Jkt 244001
temporary deviation from the current
operating regulation that governs the
Southern Boulevard (SR 700/80) Bridge
across the Atlantic Intracoastal
Waterway, mile 1024.7, at Palm Beach,
FL. The deviation is necessary to
facilitate the installation of a temporary
lift bridge adjacent to the existing
bascule bridge, which will be used
during the bridge replacement of the
Southern Boulevard Bridge. The
existing bridge is a double-leaf bascule
bridge with a vertical clearance of 14
feet at mean high water in the closed to
navigation position. The temporary lift
bridge will have a vertical clearance of
14 feet in the closed position and 65 feet
in the lifted position at mean high
water.
The existing bridge operating
regulation is set out in 33 CFR
117.261(w). Under this temporary
deviation, the bridge will remain in the
closed to navigation position from 7
a.m. on April 10, 2018 through 6 p.m.
on April 16, 2018. From 6:01 p.m. on
April 16, 2018 through 6 p.m. on April
30, 2018, both the existing bascule
bridge and the temporary lift bridge will
open with a four (4) hour advanced
notice to the bridge tender. The vertical
clearance will be reduced to 65 feet
until the completion of the bridge
replacement project.
The Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway is
used by a variety of vessels including
U.S. government vessels, small
commercial vessels, recreational vessels
and tugs and barge traffic. The Coast
Guard has carefully considered the
restrictions with waterway users in
publishing this temporary deviation.
For the duration of the temporary lift
bridge installation, 7 a.m. on April 10,
2018 through 6 p.m. on April 16, 2018,
vessels will not be allowed to pass
through the bridge for safety reasons.
From 6:01 p.m. on April 16, 2018
through 6 p.m. on April 30, 2018,
vessels able to pass through the bridge
in the closed position may do so at any
time. The bridge will not be able to open
for emergencies 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 vessel operators 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
temporary deviation. This deviation
