II. Background Information and
Regulatory History
On August 2, 2019, we published a
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM)
entitled ‘‘Drawbridge Operation
Regulation; Atlantic Intracoastal
Waterway, Fort Pierce, FL’’ in the
Federal Register (84 FR 37810). There
were six comments received on the
NPRM. This NPRM was preceded by
two six-month test deviations published
in the Federal Register. On August 30,
2018, the Coast Guard published the
first Test Deviation entitled
‘‘Drawbridge Operation Regulation;
Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, Fort
Pierce, FL’’ in the Federal Register (83
FR 44233). The majority of the 113
comments received were in support of
scheduled openings; however, most felt
the bridge still opened too frequently.
Subsequently, on March 21, 2019, the
Coast Guard published an alternate Test
Deviation entitled ‘‘Drawbridge
Operation Regulation; Atlantic
Intracoastal Waterway, Fort Pierce, FL’’
in the Federal Register (84 FR 10411).
The 33 comments received were in favor
of the alternate test deviation.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority 33 U.S.C. 499. The A1A
North Causeway Bridge across the
AICW, mile 964.8 in Fort Pierce, St
Lucie County, FL is a bascule bridge. It
has a vertical clearance of 26 feet at
mean high water in the closed position
and a horizontal clearance of 90 feet.
The bridge currently operates under 33
CFR 117.5. The Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT), who owns and
operates the A1A North Causeway
Bridge, has requested a rule to allow for
scheduled drawbridge openings. There
has been an increase in vehicular traffic
over the bridge in recent years due to
residential development along the
beach. Placing the bridge on regularly
scheduled openings will allow for more
efficient and economical operation of
the bridge given the volume of vehicular
traffic crossing the bridge.

IV. Discussion of Comments, Changes
and the Final Rule
During the first test deviation, the
majority of 113 comments received were
in support of scheduled openings. The
test provided for the bridge to open on
signal except that from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Monday through Friday, with the
exception of Federal Holidays,
Saturdays and Sundays, the draw will
open three times per hour: on the hour,
20 minutes past the hour and 40
minutes past the hour. However, most
felt the bridge was still opening too
frequently. A review of the bridge
tender logs did not support the claim
that the bridge was opening too
frequently. However, the logs did show
the openings tended to be twice per
hour as opposed to three times per hour.
In addition, the majority of comments
recommended scheduled openings
during the evening and on weekends.
During the alternate test deviation, all
33 comments received were in favor of
the alternate operating schedule that
allowed for around the clock openings
on the hour and half hour.
Based on the comments received from
the test deviations, a NPRM was
published to allow for around the clock
openings on the hour and half hour. Of
the six comments received, five were in
favor of the scheduled openings. One
commenter felt that a twice per hour
opening was restrictive and may
compromise safe navigation due to tidal
flow. The commenter proposed two
schedules that would restrict bridge
openings during daylight hours and
provide on demand openings at all other
times. These proposals were similar to
the first test deviation. The Coast Guard
considered the options but determined
that the proposed rule strikes the correct
balance between relieving traffic
congestion while ensuring safe
navigation and therefore decided against
adopting the propsed suggestions.
It is the Coast Guard’s opinion that
this rule meets the reasonable needs of
marine navigation while having a
positive effect on vehicular traffic. The
rule allows for more efficient and
economical operation of the bridge.
V. Regulatory Analyses
We developed this rule after
considering numerous statutes and
Executive Orders related to rulemaking.

based on a number of these statutes and
Executive Orders and we discuss First
