DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
Coast Guard
33 CFR Part 165
[CGD-13-04-033]
RIN 1625-AA87
Security Zone Regulations; Elliot Bay and Lake Washington, WA
AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.
ACTION: Temporary final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is establishing temporary security zones
around the M/V ARGOSY VIRGINIA 5, M/V ARGOSY CELEBRATIONS AND P/C
OLYMPUS while underway, anchored, or moored on Lake Washington,
Washington. In addition, the Coast Guard is establishing temporary
security zones around Pier 70 and Amgen located on Elliott Bay and the
National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Sandpoint
Facility and Gates Residence located on Lake Washington. Entry into
these zones is prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port,
Puget Sound or his designated representatives. The Coast Guard is
establishing these temporary security zones around these waterways and
these vessels to provide safety and security during the National
Governors Association (NGA) Conference. The Captain of the Port, Puget
Sound, Washington is taking this action to safeguard the dignitaries,
official parties, VIP's and other participants (``attendees'')
attending the NGA Conference from terrorism, sabotage, or other
subversive acts. Entry into these zones is prohibited unless authorized
by the Captain of the Port.
DATES: This rule is effective from 11 a.m on July 17, through 2 a.m. on
July 19 2004, unless sooner cancelled by the Captain of the Port.
ADDRESSES: Documents as indicated in this preamble are available for
inspection or copying at the U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety Office

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Regulatory Information
We did not publish a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this
regulation. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good
cause exists for not publishing an NPRM. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the
Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for making this rule effective
less than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. Publishing
a NPRM would be contrary to public interest. It is also in the public
interest to have these regulations effective less than 30 days after
publication. This rule is needed to provide for the security of the
public, the NGA Conference and the conference attendees, and the safety
of the waterways due to the potential for hostile and violent acts
including from demonstrators protesting the NGA Conference. This
Temporary Final Rule is necessary for the Coast Guard as well as other
Federal, State and Local law enforcement officials to put appropriate
security measures in place in time for the start of the NGA Conference.
If normal notice and comment procedures were followed, national
security could be compromised.
Background and Purpose
The Coast Guard is establishing temporary security zone regulations
to safeguard designated vessels carrying NGA Conference attendees and
the venue areas established for the attendees from potential terrorism,
sabotage, or other subversive acts. These temporary security zones will
mitigate these potential threats and are necessary to protect the
public, conference attendees, law enforcement officers, maritime
transportation infrastructure and the flow of commerce on these
waterways. Representatives of the Captain of the Port Puget Sound,
Washington will enforce these security zones. The Captain of the Port
may be assisted by other federal, state and local agencies.
Discussion of Rule
This Temporary Final Rule establishes moving security zones around
certain vessels that will be used to transport conference attendees.
This Temporary Final Rule also establishes security zones in the
navigable waters of the United States around four different venues
located on Elliott Bay and Lake Washington. These security zones will
control vessel movements in and around these zones and they are
necessary to safeguard the NGA Conference attendees from terrorism,
sabotage, or other subversive acts. The security zones established by
this Temporary Final Rule are as follows: (1) All waters of Lake
Washington, Washington State, within a 200 yard radius centered on the
M/V ARGOSY VIRGINIA 5, M/V ARGOSY CELEBRATIONS AND P/C OLYMPUS while
these vessels are underway, anchored, or moored; (2) all waters of
Elliott Bay, Washington, within a 200 yard radius centered on
47[deg]37.6[min] N, 122[deg]22.5[min] W, near the Amgen facility, which
is located between Pier 90/91 and the grain terminal; (3) all waters of
Elliott Bay, Washington , within a 200 yard radius centered on
47[deg]36.88[min] N, 122[deg]21.45[min] W, which is the approximate
location of the end of Pier 70; (4) all waters of Lake Washington,
Washington State, within a 200 yard radius centered on 47[deg]41.3[min]
