Dignitary means the President or Vice President of the United States, or visiting heads of foreign states or governments. (c) Regulations. In accordance with the general regulations in 33 CFR VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:17 Sep 26, 2014 Jkt 232001 165.33, no person or vessel may enter or move within a security zone created by this section while that security zone is being enforced unless granted permission to do so by the Coast Guard’s First District Commander, the COTP New York, or the designated representative. Vessel operators and persons given permission to enter or operate in a security zone must comply with all directions given to them by the First District Commander, the COTP, or the designated representative.
