Abstract
The United States Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is amending its regulations to establish three danger zones in the waters of Carr Creek and Whitehall Bay in the vicinity of the Naval Support Activity Annapolis. The danger zone in Carr Creek is necessary to enable safe operation of the United States Naval Academy firing range and to reflect the routine and periodic usage of the firing range for training Sailors, Midshipmen, and law enforcement personnel. The two danger zones in Whitehall Bay are necessary to enable the safe operation of the United States Naval Academy firing range and to reflect irregular and infrequent usage of the range for training Sailors, Midshipmen, and law enforcement personnel. The firing range faces Carr Creek and, during times of operation, may present a danger to vessels located in the proposed danger zones.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The United States Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is amending
its regulations to establish three danger zones in the waters of Carr
Creek and Whitehall Bay in the vicinity of the Naval Support Activity
Annapolis. The danger zone in Carr Creek is necessary to enable safe
operation of the United States Naval Academy firing range and to
reflect the routine and periodic usage of the firing range for training
Sailors, Midshipmen, and law enforcement personnel. The two danger
zones in Whitehall Bay are necessary to enable the safe operation of
the United States Naval Academy firing range and to reflect irregular
and infrequent usage of the range for training Sailors, Midshipmen, and
law enforcement personnel. The firing range faces Carr Creek and,
during times of operation, may present a danger to vessels located in
the proposed danger zones.
DATES: Effective 30 days after date of publication in the Federal
Register.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In response to a request by the Naval
[[Page 35410]]
Support Activity Annapolis (NSAA), and pursuant to its authorities in
Section 7 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1917 (40 Stat. 266; 33
U.S.C. 1) and Chapter XIX of the Army Appropriations Act of 1919 (40
Stat. 892; 33 U.S.C. 3), the Corps is amending its regulations in 33
CFR part 334 to establish three danger zones in the waters of Carr
Creek and Whitehall Bay, Annapolis, Maryland. The danger zones are
necessary to enable the safe operation of the United States Naval
Academy firing range.
The proposed rule was published in the December 5, 2022 (88 FR
74348) edition of the Federal Register. The <a href="http://regulations.gov">regulations.gov</a> docket
number was COE-2022-0009. Concurrently, a local public notice for the
proposed danger zone was sent out from the Baltimore District. Comments
received during the initial 30-day public notice focused on the
physical location and siting of the firing range, the general need for
the danger zones and enforcement mechanisms if established, effects of
the danger zones on public access to Greenbury Point, and consideration
of alternatives such as relocating the firing range. Several commenters
requested an extension of the comment period for the proposed rule.
Recognizing the considerable interest in the proposed action, the
Baltimore District re-opened the public notice comment period from 19
January 2023 until 5 March 2023 to coincide with the re-opened comment
period for the proposed rule in the January 19, 2023, edition of the
Federal Register (88 FR 3372), Docket Number COE-2022-0009.
Approximately 142 comments were received. Those comments are summarized
below, with the Corps' response to those comments.
Many commenters questioned the location of the existing danger
zones and the firing range's conformity with range regulations.
At the time of creation in 1963, the partially baffled 50-year
rifle range was sited properly with existing regulations and this
request is an effort to conform with DOD range design criteria that was
not published at the time of design and creation of the outdoor range.
Unified Facilities Criteria 4-179-02, require surface danger zones for
non-fully baffled ranges like the one at NSAA. These requirements are
outlined at relevant sections of UFC 4-179-02. Further, there are no
regulations currently in place giving the Navy the legal authority to
prohibit individuals from entering, or removing individuals from waters
of Carr Creek and Whitehall Bay during range operations. The
establishment of these danger zones would give Navy the legal authority
to ensure public safety during periods when the range is active. The
Corps also recognizes that the NSAA safety team is taking steps to
modernize the safety precautions at the range, such as the design of a
fully baffled 50-yard firing range on NSA Annapolis. On September 29,
2023, the Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Washington
awarded a contract to Raymond Pond Full-Service Solutions, Conyers,
Georgia, to design the fully baffled range. If the design is eventually
funded, this regulation would serve as a temporary measure to ensure
public safety and to comply with existing regulation until the range is
fully baffled.
Several commenters questioned the need for the danger zones and
wanted clarification on what enforcement mechanisms would be in place
once the danger zones are established. Many commenters stated that
United States Coast Guard (USCG) firing range announcements only occur
on certain channels and many mariners to do not receive the local
notice to mariners.
Concerning the need for the danger zones, this request comes in
response to a safety deficiency that was identified by NSAA's Safety
Department in 2019 due to a lack of established surface danger zones
around a non-fully baffled firing range and continued issues with
members of the public disregarding current safety precautions. The
Corps has determined that the safety deficiency identified around a
non-fully baffled firing range and concerns regarding public safety are
sufficient justification for the establishment of the danger zones.
NSAA is making a good faith effort to come into compliance with the
Unified Facilities Criteria 4-179-02, Small Arm Ranges, which notes
that surface danger zones are required for non-fully baffled ranges.
Further, the enforcement measures and procedures for the proposed
danger zones are the same process that NSAA currently uses and no
changes in enforcement will occur as a result of this regulation. NSAA
will advertise the firing schedule for each danger zone in the weekly
Fifth CG District's Local Notice to Mariners. In addition, the NSAA
will post the danger zones closure schedule on its official Navy
website and Facebook page. If the danger zones are established, they
will be charted on NOAA Nautical Charts to ensure that the public is
aware of their location in Carr Creek and Whitehall Bay.
Many commenters questioned the effects of the danger zone on public
access to Greenbury Point and voiced concerns about additional closures
to Greenbury Point because of this proposed regulation. A few
commenters stated that this proposal is an attempt to find a work
around for a new golf course that is proposed and vocally opposed by
local citizens.
The Corps is not evaluating any restrictions in place on Greenbury
Point, or any other area that is not waters of the U.S. area, as our
regulatory authority is limited to the proposed establishment of danger
zones in Carr Creek and Whitehall Bay, per DA regulations 33 CFR 334.4.
The proposed Danger Zones will allow the Commanding Officer at NSAA to
continue to safeguard personnel, both military and civilian, and will
be a benefit to public safety.
Several commenters were concerned about Danger Zones 2 and 3 in the
proposed regulation, with few commenters opposed to the restrictions in
Carr Creek. The comments in reference to Danger Zones 2 and 3 expressed
concerns related to recreational and commercial boating access and
safety concerns in a narrower navigation channel during times when
Danger Zones 2 and 3 are active.
The proposed regulation will allow NSAA to legally engage with
watercraft, which they have been doing without formal authority/
regulation for the last 50 years. This regulation will have minimal
effect, if any effect, on navigation through Whitehall Bay and access
to Carr Creek. The proposed regulation will limit the closure of Danger
Zones 2 and 3 to no more than 10 times per calendar year. When the
range is not operational, persons, vessels, and other craft can enter,
transit, drift, moor and anchor in the designated danger zones without
permission of NSAA.
Many commenters questioned the environmental impacts from the
firing range, specifically, the range's compliance with environmental
and EPA standards, lead contamination from discharged munitions, and
impacts to water quality that may affect drinking water.
The Corps regulates the discharge of dredged or fill material into
waters of the United States under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.
The inadvertent firing of errant ammunition into the water does not
meet the definition of fill, i.e., it is expected that the very limited
amount of errant ammunition inadvertently fired into the water would
not change the bottom elevation of Carr Creek or Whitehall Bay, or any
aquatic resources located on Greenbury Point. The discharge of
ammunition is regulated by the DOD's Munitions Response Program, and
investigations would occur if the range closed. EPA also has
regulations to protect health
[[Page 35411]]
and human safety when discharging hazardous ammunitions; however, that
is not an authority that has been delegated to USACE. Furthermore, NSAA
has indicated that the risk of projectiles leaving the range is
extremely small given the impact berm and use of small arms
ammunitions; therefore, it is unlikely that the range has resulted in a
major quantity of ammunition entering into the waters of Carr Creek and
Whitehall Bay or onto Greenbury Point.
A few commenters questioned if the NSAA had evaluated alternative
range sites rather than implementing the danger zones. Other commenters
questioned if NSAA could use an indoor or local firing range,
recommended that the NSAA fully baffle the firing range, and asked if
NSAA could create a downrange perm to prevent bullets from exiting the
range.
Alternatives to implementation of the danger zones and other
outdoor range safety precautions are continuously evaluated by NSAA.
Relocation of the range is not feasible, as proximity to the brigade of
midshipmen is of paramount importance to ensure they receive mandatory
firearms training in a timely and efficient manner. Alternate range
locations are not readily available in the local area. Personnel from
several federal and state agencies, such as the Secret Service, FBI,
Reserve Units, and Maryland State Police, regularly utilize NSAA's
outdoor ranges for training and qualification purposes due to the lack
of other options in the local area. Further, NSAA continues to request
funds for a fully baffled shooting range. Since relocation is not
feasible, indoor and digital ranges are not readily available, and
funds are not yet available to construct a fully baffled range, the
Corps has determined that the establishment of danger zones in the
waters of Carr Creek and Whitehall Bay are reasonable and necessary to
ensure public safety and to ensure that NSAA is in compliance with DOD
outdoor range design, such as the Unified Facilities Criteria 4-179-02,
Small Arms Ranges, which states danger zones are required for non-fully
baffled ranges as a risk mitigation measure.
Many commenters stated that the restrictions in Danger Zones 2 and
3 would affect crabbers and commercial fishermen. Other commenters
stated that the closures would create a financial hardship for
watermen, stated that the range will need to coordinate with local
watermen to avoid significant economic impact, and questioned if firing
could be limited to times when crabbing is closed.
NSAA has a responsibility to provide safe public access while
balancing the operational use of the outdoor range. Per the regulation,
closure of Danger Zones 2 and 3 is limited to no more than 10 times per
calendar year and NSAA is responsible for furnishing in advance the
firing schedule to the Commander, Fifth Coast Guard District, for
publication in a local notice to mariners. The regulation cannot
contain a detailed description of the times, dates and extent of
restriction as various factors sometimes preclude the establishment of
firing schedules, including weather and environmental factors, shifting
military operational schedules, and ongoing maintenance on the impact
berm at the range. It is therefore unreasonable to restrict range
operations to only the period of December through March. The proposed
approximate frequency of closures in Whitehall Bay and the
comprehensive notification of danger zone activation schedules will
minimize any major economic impact if crabbers and commercial fisherman
are aware of restrictions in these danger zones ahead of time. When the
range is not operational, persons, vessels, and other craft can enter,
transit, drift, moor and anchor in the designated danger zones without
permission of NSAA. Further, Department of the Army (DA) regulations
state the USACE should ensure that the danger zones should not
unreasonably interfere or restrict the food fishing industry. Danger
Zones 2 and 3 are to be operational no more than 10 times per calendar
year, which means that the waterway will be open for unfettered access
and fishing approximately 97% of the year. Given the frequency of
closures in Danger Zones 2 and 3 (restricted to no more than 10 times
per calendar year), the local notice to mariners, and other areas of
Whitehall Bay that will be available for fishing and crabbing even when
the range is operational, the Corps has determined that the proposed
danger zones will not unreasonably interfere or restrict the food
fishing industry.
A few commenters stated that there were deficiencies in the Corps
PN and that it did not include sufficient information to give a clear
understanding of the proposed action. Other commenters stated that the
public notice comment period should be extended, and that the
applicant's request does not comply with 33 CFR 334.4 establishment and
amendment procedures.
According to 33 CFR 334.4, the Corps PN must include sufficient
information to give a clear understanding of the proposed actions and
should include the following: applicable statutory authority, a
reasonable comment period, applicant name, name and telephone number of
the Corps employee whom additional information concerning the proposal
may be obtained, project description and purpose, and a map of
sufficient detail to show the boundaries of the areas and its
relationship to the surrounding area.
On 5 December 2022, the Baltimore District issued an initial 30-day
PN. In addition, as part of proposed rulemaking, HQ USACE posted the
proposed regulation concurrently in the Federal Register for public
comment, Docket Number COE-2022-0009, with a comment period ending 4
January 2023. The Corps recognizes that there was a typo in our PN,
which stated that the PN comment period ended on 4 January 2022,
however, this did not interfere with the public's ability to submit
comments. In response to public comments received and recognizing the
considerable interest in the proposed action, the Baltimore District
re-opened the PN comment period from 19 January 2023 until 5 March 2023
to coincide with the re-opened comment period for the proposed rule in
the Federal Register. The Corps reviewed the initial PN and extended PN
and has determined that the information in the PN gives a clear
understanding of the proposed actions and all other requirements listed
above were included in both PN's. The PN clearly describes the purpose
and need to enable safe operation of the United States Naval Academy
firing range and to reflect the routine and periodic usage of the
firing range for training Sailors, Midshipmen, and law enforcement
personnel. The map included in the PN clearly shows the boundaries of
the proposed danger zones and the language in the proposed regulation
further clarifies the waterbodies where Danger Zones 1, 2, and 3 will
occur.
The Corps is not evaluating closures at the US Naval property at
Greenbury Point as that is an independent decision by the installation.
Therefore, it is not part of the danger zone action being reviewed by
the Corps and not required to be labeled on the map. Further, the Corps
PN was distributed in accordance with 33 CFR 325.3 (d)(1), which states
that PNs should be sent to the applicant, to appropriate city and
county officials, adjoining property owners, tribal representatives,
concerned federal agencies, conservation organizations, River Basin
Commissions, and United States Senators and Representatives. In
addition to the Corps PN mailing list, which contains over 460
interested parties, to include several River Basin Commissions, federal
agencies, city and
[[Page 35412]]
county officials, tribal representatives, and conservation
organizations, the PN was also distributed to Congressman John
Sarbanes, Senator Benjamin Cardin, and Senator Chris Van Hollen, the
Annapolis Mayor, nearby commercial marinas, homeowner associations, and
several Anne Arundel County officials. In addition, the proposal was
coordinated directly with the USFWS, Maryland DNR, NMFS, Maryland
Department of the Environment, Maryland Historical Trust, the Delaware
Tribe, and EPA. Any comments received from these agencies are
summarized in Section B. In an effort to reach more than just adjoining
property owners, the Corps sent PN postcards describing the proposal
and where to find more information to over 300 waterfront property
owners on Mill Creek, portions of the Severn River and portions of
Whitehall Bay. The waterfront property owners were those that the Corps
determined would be most affected by this proposal.
A few commenters questioned NSAA's plan to hold public meetings,
stated concerns about the installation's encroachment into public
waters, and requested that the Corps review specific inspection reports
that have been publicly denied by NSAA. Other commenters wanted to know
how much NSAA would spend on patrol boats and expressed concern about
the effects of firing range noise within the community and on downtown
businesses.
Throughout the comment period, NSAA responded to the public's
comments and concerns in an attempt to clarify misconceptions and
answer questions regarding the proposed regulation. NSAA emphasized
that the surface danger zones in Whitehall Bay, which were the majority
of the concern, would only be in effect one to four times a year and
has provided that information to all parties who have contacted NSAA to
discuss the proposed regulation.
The establishment of danger zones in the waters of Carr Creek and
Whitehall Bay are reasonable and necessary to ensure public safety and
to ensure that NSAA is in compliance with DOD outdoor range design,
such as the Unified Facilities Criteria 4-179-02, Small Arms Ranges,
which states danger zones are required for non-fully baffled ranges as
a risk mitigation measure. NSAA is responsible for furnishing the
firing schedule in advance to the Commander, Fifth Coast Guard
District, for publication in a local notice to mariners. The Corps is
not evaluating any restrictions and effects outside of 33 CFR 334, as
our Regulatory authority is limited to the proposed establishment of
danger zones in Carr Creek and Whitehall Bay, per DA regulations
located in 33 CFR 334.4. The Corps has determined that this regulation
will have minimal effect on noise as the use of the range facility has
not changed and this request is an effort to conform with DOD range
design criteria. The proposed danger zones will allow the Commanding
Officer at NSAA to continue to safeguard personnel, both military and
civilian and will be a benefit to public safety.
After receipt of the June 24, 2022 proposal, the Corps made a
preliminary determination that the proposed rule does not require the
preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement, and that an
environmental assessment would be prepared for the final rule. The
regulations governing the National Environmental Policy Act do not
require draft environmental assessments to be available for public
comment. Federal agencies are only required to solicit public comments
during the preparation of Environmental Impact Statements. Given the
administrative nature of the proposed rule and the substance of the
comments received, we have determined that an environmental assessment
is the appropriate mechanism for complying with National Environmental
Policy Act requirements. Public input on the proposed action was
solicited using Federal Register noticing and local public noticing.
Public comments received in response to the notices were documented and
fully considered during final agency decision making.
Procedural Requirements
a. Review Under Executive Order 12866. This rule is issued with
respect to a military function of the Department of Defense and the
provision of the Executive Order 12866 do not apply.
b. Regulatory Flexibility Act, as Amended by the Small Business
Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq. This
rule has been reviewed under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (Pub. L.
96-354), which requires the preparation of a regulatory flexibility
analysis for any regulation that will have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities (i.e., small
businesses and small governments). The Corps determined that the
establishment of the new danger zones will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. For an
analysis of potential economic impacts of this rule, please see the
regulatory analysis in the environmental assessment.
c. Review under the National Environmental Policy Act. An
environmental assessment (EA) has been prepared. We have concluded that
the establishment of three danger zones in the vicinity of the Naval
Support Activity Annapolis will not have a significant impact to the
quality of the human environment and, therefore, preparation of an
environmental impact statement is not required. The final EA and
Finding of No Significant Impact may be reviewed at the Baltimore
District Office.
d. Unfunded Mandates Act. This rule does not impose an enforceable
duty among the private sector and, therefore, is not a federal private
sector mandate and is not subject to the requirements of Section 202 or
205 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (Pub. L. 104-4, 109 Stat. 48, 2
U.S.C. 1501 et seq.). We have also found, under Section 203 of the Act,
that small governments will not be significantly or uniquely affected
by this rule.
e. Congressional Review Act. The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C.
801 et seq., generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the
agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes
a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the
Comptroller General of the United States. The Corps will submit a
report containing the final rule and other required information to the
U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller
General of the United States. The rule will take effect 30 days after
it is published in the Federal Register. This final rule is not a
``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
