| LAA/RNA | New Rochelle Harbor North Approach – Middle Channel/General/LAA/RNA/COTP Restriction | General/LAA/RNA/COTP Restriction From: 2024-12-16 To: 2027-05-31 The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary safety zone for certain waters of Long Island Sound in the vicinity of the Glen Island Approach Bridge, New Rochelle, NY, for construction vessels and machinery involved in the rehabilitation project of the bridge. The safety zone is needed to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment from potential hazards associated with the bridge construction between December 2, 2024, through May 27, 2027. When enforced, this regulation prohibits persons and vessels from being in the safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of the Port New York or a designated representative. DATES: This rule is effective without notice from December 3, 2024, through 5 p.m. on May 27, 2027. For the purposes of enforcement, actual notice will be used from midnight on December 2, 2024, until December 3, 2024. This rule will only be enforced during periods when construction operations at the bridge are in progress. Comments and related material must be received by the Coast Guard on or before March 3, 2025. ADDRESSES: To view documents mentioned in this preamble as being available in the docket, go to https://www.regulations.gov, type USCG-2024-0956 in the search box and click “Search.” Next, in the Document Type column, select “Supporting & Related Material.” FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this rule, call or email Jeffrey Yunker, Waterways Management Division, U.S. Coast Guard Sector New York; telephone 718-354-4195, email [email protected]. IV. Discussion of the Rule This rule establishes a safety zone from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m. each day starting on midnight December 2, 2024, through May 27, 2027. The safety zone will only be enforced during periods when construction operations at the Glen Island Bridge rehabilitation project are in progress. The anticipated dates for the windows of full channel closures are from 7 a.m. on December 2, 2024, through 5 p.m. on December 20, 2024; from 7 a.m. on February 3, 2025, through 5 p.m. on May 22, 2025; and from 7 a.m. on October 2, 2025, through 5 p.m. on April 29, 2026. The Coast Guard will make notice of the safety zone via the Local Notice to Mariners and issue a Broadcast Notice to Mariners via marine channel 16 (VHF-FM) as soon as practicable in advance of these scheduled closures. All these dates are tentative and subject to change due to weather, supply chain delays, or other unforeseen circumstances. This rule remains effective through May 27, 2027, in case the project is delayed due to unforeseen circumstances.
