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

AGENCY:

Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION:

Notice of temporary rules issued.

SUMMARY:

This document provides required notice of substantive rules issued by the Coast Guard and temporarily effective between October 1, 2004 and December 31, 2004, that were not published in the

Federal Register.

This quarterly notice lists temporary special local regulations, security zones, safety zones, and regulated navigation areas, all of limited duration for which timely publication in the

Federal Register

was not possible.

DATES:

This document lists temporary Coast Guard rules that because effective and were terminated between October 1, 2004, and December 31, 2004.

ADDRESSES:

The Department of Transportation Docket Management Facility maintains the public docket for this notice. Documents indicated in this notice will be available for inspection or copying at the Docket Management Facility, U.S. Department of Transportation, Room PL-401, 400 Seventh Street, SW., Washington, DC 20593-0001 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays. You may electronically access the public docket for this notice on the Internet at

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

For questions on this notice contact LT Jeff Bray, Office of Regulations and Administrative Law, telephone (202) 267-2830. For questions on viewing, or on submitting material to the docket, contact Renee Z. Wright, Acting Program Manager, Docket Operations, telephone (202) 493-0402.

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 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 round a vessel in motion. Security zones limit access to prevent injury or damage to vessels, ports, or waterfront facilities and may also describe a zone around a vessel in motion. Special local regulations are issued to enhance the safety of participants and spectators at regattas and other marine events. Regulated navigation areas established regulations for vessels navigating within the area. Timely publication of these rules in the

Federal Register

is often precluded when a rule responds to an emergency, or when an event occurs without sufficient advance notice. The affected public is, however, 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 beginning of the effective period, mariners were personally notified of the contents of these special local regulations, security zones, safety zones or regulated navigation areas 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 special local regulations, security zones, safety zones and regulated navigation areas. 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 safety zones, special local regulations, security zones and regulated navigation areas listed in this notice have been exempted from review and under Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, because of their emergency nature, or limited scope and temporary effectiveness.

The following rules were placed in effect temporarily during the period from October 1, 2004, through December 31, 2004, unless otherwise indicated.

Dated: January 24, 2004.

Chief, Office of Regulations and Administrative Law.
