Drawbridge Operation Regulations; Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW), Scotts Hill, NC
The Coast Guard proposes to change the drawbridge operation regulations of the Figure Eight Swing Bridge, at AIWW mile 278.1, at Scotts Hill, NC.

At all times, the draw will continue to open on signal for commercial vessels. The proposed change would result in more efficient use of the bridge.
