Western Interior Alaska Federal Subsistence Regional Advisory Council Meeting, 22725 [2010-10136]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 83 / Friday, April 30, 2010 / Proposed Rules Dated: April 8, 2010. G.T. Blore, Rear Admiral, U.S. Coast Guard, Commander, Thirteenth Coast Guard District. Withdrawal wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with PROPOSALS_PART 1 NPRM proposed to change current regulations so that Burlington Northern Railroad, the owner of the Chambers Creek Bridge, would only have been required to raise the draw of the bridge between 3:30 p.m. and 7 a.m. everyday if at least two hours of notice is provided. At all other times the draw would have been required to be raised on signal. Forest Service The NPRM is being withdrawn because of multiple objections to the change from users of the waterway in question and, in particular, the clients of the marina upstream of the Chambers Creek Bridge. The primary point of objection was that 3:30 p.m. was too early in the day, especially in summer boating season, to require a two-hour notice. This would pertain mostly to vessels returning to moorage at the end of a day of boating. The Coast Guard received a total of 17 written responses. At least seven boaters suggested that a two-hour notice outside daylight hours would be feasible or a seasonal change outside the peak boating season. A dozen respondents pointed out that the draw records cited in the NPRM did not cover the peak summer months of boating. These records were no longer available from the bridge owner. Seven responses also noted that boaters often group together for a single draw opening thereby reducing the number of openings that otherwise would have been tallied for single-vessel passages. Additionally, several comments noted that tide elevations are a significant factor at Chambers Creek. Many lower tides stop boat traffic altogether and would fail to coincide favorably with the proposed hours. No less than eleven responses cited numerous failures of the bridge owner to operate according to the existing regulations. The chief violations were reported as the absence of drawtenders and unreasonable delays to openings. At least two boat owners observed that cell phone coverage is not adequate for telephone contact by vessels returning to moorage from popular boating locations in Puget Sound that are two hours travel time from the marina. Several comments were concerned with delayed access of fireboats in the event of a marina fire. 36 CFR Part 242 Authority This action is taken under the authority of 33 U.S.C. 499; 33 CFR 1.05– 1; Department of Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
