Background and Purpose
The Bayville Bridge has a vertical
clearance in the closed position of 9 feet
at mean high water and 16 feet at mean
low water. The existing drawbridge
operation regulations listed at 33 CFR
117.5, require the bridge to open on
signal at all times.
The bridge owner, County of Nassau,
Department of Public Works, requested
a change to the drawbridge operation
regulations to help relieve the bridge
owner from the burden of crewing the
bridge during time periods when the
bridge seldom receives requests to open.
Under this temporary deviation the
Bayville Bridge at mile 0.1, across Mill
Neck Creek, shall open on signal after at
least a two hour advance notice is given
by calling the number posted at the
bridge during the following periods:
From May 25, 2007 through October
31, 2007, between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m.;
From November 1, 2007 through
November 20, 2007, on weekdays
between 5 p.m. and 7 a.m., and on
weekends.
At all other times, the bridge will
open on signal per 33 CFR 117.5.
This deviation from the operating
regulations is authorized under 33 CFR
117.35.
