In addition to updating the list of marine events held annually in the Eleventh Coast Guard District, the Coast Guard is amending the special local regulations by standardizing the language and format of listed events. When these special local regulations are activated, and thus subject to enforcement, this rule will restrict vessels from transiting inside the regulated area.
