Port of Miami Anchorage Area; Atlantic Ocean, Miami Beach, FL
Document Number: 2016-10850
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2016-05-10
Agency: Coast Guard, Department of Homeland Security
The Coast Guard proposes to revise the Miami Anchorage. Under the proposal, the Miami Anchorage would be divided into two separate anchorage areas. This action is necessary to reduce potential damage to threatened coral posed by anchoring vessels. This proposed revision would update the regulation to clarify the regulatory text and to reflect the establishment of two anchorage areas instead of one area currently in place. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking.
