Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 136 / Tuesday, July 20, 2021 / Rules and Regulations E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 2 U.S.C. 15311538 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 Directive 02301, 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. 43214370f, 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 implementation of regulations within 33
CFR part 100 for 18 hours. It is categorically excluded from further review under paragraph L61 of Appendix A, Table 1 of DHS Instruction Manual 0230100101, Rev. 1. A
Memorandum for Record supporting this determination is available in the docket. For instructions on locating the docket, see the ADDRESSES section of this preamble.
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.
