The
California Department of Transportation
has requested a temporary change to the
operation of the Isleton Drawbridge,
mile 18.7, over Sacramento River, at
Isleton, CA. The drawbridge navigation
span provides a vertical clearance of 15
feet above Mean High Water in the
closed-to-navigation position. The draw
opens on signal from May 1 through
October 31 from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. and
from November 1 through April 30 from
9 a.m. to 5 p.m. At all other times the
draw shall open on signal if at least four
hours notice is given to the drawtender
at the Rio Vista bridge across the
Sacramento River, mile 12.8, as required
by 33 CFR 117.189(a). Navigation on the
waterway is commercial and
recreational.
Either leaf of the double bascule
drawspan may be secured in the closedto-navigation position from 7 a.m., June
19, 2012 to 6 p.m. on August 17, 2012,
to allow Caltrans to conduct painting
and maintenance on the bridge. The
opposite leaf will continue to operate
normally, providing unlimited vertical
clearance and 83 feet horizontal
clearance between leafs. A work
platform will be installed below the
secured leaf, reducing vertical clearance
by 6 feet. This temporary deviation has
been coordinated with waterway users.
No objections to the proposed
temporary deviation were raised.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the drawbridge must return to its regular
operating schedule immediately at the
end of the designated time period. This
deviation from the operating regulations
is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.
