official patrol vessels. The Coast Guard may be assisted by other
Federal, State, or Local law enforcement agencies in enforcing this
regulation.
This document is issued under authority of 33 CFR 165.1123 and 5
U.S.C. 552(a). In addition to this document in the Federal Register,
the Coast Guard will provide the maritime community with advance
notification of this enforcement period via the Local Notice to
Mariners and local advertising by the event sponsor.
If the Captain of the Port or his designated representative
determines that the regulated area need not be enforced for the full
duration stated on this document, he or she may use a Broadcast Notice
to Mariners or other communications coordinated with the event sponsor
to grant general permission to enter the regulated area.
