secured open. This temporary deviation
has been coordinated with the waterway
users. No objections to the proposed
temporary deviation were raised.
Vessels able to pass through the
bridge in the closed position may do so
at anytime. The bridge will be able to
open for emergencies upon 15 minutes
advance notice and there is no
immediate alternate route for vessels to
pass. The Coast Guard will also inform
the users of the waterways through our
Local and Broadcast Notices to Mariners
of the change in operating schedule for
the bridge so that vessels can arrange
their transits to minimize any impact
caused by the temporary deviation.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the drawbridge must return to its regular
operating schedule immediately at the
end of the effective period of this
