations and Regulated 
Navigation Areas

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of expired temporary rules issued.

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

SUMMARY: This document provides notice of substantive rules issued by 
the Coast Guard that were made temporarily effective but expired before 
they could be published in the Federal Register. This notice lists 
temporary safety zones, security zones, special local regulations, 
drawbridge operation regulations and regulated navigation areas, all of 
limited duration and for which timely publication in the Federal 
Register was not possible.

DATES: This document lists temporary Coast Guard rules that became 
effective, primarily between October 2016 and December 2016, unless 
otherwise indicated, and were terminated before they could be published 
in the Federal Register.

ADDRESSES: Temporary rules listed in this document may be viewed 
online, under their respective docket numbers, using the Federal 
eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For questions on this notice contact 
Yeoman First Class David Hager, Office of Regulations and 
Administrative Law, telephone (202) 372-3862.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Coast Guard District Commanders and Captains 
of the Port (COTP) must be immediately responsive to the safety and 
security needs within their jurisdiction; therefore, District 
Commanders and COTPs have been delegated the authority to issue certain 
local regulations. Safety zones may be established for safety or 
environmental purposes. A safety zone may be stationary and described 
by fixed limits or it may be described as a zone around a vessel in 
motion. Security zones limit access to prevent injury or damage to 
vessels, ports, or waterfront facilities. Special local regulations are 
issued to enhance the safety of participants and spectators at regattas 
and other marine events. Drawbridge operation regulations authorize 
changes to drawbridge schedules to accommodate bridge repairs, seasonal 
vessel traffic, and local public events. Regulated Navigation Areas are 
water areas within a defined boundary for which regulations for vessels 
navigating within the area have been established by the regional Coast 
Guard District Commander.
    Timely publication of these rules in the Federal Register may be 
precluded when a rule responds to an emergency, or when an event occurs 
without sufficient advance notice. The affected public is, however, 
often informed of these rules through Local Notices to Mariners, press 
releases, and other means. Moreover, actual notification is provided by 
Coast Guard patrol vessels enforcing the restrictions imposed by the 
rule. Because Federal Register publication was not possible before the 
end of the effective period, mariners were personally notified of the 
contents of these safety zones, security zones, special local 
regulations, regulated navigation areas or drawbridge operation 
regulations by Coast Guard officials on-scene prior to any enforcement 
action. However, the Coast Guard, by law, must publish in the Federal 
Register notice of substantive rules adopted. To meet this obligation 
without imposing undue expense on the public, the Coast Guard 
periodically publishes a list of these temporary safety zones, security 
zones, special local regulations, regulated navigation areas and 
drawbridge operation regulations. Permanent rules are not included in 
this list because they are published in their entirety in the Federal 
Register. Temporary rules are also published in their entirety if 
sufficient time is available to do so before they are placed in effect 
or terminated.
    The following unpublished rules were placed in effect temporarily 
during the period between October 2016 and December 2016 unless 
otherwise indicated. To view copies of these rules, visit 
www.regulations.gov and search by the docket number indicated in the 
list below.
