publication in the Federal Register was not possible.

effective, primarily between July 2023 and September 2023, unless
otherwise indicated, and were terminated before they could be published
in the Federal Register.

online, under their respective docket numbers, at <a href="https://www.regulations.gov">https://www.regulations.gov</a>.

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
local 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 around a vessel in
motion. Security zones limit access to prevent injury or damage to
vessels, ports, or waterfront facilities. Special local regulations are
issued to enhance the safety of participants and spectators at regattas
and other marine events.
Timely publication of these rules in the Federal Register may be
precluded when a rule responds to an emergency, or when an event occurs
without sufficient advance notice. The affected public is, however,
often 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
end of the effective period, mariners were notified of the contents of
these safety zones, security zones, special local regulations,
regulated navigation areas or drawbridge operation regulations by Coast
Guard officials 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 safety zones, security zones, special local
regulations, regulated navigation areas and drawbridge operation
regulations. 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The following unpublished rules were placed in effect temporarily
during the period between July 2023 and September 2023 unless otherwise
indicated. To view copies of these rules, visit <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a> and
