Taylor Q. Lam, Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Captain of the Port, San Francisco.
SUMMARY:
foot radius of the fireworks launch site which is located on the Hudson River, Manhattan, NY, in the vicinity of the Hudson River Park and Pier 76. This safety zone is needed to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment from the potential hazards during a fireworks display on November 18, 2021. Entry of vessels or persons into, transiting through, mooring, or anchoring within this zone are prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port New York.
DATES: This rule is effective from 9:30
p.m. through 11:30 p.m. on November 18, 2021.

The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary rule without prior notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section 4a of the Administrative Procedure Act APA 5
U.S.C. 553b. This provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those procedures are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. Under 5 U.S.C.
553bB, the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for not publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking NPRM
with respect to this rule because doing so would be impracticable and contrary to the public interest. The final details for this event were not known to the Coast Guard until there was insufficient time to publish an NPRM. Thus, delaying the effective date of this rule to wait for a comment period to run would be impracticable because it would inhibit the Coast Guards ability to

protect the public and vessels from the hazards associated with a barge based fireworks display. The expeditious implementation of this rule is in the public interest because it will help ensure the safety of those involved in displaying the fireworks, the spectators, and users of the waterway during the fireworks event.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553d3, the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for making this rule effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal Register. Delaying the effective date of this rule would be impracticable and contrary to the public interest because the safety zone must be established for the fireworks display on November 18, 2021, to mitigate the potential safety hazards associated with a fireworks display in this location.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule The Coast Guard is issuing this rule under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034
previously 33 U.S.C. 1231. The Captain of the New York COTP has determined that potential hazards associated with this fireworks display, on November 18, 2021, will pose a significant risk to public safety and property. This rule is needed to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment in the navigable waters within the fallout zone immediately before, during, and after the fireworks display.
IV. Discussion of the Rule This rule establishes a temporary safety zone on all navigable waters within a 600 foot radius of a barge located at approximate position 404539.4 N, 740035.8 W on the Hudson River, Manhattan, NY, in the vicinity of the Hudson River Park and Pier 76. No vessel or person will be permitted to enter the safety zone between 9:30 p.m. through 11:30 p.m.
on November 18, 2021. The duration of the zone is intended to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment in these navigable waters during the fireworks display. No vessel or person will be permitted to enter the safety zone without obtaining permission from the COTP or a Designated Representative.
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 protestors.
