Safety Zones, Security Zones, and Special Local Regulations

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DOT.

ACTION: Notice of temporary rules issued.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This document provides required notice of substantive rules 
adopted by the Coast Guard and temporarily effective between January 1, 
1994 and March 31, 1994, which were not published in the Federal 
Register. This quarterly notice lists temporary local regulations, 
security zones, and safety zones, which were of limited duration and 
for which timely publication in the Federal Register was not possible.

DATES: This notice lists temporary Coast Guard regulations that become 
effective and were terminated between January 1, 1994 and March 31, 
1994, as well as several regulations which were not included in the 
previous quarterly list.

ADDRESSES: The complete text of these temporary regulations may be 
examined at, and is available on request, from Executive Secretary, 
Marine Safety Council (G-LRA), U.S. Coast Guard Headquarters, 2100 
Second Street, SW., Washington, DC 20593-0001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lieutenant Commander, Thomas R. 
Cahill, Executive Secretary, Marine Safety Council at (202) 267-1477 
between the hours of 8 a.m. and 3 p.m., Monday through Friday.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: District Commanders and Captains of the Port 
(COTP) must be immediately responsive to the safety needs of the waters 
within their jurisdiction; therefore, District Commanders and COTPs 
have been delegated the authority to issue certain local regulations. 
Safety zones may be established for safety or environmental purposes. A 
safety zone may be stationary and described by fixed limits or it may 
be described as a zone around a vessel in motion. Security zones limit 
access to vessels, ports, or waterfront facilities to prevent injury or 
damage. Special local regulations are issued to assure the safety of 
participants and spectators at regattas and other marine events. Timely 
publication of these regulations in the Federal Register is often 
precluded when a regulation responds to an emergency, or when an event 
occurs without sufficient advance notice. However, the affected public 
is informed of these regulations through Local Notices to Mariners, 
press releases, and other means. Moreover, actual notification is 
provided by Coast Guard patrol vessels enforcing the restrictions 
imposed by the regulation.
    Because mariners are notified by Coast Guard officials on-scene 
prior to enforcement action, Federal Register notice is not required to 
place the special local regulation, security zone, or safety zone in 
effect. However, the Coast Guard, by law, must publish in the Federal 
Register notice of substantive rules adopted. To discharge this legal 
obligation without imposing undue expense on the public, the Coast 
Guard periodically publishes a list of these temporary special local 
regulations, security zones, and safety zones. Permanent regulations 
are not included in this list because they are published in their 
entirety in the Federal Register. Temporary regulations may also be 
published in their entirety if sufficient time is available to do so 
before they are placed in effect or terminated. These safety zones, 
special local regulations and security zones have been exempted from 
review under E.O. 12866 because of their emergency nature, or limited 
scope and temporary effectiveness.
    The following regulations were placed in effect temporarily during 
the period January 1, 1994 and March 31, 1994, unless otherwise 
indicated.
Thomas R. Cahill,
Lieutenant Commander, Executive Secretary, Marine Safety Council.
