13520
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 46 / Monday, March 9, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
Monday through Friday, except Federal
holidays, the draws need not be opened.
(3) The following bridges are remotely
operated, are required to operate a
radiotelephone, and shall open as noted
in this section; The South First Street
Bridge, mile 1.78.
(4) No commercial vessel over 50 tons
shall be held between any bridge at any
time and must be passed as soon as
possible.
(5) From November 2nd through April
15th, all drawbridges over the
Kinnickinnic River will open on signal
if a 12-hour advance notice is provided.
The Canadian Pacific Railroad Bridge
at Mile 1.74 over the Burnham Canal,
and the Sixteenth Street Bridge, mile
2.14, over the Menomonee River are
closed by regulation and do not need to
open for the passage of vessels.
During non-special event weekdays
the owners of all affected bridges will
provide records showing the dates and
times of bridge openings and the type of
vessels the bridge opened for. The city
of Milwaukee will also provide
information on the vehicle congestion
caused or improved by the temporary
deviation by providing the number of
vehicles waiting for the bridge to close
after a vessel passes.
Because we took into consideration
the comments from the ANPRM, vehicle
counts, and past three years of vehicle
counts, we believe the test deviation
will have a limited impact on vessels.
The city of Milwaukee held public
discussions about the potential rule
change through public works meetings
conducted throughout the summer of
2018. Prior to asking for our review, this
office reached out to several commercial
vessels which operate on the affected
waterways prior to the release of the
ANPRM. These actions were aimed at
developing a test deviation that took all
pertinent comments and concerns under
consideration.
Vessels that can safely pass under the
bridge without an opening may do so at
any time. The Coast Guard will also
inform the users of the waterways of the
change in operating schedule for the
bridges through our Local and Broadcast
Notices to Mariners.
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
from the operating regulations is
authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.
II. Public Participation and Request for
Comments

essential to effective rulemaking, and
