The Coast Guard is modifying the Marine Air Terminal, LaGuardia Airport Security Zone to expand the existing security zone boundary north along the Rikers Island Bridge to the intersecting point on the southern tip of Rikers Island then east to the western end of LaGuardia Airport.

The Coast Guard proposes to modify the operating schedule that governs the SR 413/Burlington-Bristol Bridge across the Delaware River, mile 117.8, between Burlington, NJ and Bristol, PA.
