SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background Information and Regulatory History

    On April 24, 2017, we published a notice of proposed rulemaking 
(NPRM) entitled Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Banana River, Indian 
Harbour Beach, FL in the Federal Register (82 FR 18877) to solicit 
comments on the proposed rulemaking concerning the request to change 
the operating schedule. Minimal comments were received. The City of 
Indian Harbour Beach, FL requested to have the comment period re-opened 
as they believed their constituency did not have awareness of the 
initial notice and comment period. On October 23, 2017, we published a 
notice of proposed rulemaking, reopening comment period entitled 
``Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Banana River, Indian Harbour Beach, 
FL'' in the Federal Register (82 FR 48939).
    Due to the numerous comments received both for and against the 
proposed rule, on February 20, 2018, the Coast Guard published a notice 
of temporary deviation from regulation; request for comments entitled 
``Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Banana River, Indian Harbour Beach, 
FL'' in the Federal Register (83 FR 7110). The purpose of this 
temporary deviation was to test the proposed schedule change to 
determine whether a permanent change is appropriate to better balance 
the needs of maritime and vehicle traffic.

Withdrawal

    The Coast Guard received 199 comments, of those, 130 were against 
the proposal, 65 were in favor of the proposed change, three suggested 
removing the bridge in its entirety or build a new one, and one was 
unrelated to the proposed rule. The comments in favor of the proposal 
generally felt that placing the bridge on a schedule would help 
alleviate vehicular traffic on the bridge. The comments to remove or 
rebuild the bridge are not considered viable options. Upon reviewing 
the comments against the proposed change, concern was expressed that 
the change would increase navigation delays, introduce unnecessary 
hazards to navigation by limiting the bridge openings and create longer 
bridge openings in an area with a high volume of recreational boaters. 
The Coast Guard acknowledges all of the above safety concerns, and for 
that reason, we feel that any benefits of the proposed schedule change 
at the Mathers Bridge do not outweigh the additional hazards to vessels 
and mariners transiting the area around the bridge. The current 
regulation as written in 33 CFR 117.263 shall remain in effect.
