District.
Discussion of Notice
This notice confirms the stand-up of
Sector Northern New England, Sector
Boston, Sector Long Island Sound, and
Sector New York. Boundaries of areas of
responsibility for Sectors Boston and
Long Island Sound changed on the date
of stand-up. Boundaries for Sector New
York and Sector NNE will change
simultaneously on June 30, 2005. The
restructuring described in this notice is
internal to the Coast Guard. The
purpose of this organizational change is
to strengthen unity of command in our
port, waterway and coastal areas of
operation.
The following information applies
equally to Sector Northern New England
(NNE), Sector Boston, Sector Long
Island Sound and Sector New York.
Each Sector will contain a single
integrated command center, which
provides a common operating picture.
Each Sector is composed of three
departments: Namely, the Response
Department, Prevention Department,
and the Logistics Department.
Where needed, the Search and Rescue
(SAR) boundary will be changed to align
with the COTP boundary for each sector
as described in this notice. Each sector’s
area of responsibility for SAR will be
maintained in accordance with the
District SAR Plan.
Each Sector Commander is vested
with all the rights, responsibilities,
duties, and authority of a Group
Commander and Commanding Officer,
Marine Safety Office, as provided for in
Coast Guard regulations, and is the
successor in command to the
Commanding Officer of the relevant
Marine Safety Office and the
Commander of the relevant Group. For
Sector New York, this merger of
responsibility occurred previously,
upon the creation of Activities New
York in 1996. Within the relevant zones
described below, each Sector
Commander is designated: (a) Captain of
the Port (COTP); (b) Federal Maritime
Security Coordinator (FMSC); (c)
Federal On-Scene Coordinator (FOSC)
consistent with the National
Contingency Plan; (d) Officer In Charge,
Marine Inspection (OCMI); and (e)
VerDate jul<14>2003
18:11 Jun 24, 2005
Jkt 205001
Search and Rescue Mission Coordinator
(SMC).
The First District Commander may
also designate the Sector Commander as
mission coordinator for search and
rescue and law enforcement operations
beyond the exclusive economic zone.
Each Deputy Sector Commander is
designated alternate COTP, FMSC,
FOSC, SMC, and acting OCMI. For each
Sector, separate continuity of operations
orders have been issued providing that
all previous Marine Safety Office,
Group, or Activities practices and
procedures will remain in effect until
superseded by the relevant Sector
Commander. The continuity of
operations orders address existing COTP
regulations, orders, directives and
policies.
As a result of the Sector realignment,
two previous Coast Guard Groups are
now Sector Field Offices. Specifically,
Sector Field Office Moriches replaced
the previously existing Group Moriches,
which is incorporated into Sector Long
Island Sound. Sector Field Office
Southwest Harbor replaced the
previously existing Group Southwest
Harbor and is incorporated into Sector
NNE.
1. Sector Northern New England

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Drafting Information
The principal person involved in drafting this document is LTJG
Daniel Huelsman, USCG, First Coast Guard District.
Discussion of Notice
This notice confirms the stand-up of Sector Northern New England,
Sector Boston, Sector Long Island Sound, and Sector New York.
Boundaries of areas of responsibility for Sectors Boston and Long
Island Sound changed on the date of stand-up. Boundaries for Sector New
York and Sector NNE will change simultaneously on June 30, 2005. The
restructuring described in this notice is internal to the Coast Guard.
The purpose of this organizational change is to strengthen unity of
command in our port, waterway and coastal areas of operation.
The following information applies equally to Sector Northern New
England (NNE), Sector Boston, Sector Long Island Sound and Sector New
York. Each Sector will contain a single integrated command center,
which provides a common operating picture. Each Sector is composed of
three departments: Namely, the Response Department, Prevention
Department, and the Logistics Department.
Where needed, the Search and Rescue (SAR) boundary will be changed
to align with the COTP boundary for each sector as described in this
notice. Each sector's area of responsibility for SAR will be maintained
in accordance with the District SAR Plan.
Each Sector Commander is vested with all the rights,
responsibilities, duties, and authority of a Group Commander and
Commanding Officer, Marine Safety Office, as provided for in Coast
Guard regulations, and is the successor in command to the Commanding
Officer of the relevant Marine Safety Office and the Commander of the
relevant Group. For Sector New York, this merger of responsibility
occurred previously, upon the creation of Activities New York in 1996.
Within the relevant zones described below, each Sector Commander is
designated: (a) Captain of the Port (COTP); (b) Federal Maritime
Security Coordinator (FMSC); (c) Federal On-Scene Coordinator (FOSC)
consistent with the National Contingency Plan; (d) Officer In Charge,
Marine Inspection (OCMI); and (e) Search and Rescue Mission Coordinator
(SMC).
The First District Commander may also designate the Sector
Commander as mission coordinator for search and rescue and law
enforcement operations beyond the exclusive economic zone. Each Deputy
Sector Commander is designated alternate COTP, FMSC, FOSC, SMC, and
acting OCMI. For each Sector, separate continuity of operations orders
have been issued providing that all previous Marine Safety Office,
Group, or Activities practices and procedures will remain in effect
until superseded by the relevant Sector Commander. The continuity of
operations orders address existing COTP regulations, orders, directives
and policies.
As a result of the Sector realignment, two previous Coast Guard
Groups are now Sector Field Offices. Specifically, Sector Field Office
Moriches replaced the previously existing Group Moriches, which is
incorporated into Sector Long Island Sound. Sector Field Office
Southwest Harbor replaced the previously existing Group Southwest
Harbor and is incorporated into Sector NNE.
1. Sector Northern New England
Sector Northern New England (Sector NNE) is located at 259 High
Street, South Portland, Maine. Sector NNE is responsible for all Coast
Guard missions in the following Marine Inspection and Captain of the
Port Zone. The zone starts at the boundary of the Massachusetts and New
Hampshire coasts at 42[deg]52.3' N latitude, 70[deg]49.0' W longitude
and proceeds seaward on a line bearing 090[deg]T to the outermost
extent of the EEZ; thence northerly and westerly along the outermost
extent of the EEZ and the Canadian border to longitude 74[deg]39.0' W
within New York; thence due south to latitude 43[deg]36.0' North;
thence easterly through Whitehall, NY to the Vermont border; thence
southerly along the Vermont border to the intersection of the Vermont-
New York-Massachusetts boundaries; thence east along the Vermont-
Massachusetts and New Hampshire-Massachusetts boundaries to the point
of origin.
Command and control for Station Burlington will transfer from
Sector New York (formerly Activities New York) to Sector Northern New
England as of June 30, 2005. The break point at Whitehall, NY allows a
natural split between lake and river (Hudson River) traffic for marine
safety missions and is also the established break for search and rescue
(SAR) and aids to navigation (AtoN) missions between Station
Burlington, Station New York and Aids to Navigation Team Saugerties.
All existing missions and functions performed by MSO Portland,
Group Portland and Group Southwest Harbor have been realigned under
this new organizational structure as of June 30, 2005, and MSO
Portland, Group Portland, and Group Southwest Harbor no longer exist as
separate organizational entities.
The area of responsibility for Sector Northern New England will
also incorporate Sector Field Office Southwest Harbor units to include
Coast Guard Station Jonesport, Station Eastport, Station Southwest
Harbor, Station Rockland, Aids to Navigation Team Southwest Harbor, CGC
Moray (WPB), CGC Tackle (WYTL), CGC Bridle (WYTL), CGC Thunder Bay
(WTGB), and Loran Station Caribou. SFO South West Harbor will retain
its current authorities and functions with command and control over
subordinate units for the time being.
The following is updated address and point of contact information
to facilitate requests from the public:
Name: Sector Northern New England.
Address: Commander, U.S. Coast Guard Sector Northern New England,
259 High Street, South Portland, ME 04106.

2. Sector Boston
Sector Boston is located at 427 Commercial Street, Boston,
Massachusetts. All existing missions and functions performed by Marine
Safety Office (MSO) Boston and Group Boston have been realigned under
this new organizational structure as of March 31, 2005, and MSO Boston
and Group Boston no longer exist as separate organizational entities.
