Equipment on scene will be the NORTHSTAR VOYAGER, monitoring VHF-FM CH 13 & 16. The VOYAGER is approximately 65 feet wide. Channel widths are approximately 800 feet, which provides ample room for vessel transits on either side, even when the VOYAGER is positioned near the center of the channel. Exact clearance will vary depending on the vessel’s position at the time. Conservative estimate is two slack tide cycles (approximately 6 hours). The first slack tide would be used to pull pipe, and the second to move the VOYAGER. In shallower locations, it may be possible to complete both within a single slack tide, depending on current conditions (particularly if the current is moving away from the bridge). |
