Coast Guard June 22, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Coast Guard is establishing two temporary safety zones on Muskegon Lake near Muskegon, Michigan. These zones are intended to restrict vessels from two portions of Muskegon Lake due to the 2010 Muskegon Summer Celebration Air Show. These temporary safety zones are necessary to protect the surrounding public and vessels from the hazards associated with an air show.

The Stena Drilling and Cianbro companies will replace three bow thrusters on the vessel STENA FORTH, a 748-foot drill ship, while at anchor in Penobscot Bay, Maine. The nature of the repairs require water depths of at least 120 feet in a sheltered environment, precluding the use of anchorages and limiting alternative locations along the East Coast where the repairs could be made. This temporary safety zone is necessary to ensure the safety of the ship's crew and the maritime public by prohibiting all unauthorized vessels and waterway users from entering within a 100 yard radius around the STENA FORTH while it is at anchor for repairs.
