Background and Purpose

    On December 7, 1993, the U.S. Coast Guard Captain of the Port, New 
York established a safety zone in the waters near Bergen Point West 
Reach in the Kill Van Kull. This safety zone was in effect from 
December 7, 1993, until March 1, 1994. This safety zone placed 
restrictions in all waters of Kill Van Kull west of the Bayonne Bridge 
and east of Shooters Island.
    On January 24, 1994, the U.S. Coast Guard Captain of the Port, New 
York, received written notification that the U.S. Army Corps of 
Engineers certified this portion of the dredging project and that the 
dredging operations in this area were completed. Therefore, this rule
