Regulated Navigation Area and Safety Zone, Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal, Romeoville, IL
The Coast Guard proposes to establish a temporary regulated navigation area and safety zone on the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal near Romeoville, IL.

Entry into this zone would be prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Long Island Sound.
