Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 29 / Thursday, February 12, 2015 / Rules and Regulations
The closure has been requested to
ensure the safety of the increased
volumes of runners and spectators that
will be participating in the Half
Marathon on May 2, 2015. Under this
temporary deviation, the Route 50
Bridge will remain in the closed
position from 8 a.m. through 10:30 a.m.
Vessels that can pass under the bridge
without a bridge opening may do so at
all times. The vertical clearance in the
closed position is 13 feet above mean
high water. The bridge will not be able
to open in case of an emergency.
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.
Dated: February 4, 2015.

Drawbridge Operation Regulation;

Coast Guard, DHS.
ACTION: Notice of temporary deviation
from drawbridge regulation;
modification of effective date.
AGENCY:
The Coast Guard is modifying
the effective date of a published
temporary deviation from the operating
schedule that governs the Washington
State Route 529 (SR 529) twin bridge
south bound across the Snohomish
River, mile 3.6, at Everett, WA. The
modification of the date is necessary to
further facilitate mechanical adjustment
of newly installed bridge joints. This
deviation allows the bridges to remain
in the closed to navigation position for
four weeks.
DATES: The deviation published in the
Federal Register on November 17, 2014
(79 FR 68365) is effective without actual
notice from February 12, 2015 to 11
p.m. on March 4, 2015. For the purposes
of enforcement, actual notice will be
used from 7 a.m. on February 2, 2015,
until February 12, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
November 17, 2014, the Coast Guard’s
notice of temporary deviation from
regulations under the same docket
number, USCG–2014–0977 was
published in the Federal Register (79 FR
68365). That document resulted from
Washington State Department of
Transportation’s (WSDOT) request for a
temporary deviation, occurring from 8
a.m. on January 10, 2015 to 11 p.m. on
February 15, 2015, from the normal
operation of the drawbridge to perform
adjustments on bridge joints.
Subsequent to the approval of that
request, Washington State Department
of Transportation requested a
modification to the temporary deviation
for dates in early February, 2015
through early March, 2015 to complete
removal of old warn joints, install and
adjust new joints. Coordination between
all interested parties determined that all
work could be accomplished during one
scheduled closure occurring in early
February, 2015 to early March, 2015.
This new scheduling avoids two
separate deviations causing a longer
term impact on navigation. Therefore,
through this document, the Coast Guard
modifies the dates of the previously
approved temporary deviation. The
modification allows the drawbridge of
the SR 529 Twin Bridges south bound,
mile 3.6, crossing the Snohomish River
at Everett, WA, to open on demand with
at least twenty four hours of notice for
five days, and followed with a closedto-navigation position until early March,
2015. The deviation is effective from 7
a.m. on February 2, 2015, open on
demand with at least a twenty four
notice, until 6 a.m. on February 7, 2015.
The drawbridge will then be in the
closed-to-navigation position from 7

a.m. on February 7, 2015 until 11 p.m.
on March 4, 2015.
Notices of the deviation schedule will
be published in the Thirteenth Coast
Guard District Local Notice to Mariners
and will be broadcast via the Coast
Guard Broadcast Notice to Mariners
System. A Broadcast Notice to Mariners
will be used to update mariners of any
changes to the planned schedule for this
deviation.
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.

Notice of temporary deviation
from drawbridge regulation.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Coast Guard has issued a
temporary deviation from the operating
schedule that governs the Seattle
Department of Transportation (SDOT)
Fremont Bridge, across the Lake
Washington Ship Canal, mile 2.6, at
Seattle, WA. The Fremont Bridge is a
double leaf bascule bridge. This
deviation is necessary to allow the
bridge to operate in single leaf mode
while work crews conducting bridge
painting are onsite. This deviation
allows a double leaf opening with a five
hour advance notice. For all other
openings, one half of the bridge will
remain in the closed position while
reducing the vertical clearance of the
non-operating span by four feet to
account for the installation of a
moveable platform underneath the
bridge.

This deviation is effective
without actual notice from February 12,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Seattle
Department of Transportation (SDOT)
has requested a temporary deviation
from the operating schedule for the
Fremont Bridge, mile 2.6, crossing the
Lake Washington Ship Canal at Seattle,
WA. The deviation is necessary to
accommodate SDOT workers for a
bridge painting project. To facilitate this
event, the full draw of the bridge will
not open for vessel traffic unless a five
hour notice is provided to the bridge
operator. For all other openings, one
half of the bridge, or single leaf, will
remain in the closed position while
reducing the vertical clearance of the
non-operating span by four feet to
account for the installation of a
moveable platform underneath the
bridge.
The Fremont Bridge, mile 2.6,
provides a vertical clearance of 14 feet
(31 feet of vertical clearance for the
center 36 horizontal feet) in the closed
position. The clearance is referenced to
the mean water elevation of Lake
Washington. The normal operating
schedule for the Fremont Bridge is set
out in 33 CFR 117.1051 and states that
the bridge need not open from 7 a.m. to
9 a.m. and from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Monday through Friday except all
Federal holidays but Columbus Day for
any vessel of less than 1000 tons, unless
the vessel has in tow a vessel of 1000
gross tons or over. The normal operating
schedule for this bridge also requires
one hour advance notification for bridge
openings between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m.
daily. Waterway usage on the Lake

Washington Ship Canal ranges from
commercial tug and barge to small
pleasure craft.
Vessels able to pass through the
bridge in the closed positions may do so
at any time. The bridge will be able to
open one leaf, half of the draw span, for
emergencies. Furthermore, 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 designated time period. This
deviation from the operating regulations
is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.
