DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
Coast Guard
33 CFR Part 110
[Docket No. USCG-2014-0142]
RIN 1625-AA01
Anchorage Regulations: Special Anchorage Areas, Marina del Rey
Harbor, California
AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking; notice of public meeting and
reopening of the comment period.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard announces a November 20, 2014 public meeting
to receive comments on a notice of proposed rulemaking entitled
``Anchorage Regulations: Subpart A--Special Anchorage Areas, Marina del
Rey Harbor, California '' that was published in the Federal Register on
May 28, 2014. As stated in that document, the Coast Guard proposes to
disestablish the special anchorage area at the north end of the main
channel in Marina del Rey Harbor, California. This proposed action
would remove the anchorage area from Coast Guard regulations. This
proposed rule would not prevent vessels from anchoring in the harbor
during storms, stress, or other emergency situations. We have reopened
the comment period which will now end November 28, 2014.
DATES: A public meeting will be held on Thursday, November 20, 2014,
from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in Marina del Rey, CA to provide an
opportunity for oral comments. The comment period for this rulemaking
is reopened through November 28, 2014.
ADDRESSES: The public meeting will be held at the Burton W. Chace Park
Community Room, 13650 Mindanao Way, Marina del Rey, CA 90292, telephone
310-305-9595.
