[Docket Number USCG-2015-1079]
RIN 1625-AA00


Safety Zones; Sector Upper Mississippi River Annual and Recurring 
Safety Zones Update

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.

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

[[Page 20593]]

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to amend and update its annual and 
recurring safety zones that take place in the Coast Guard Sector Upper 
Mississippi River area of responsibility (AOR). This document informs 
the public of regularly scheduled events that require additional safety 
measures through establishing a safety zone. This document also 
proposes to update the current list of recurring safety zones with 
revisions, additional events, and removal of events that no longer take 
place in Sector Upper Mississippi River's AOR. Additionally, this one 
proposed rulemaking project reduces administrative costs involved in 
producing separate proposed rules for each individual recurring safety 
zone and serves to provide notice of the known recurring safety zones 
throughout the year. We invite your comments on this proposed 
rulemaking.

DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast 
Guard on or before May 9, 2016.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-
2015-1079 using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at http://www.regulations.gov. See the ``Public Participation and Request for 
Comments'' portion of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for further 
instructions on submitting comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this 
proposed rulemaking, call or email LCDR Sean Peterson, Chief of 
Prevention, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone 314-269-2332, email 
Sean.M.Peterson@uscg.mil.

II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis

    The Captain of the Port (COTP) Upper Mississippi River is proposing 
to amend and update its current list of recurring safety zones.
    The current list of annual and recurring safety zones occurring in 
Sector Upper Mississippi River's AOR is published under 33 CFR part 
165.801, Table 2. This current list was established through a 
rulemaking process providing for comment and public participation. No 
adverse comments were received, resulting in the final rulemaking 80 FR 
49911, which was published August 18, 2015. The final rulemaking 
amended 33 CFR 165.801 to establish the current list of recurring 
safety zones.
    This rulemaking proposes to add to, amend, and update the list of 
annually recurring safety zones under Table 2 in 33 CFR 165.801 for 
annual and recurring safety zones in the COTP Upper Mississippi zone.
    The Coast Guard is amending and updating the annual and recurring 
safety zone regulations under 33 CFR part 165 to include the most up to 
date list of annual and recurring safety zones for events held on or 
around navigable waters within Sector Upper Mississippi River's AOR. 
These events include fireworks displays, air shows, festival events, 
and other recurring marine related safety needs. The current list under 
33 CFR 165.801 requires amending to provide new information on existing 
safety zones, updating to include new safety zones expected to recur 
annually, 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 zones creates unnecessary administrative 
costs and burdens. This single proposed rulemaking will considerably 
reduce administrative overhead and provide the public with notice 
through publication in the Federal Register of the upcoming annual and 
recurring safety zones. The Coast Guard proposes this rulemaking under 
the authority in 33 U.S.C. 1221.

III. Discussion of Proposed Rule

    33 CFR part 165 contains regulations establishing limited access 
areas on U.S. navigable waters. Section 165.801 lists the established 
recurring safety zones taking place in the Eighth Coast Guard District 
separated into tables for each of the seven sectors within the Eighth 
District. Table 2 lists the recurring safety zones for Sector Upper 
Mississippi River. This section, and table, requires amendment from 
time to time to properly reflect the recurring safety zones in Sector 
Upper Mississippi River's AOR. This proposed rule amends and updates 
Section 165.801 replacing the current Table 2 for Sector Upper 
Mississippi River.
    Additionally, this proposed rule adds 3 new, modifies 7, and 
removes 14 recurring safety zones as listed below.
    This proposed rule adds 3 new safety zones to Table 2 in Sec.  
165.801 as follows:

                                                                     Sector Upper

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

    The effect of this proposed rule will be to restrict general 
navigation in the safety zone during the event. Vessels will experience 
limited access on the waterway when the safety zones are in effect. 
Requests to transit into, through, or within a safety zone will be 
considered and will be allowed only when deemed safe by the COTP Upper 
Mississippi River, or designated representative.

IV. Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this proposed rule after considering numerous statutes 
and Executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our 
analyses based on a number of these statutes and

[[Page 20595]]

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 NPRM has not been designated 
a ``significant regulatory action,'' under Executive Order 12866. 
Accordingly, the NPRM has not been reviewed by the Office of Management 
and Budget.
    The Coast Guard expects the economic impact of this proposed rule 
to be minimal, and therefore a full regulatory evaluation is 
unnecessary. This proposed rule establishes safety zones limiting 
access to certain areas under 33 CFR part 165 within Sector Upper 
Mississippi River's AOR. The effect of this proposed 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 operations around the safety 
zones in advance. Deviation from the safety zones established through 
this proposed rulemaking may be requested from the COTP Upper 
Mississippi River or a designated representative and requests will be 
considered on a case-by-case basis.

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 certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this 
proposed rule would not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities.
    While some owners or operators of vessels intending to transit 
these safety zones may be small entities, for the reasons stated in 
section IV.A. above, this proposed rule would not have a significant 
economic impact on any vessel owner or operator.
    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.
    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 proposed 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. The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small entities that 
question or complain about this proposed rule or any policy or action 
of the Coast Guard.

C. Collection of Information

    This proposed rule would 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 proposed 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 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. If 
you believe this proposed 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 proposed rule would not 
result in such an expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule 
elsewhere in this preamble.

F. Environment

    We have analyzed this proposed 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 made 
a preliminary determination 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 involves rules 
establishes safety zones limiting access to certain areas under 33 CFR 
165 within Sector Upper Mississippi River's AOR. Normally such actions 
are categorically excluded from further review under paragraph 34(h) of 
Figure 2-1 of Commandant Instruction M16475.lD. A preliminary 
environmental analysis checklist and Categorical Exclusion 
Determination are 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 proposed 
rule.

G. Protest Activities
