Temporary Requirements for Notification of Arrival in U.S. Ports

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking; change of effective period of 
temporary rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard proposes to extend to March 31, 2003, the 
effective period for the temporary rule on notification of arrival 
requirements. Extension of the effective period would ensure sufficient 
time to complete the rulemaking. Continuing the temporary rule in 
effect while the permanent rulemaking is in progress will help to 
ensure the security of our ports and the uninterrupted flow of maritime 
commerce during that period.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Request for Comments

    We encourage you to participate in this rulemaking. This proposed 
rule would extend the effective period of the temporary final rule 
entitled ``Temporary Requirements for Notification of Arrival in U.S. 
Ports'' that was published in the Federal Register on October 4, 2001 
(66 FR 50565) and amended on November, 19, 2001 (66 FR 57877), on 
January 18, 2002 (67 FR 2571), and on May 30, 2002 (67 FR 3782). 
Comments and related materials addressing the extension of the 
effective period of the temporary rule should include your name and 
address, identify the docket number for this rulemaking (USCG-2001-
10689), indicate the specific section of this document to which each 
comment applies, and give the reason for each comment. You may submit 
your comments and material by mail, hand delivery, fax, or electronic 
means to the Docket Management Facility at the address under ADDRESSES; 
please submit your comments and material by only one means. If you 
submit them by mail or hand delivery, submit them in an unbound format, 
no larger than 81/2 by 11 inches, suitable for copying and electronic 
filing. If you submit them by mail and would like to know that they 
reached the Facility, please enclose a stamped, self-addressed postcard 
or envelope. We will consider all comments and materials received 
during the comment period. We may change this proposed rule in view of 
them.

Public Meeting

    We do not now plan to hold a public meeting. You may submit a 
request for one to the Docket Management Facility at the address under 
ADDRESSES explaining why one would be beneficial. If we determine that 
one would aid this rulemaking, we will hold one at a time and place 
announced by a later notice in the Federal Register.

Regulatory History

    On October 4, 2001, we published a temporary final rule entitled 
``Temporary Requirements for Notification of Arrival in U.S. Ports'' in 
the Federal Register (66 FR 50565). Subsequently, we published two 
corrections in the Federal Register [November 19, 2001 (66 FR 57877)] 
and [January 18, 2002 (67 FR 2571)]. On May 30, 2002, we extended the 
effective period of the temporary rule through September 30, 2002 (67 
FR 37682).

Background and Purpose

    We published a related notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to make 
permanent changes to the notice of arrival requirements [''Notification 
of Arrival in U.S. Ports'' June 19, 2002 (67 FR 41659)]. We expected 
the extension of the temporary rule through September 30, 2002, would 
have provided us enough time to complete the permanent changes to the 
notice of arrival requirements. Now, however, we propose to further 
extend the effective period of the temporary rule until March 31, 2003, 
to ensure sufficient time to complete the changes. Continuing the 
temporary rule in effect while the permanent rulemaking is in progress 
will help to ensure the security of our ports and the uninterrupted 
flow of maritime commerce during that period.

Regulatory Evaluation

    This proposal is not a ``significant regulatory action'' under 
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, 
and does not require an assessment of potential costs and benefits 
under section 6(a)(3) of that Order. It has not been reviewed by the 
Office of Management and Budget under that Order. It is not 
``significant'' under the regulatory policies and procedures of the 
Department of Transportation (DOT)[February 26, l979 (44 FR 11040)].
    As discussed in the preamble, the Coast Guard has temporarily 
changed the notice of arrival (NOA) regulations and proposes to extend 
the effective period of those requirements until March 31, 2003. When 
assessing the impact of the temporary requirements, we estimated that 
providing the Coast Guard with the additional information about 
passengers, crew, and cargo will impose minimal burden on vessels 
already complying with the notification requirements of 33 CFR part 
160, subpart C. As explained below, the total cost to extend the 
effective period of the temporary rule should not exceed $377,324:
    Cost and Burden. Coast Guard data on Notification of Arrival 
information for 1998 and 1999 were used to estimate the maximum 
populations that would be affected by this proposal. Table 1 
categorizes the affected vessel population into four sub-populations. 
They are:
     ``Non-AMVER/Non-Great Lakes Vessels''--vessels already 
required to comply with NOA regulations;
     ``AMVER''--vessels complying with the Automated Mutual 
Assistance Vessel Rescue system and that were exempt from NOA 
requirements prior to the temporary rule;
     ``Great Lakes Vessels''--vessels greater than 300 gross 
tons, on Great Lakes routes, that were exempt from NOA requirements 
prior to the temporary rule; and
     ``Vessels on Scheduled Routes''--vessels operating upon a 
route that is described in a schedule that is submitted to the Captain 
of the Port for each port or place of destination listed in the 
schedule. The table also sets out the number of vessels and their total 
number of U.S. port calls (arrivals) for each vessel sub-population.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* These estimates include vessels on scheduled routes that will experience about the same costs as the other
  vessels in this population.

    Vessels less than 300 gross tons making ports of call in the 
Seventh Coast Guard District have to file NOA reports with the COTP. 
This proposal would maintain the requirement, and the estimate of the 
vessels and port calls presented in Table 1 accounted for this special 
group.
    Before the temporary final rule, vessels had to file multiple NOA 
reports if they were visiting multiple U.S. ports on the same voyage. 
Under the temporary rule, vessels making calls to multiple U.S. ports 
do not have to file multiple NOA reports; rather, the temporary rule 
allows a single report listing all destinations in the United States 
along with estimated arrival dates for each port. The Coast Guard did 
not collect or maintain information on the number of vessels that made 
multiple U.S. port calls under separate NOA reports to estimate the 
number of consolidated reports under the temporary rule. The totals 
above, therefore, represent a conservative estimate, a ``worst-case 
scenario,'' of the numbers of vessels and NOA reports that would be 
affected by this proposal.
    Finally, vessels that make scheduled trips outside of their COTP 
zones would no longer be exempt from reporting requirements. We do not 
know how many of these vessels and port calls exist, though we know 
they are included in the population of non-AMVER/non-Great Lakes 
vessels. For the purposes of analysis, these vessels and port calls are 
included in the non-AMVER/non-Great Lakes population.

Cost of the Temporary Rule

    Minimal burden would be imposed on vessels whose applicability to 
the NOA reporting requirements was upheld by the temporary rule. The 
cargo, crew, and passenger information these vessels provide to the 
Coast Guard is already collected on a form submitted to the Immigration 
and Naturalization Services (INS) (INS form I-418). We assumed 10 
minutes (0.167 hours) would be spent retrieving and transmitting the 
cargo, crew, and passenger information. We assumed that there would be 
a $2 transmittal fee (fax, email, telephone, etc.) to provide this 
information to the Coast Guard. We assumed that clerical labor would 
complete these tasks at a cost of $31.00 per hour (loaded labor rate, 
2001). Based on 1998 and 1999 data, we estimated 31,644 port calls 
would be made over this extension period (6 months-until March 31, 
2003). The summary of unit costs and total rulemaking costs for non-
AMVER/non-Great Lakes vessels is presented in Table 2.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* These estimates include vessels on scheduled routes that will experience about the same costs as the other
  vessels in this population.

    Vessels that were exempt from NOA requirements before the original 
effective period of the temporary rule would, as a result of this 
proposal, continue to provide the Coast Guard with NOA reports in 
addition to providing the cargo, crew, and passenger information until 
March 31, 2003. These vessels (AMVER and vessels that transit only the 
Great Lakes) would incur cost by extending the effective period of the 
temporary rule that requires them to submit an NOA report. Based on the 
OMB-approved Collection of Information for NOA (OMB-2115-0557), we 
estimated that it would take 10 minutes (0.167 hours) to complete the 
report, plus an additional 5 minutes (0.083 hours) for the general 
description of the cargo. We assumed that clerical labor would complete 
the report at a cost of $31.00 per hour. Additionally, these vessels 
would need to develop and submit the cargo, crew, and passenger 
information. Based on information from the INS (OMB-1115-0083), it will 
require 60 minutes (1.000 hour) to complete both lists, for a total of 
75 minutes (1.250 hours) for the entire submission (NOA report, cargo 
description, crew and passenger information). There would be a $2 
transmittal fee to provide the information to the Coast Guard. Based on 
1998 and 1999 data, we estimated that 2,427 port calls would be made 
over the time period of this rulemaking. The summary of unit costs and 
total rulemaking costs for AMVER/Great Lakes vessels is presented in 
Table 3.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Detail may not calculate to total due to independent rounding.

    Finally, all vessels affected would continue to communicate with 
the National Vessel Movement Center (NVMC) upon departure from a U.S. 
port when their next port of call is also a U.S. port. Vessels are to 
phone or fax the date of departure to the NVMC along with the name of 
the port just departed. The NVMC will transmit this information to the 
COTP in the next port of call. We assumed that reporting this would 
require 1 minute (0.017 hours) per departure and that clerical labor 
($31.00 per hour) would make the call or send the fax. We assumed the 
transmittal fee would be $1.00 per call/fax. There will be an estimated 
34,071 departures over the 6-month extension period of the temporary 
rule (until March 31, 2003). The cost and burden for notifying NVMC of 
the date of departure and last port of call is presented in Table 4.

Need for the Temporary Rule

    This proposal would ensure the timely receipt of advance 
information about vessels, cargo, and people entering U.S. ports and 
would help minimize disruption to commerce. The additional information 
required by this proposal would increase security and provide 
protection for the nation's ports and waterways. There would be some 
savings from the consolidated NOA submission for two or more 
consecutive arrivals at U.S. ports.

Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have 
considered whether this proposal would have a significant economic 
impact on a substantial number of small entities. 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 proposal 
would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of 
small entities. If you think that your business, organization, or 
governmental jurisdiction qualifies as a small entity and that this 
proposal will have a significant economic impact on it, please submit a 
comment to the Docket Management Facility at the address under 
ADDRESSES. In your comment, explain why you think it qualifies and how 
and to what degree this proposal would economically affect it.

Assistance for Small Entities

    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal 
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal 
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory 
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business

[[Page 48077]]

Regulatory Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions 
annually and rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If 
you wish to comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-
888-REG-FAIR (1-888-734-3247).

Collection of Information

    This proposal would extend the effective period of an existing 
collection of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 
U.S.C. 3501-3520). As defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(c), ``collection of 
information'' comprises reporting, recordkeeping, monitoring, posting, 
labeling, and other, similar actions. The title and description of the 
information collection, a description of those who would be required to 
collect the information, and an estimate of the total annual burden 
follow. The estimate covers the time for reviewing instructions, 
searching existing sources of data, gathering and maintaining the data 
needed, and completing and reviewing the collection.
    Title: Advance Notice of Vessel Arrival and Departure.
    OMB Control Number: 2115-0557.
    Summary of the Collection of Information: The Coast Guard requires 
pre-arrival messages from any vessel entering a port or place in the 
United States. This proposal would extend the effective period of the 
temporary notice of arrival requirements to March 31, 2003.
    Need for Information: To ensure port safety and security and to 
ensure the uninterrupted flow of commerce, the Coast Guard proposes to 
extend the effective period of the temporary notice of arrival 
requirements.
    Proposed Use of Information: Extending the NOA information reported 
would enable the control of vessel traffic, the development of 
contingency plans, and the enforcement of regulations.
    Description of the Respondents: The respondents are owners, agents, 
masters, operators, or persons in charge of vessels bound for or 
departing from U.S. ports.
    Number of Respondents: The existing OMB-approved collection number 
of respondents is 10,367. Extending the temporary rule would not 
increase the total number of respondents.
    Frequency of Response: The existing OMB-approved collection annual 
number of responses is 136,278. Extending the temporary rule would not 
increase the total number of responses.
    Burden of Response: The existing OMB-approved collection burden of 
response is 15 minutes (0.250 hours). Extending the temporary rule 
would not increase the burden.
    Estimate of Total Annual Burden: The existing OMB-approved 
collection total annual burden is 39,037 hours. Extending the temporary 
rule would not increase the total annual burden.
    As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3507(d)), we submitted a copy of this proposal to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for its review of the collection of 
information. Due to the circumstances surrounding this temporary rule, 
we asked for ``emergency processing'' of our request. We received OMB 
approval for the collection of information on September 26, 2001. It is 
valid until September 30, 2002, and we are requesting it be extended 
until March 31, 2003.
    We ask for public comment on the collection of information to help 
us determine how useful the information is; whether it can help us 
perform our functions better; whether it is readily available 
elsewhere; how accurate our estimate of the burden of collection is; 
how valid our methods for determining burden are; how we can improve 
the quality, usefulness, and clarity of the information; and how we can 
minimize the burden of collection.
    If you submit comments on the collection of information, submit 
them both to OMB and to the Docket Management Facility where indicated 
under ADDRESSES, by the date under DATES.
    You need not respond to a collection of information unless it 
displays a currently valid control number from OMB.

Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132, 
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on State or local 
governments and would either preempt State law or impose a substantial 
direct cost of compliance on them. We have analyzed this proposed rule 
under that Order and have determined that it does not have implications 
for federalism.

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 or more in any 
one year. Though this proposed rule would not result in such an 
expenditure, the effects of this rule are discussed elsewhere in this 
preamble.

Taking of Private Property

    This proposed rule would not effect a taking of private property or 
otherwise have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, 
Governmental Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected 
Property Rights.

Civil Justice Reform

    This proposed rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 
3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize 
litigation, eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

Protection of Children

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 13045, 
Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety 
Risks. This proposed rule is not an economically significant rule and 
does not create an environmental risk to health or risk to safety that 
may disproportionately affect children.

Indian Tribal Governments

    This proposed rule does not have tribal implications under 
Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal 
Governments, because it does 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.
    To help the Coast Guard establish regular and meaningful 
consultation and collaboration with Indian and Alaskan Native tribes, 
we published a notice in the Federal Register (66 FR 36361, July 11, 
2001) requesting comments on how to best carry out the Order. We invite 
your comments on how this rule might impact tribal governments, even if 
that impact may not constitute a ``tribal implication'' under the 
Order.

Energy Effects

    We have analyzed this proposed rule under Executive Order 13211, 
Actions Concerning Regulations that Significantly Affect Energy Supply, 
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ``significant 
energy action'' under that order because it is not a ``significant 
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to 
have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use 
of energy. It has not been designated by the

[[Page 48078]]

Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs as a 
significant energy action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement 
of Energy Effects under Executive Order 13211.

Environment

    We have considered the environmental impact of this proposed rule 
and concluded that under figure 2-1, paragraph (34)(a), of Commandant 
Instruction M16475.lD, this rule is categorically excluded from further 
environmental documentation. This proposed rule would extend the 
effective period of the changes to the requirements established in the 
notification of arrival regulations. They are procedural in nature and 
therefore are categorically excluded. A ``Categorical Exclusion 
Determination'' is available in the docket where indicated under 
ADDRESSES.
