Drawbridge Operation Regulation; St. Johns River, Putnam County, FL
The Coast Guard proposes to modify the operating schedule that governs the Buffalo Bluff CSX Railroad Bridge across the St. Johns River, mile 94.5, at Satsuma, Putnam County, FL. The proposed rulemaking would allow the bridge to be remotely monitored and operated from the CSX Railroad Bridge across the Ortega River (McGirts Creek) located at mile 1.1 on the Ortega River. The proposed rule would also allow the draw to remain in the full, open position unless a train is in the circuit.
