on May 1, 2020, to midnight on October 15, 2020. Due to COVID19 Staffing, an issue publishing was delayed; but we utilized local stakeholder and Local Notice to Mariner outreach to solicit comments. We did not receive any comments. On July 6, 2021, we published in the Federal Register 86
FR 23880 a notice of proposed rulemaking and we received no comments during the 60-day comment period.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority 33 U.S.C. 499. Rainy River and Rainy Lake serve as the border between the United States of America and Canada. This bridge is a single leaf, bascule type railroad bridge that provides a horizontal clearance of 125 feet. The water level on Rainy Lake and under the bridge is controlled by a hydro-electric dam facility at International Falls, Minnesota, thus charted datum is based on the water level surface of Rainy Lake when the gauge at Fort Frances, Canada, reads 1107.0 feet resulting in a variable vertical clearance of 6 to 10 feet in the closed position. The railroad bridge carries significant train traffic across the international border. Rainer, Minnesota, is a customs port-of-entry.
IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes and the Final Rule As discussed in section II we published two documents in the Federal Register soliciting comments from the public and did not receive any comments.
V. Regulatory Analyses We developed this 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 protesters.
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.
This rule has not been designated a significant regulatory action, under Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, it has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget OMB.
This regulatory action determination is based on the ability that vessels can still transit the bridge given advanced notice or on signal depending on the season.
