                ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.
                -----------------------------------------------------------------------
                SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is proposing to modify special local
                regulations and annual recurring marine events and safety zones
                regulations for firework displays and swim events in Coast Guard Sector
                Long Island Sound Captain of the Port Zone. When enforced, these
                special local regulations and safety zones will restrict vessels from
                transiting regulated areas during certain annually recurring events.
                The proposed amendments to the special local regulations and safety
                zones are intended to expedite public notification and ensure the
                protection of the maritime public and event participants from the
                hazards associated with certain marine events. We invite your comments
                on this proposed rulemaking.
                DATES: Comments and related material must be received by the Coast
                Guard on or before May 21, 2020.
                ADDRESSES: You may submit comments identified by docket number USCG-

                U.S.C. United States Code
                II. Background, Purpose, and Legal Basis
                 Swim events, fireworks displays, and marine events are held on an
                annual recurring basis on the navigable waters within the Coast Guard
                Sector Long Island Sound COTP Zone. The Coast Guard has established
                special local regulations and safety zones for some of these annually
                recurring events on a
                [[Page 22050]]
                case by case basis to ensure the protection of the maritime public and
                event participants from potential hazards.
                 The COTP Sector Long Island Sound proposes to amend 33 CFR 100.100
                Special Local Regulations; Regattas and Boat Races in the Coast Guard
                Sector Long Island Sound Captain of the Port Zone, Table to Sec.
                100.100 and 33 CFR 165.151 Safety Zones; Fireworks Displays, Air Shows,
                and Swim Events in the Captain of the Port Long Island Sound Zone,
                Table 1 to Sec. 165.151.
                 The marine events listed therein include air shows, fireworks
                displays, and other marine related events requiring a limited access
                area restricting vessel traffic for safety purposes. The proposed
                amendments to the tables will more accurately reflect the dates of
                marine events based on historical occurences.
                 Issuing individual regulations for each new safety zone, amendment,
                or removal of an existing safety zone due to minor date fluctuations
                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 recurring safety zone regulations. Event
                sponsors desiring to hold an event not listed in the table for the
                Sector Long Island Sound area of responsibility may seek permission for
                a regulated area for their event through a request to the phone number
                or email listed in the above FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section.
                 The purpose of this rulemaking is to ensure the safety of vessels
                and the navigable waters before, during, and after a scheduled event.
                The Coast Guard is proposing this rulemaking under authority in 46
                U.S.C. 70034 (previously 33 U.S.C. 1231).
                 The Coast Guard encourages the public to participate in this
                proposed rulemaking through the comment process so that any necessary
                changes can be identified and implemented in a timely and efficient
                manner. The Coast Guard will address all public comments accordingly,
                whether through response, additional revision to the regulation, or
                otherwise.
                III. Discussion of Proposed Rule
                 Parts 100 and 165 of 33 CFR contain regulations establishing
                special local regulations and safety zones to restrict vessel traffic
                for the safety of persons and property. Section 100.100 establishes
                Special Local Regulations to ensure the safety and security of marine
                related events, participants, and spectators in the Sector Long Island
                Sound AOR. From time to time, these sections require amendment to
                properly advertise the recurring safety zones in the Sector Long Island
                Sound AOR.
                 The Coast Guard proposes to revise regulations in 33 CFR 100.100
                Special Local Regulations; Regattas and Boat Races in the Coast Guard
                Sector Long Island Sound Captain of the Port Zone, Table to Sec.
                100.100 as indicated below. The amendments would involve changes to the
                cited dates of seven events listed in the table. The amendments are as
                follows:

                 position 41[deg]10'35'' N,

                ------------------------------------------------------------------------
                 The effect of this proposed rule would be to restrict general
                navigation in the safety zones during these events. Vessels intending
                to transit the designated waterway through the safety zones will only
                be allowed to transit the area when COTP or a designated representative
                has deemed it safe to do so or at the completion of the events. The
                proposed annually recurring safety zones are necessary to provide for
                the safety of life on navigable waters of the U.S. during the events.
                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 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 13771 directs agencies to control
                regulatory costs through a budgeting process. 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 (OMB), and pursuant to OMB guidance it is exempt
                from the requirements of Executive Order 13771.
                 This regulatory action determination is based on the size,
                location, and duration of the safety zones. These safety zones are
                limited in size and duration, and are usually positioned away from high
                vessel traffic areas. Moreover, the Coast Guard would issue a Broadcast
                Notice to Mariners via VHF-FM marine channel 16 about the zones and the
                rule would allow vessels to seek permission to enter the zones. Vessel
                traffic would also be able to request permission from the COTP or a
                designated representative to enter the restricted area.
                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 call or email 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 call or email 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 Directive 023-01, Rev. 1, associated implementing
                instructions, and Environmental Planning COMDTINST 5090.1 (series),
                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 amending
                the dates of events that are already listed in 33 CFR 100.100 and 33
                CFR 165.151 and removing listed events from 33 CFR 165.151. Normally
                such actions are categorically excluded from further review under
                paragraph L60b and L61 of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual
                023-01-001-01, Rev. 1. We seek any comments or
                [[Page 22056]]
                information that may lead to the discovery of a significant
                environmental impact from this proposed rule.
                G. Protest Activities
                 The Coast Guard respects the First Amendment rights of protesters.
                Protesters are asked to call or email 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.
