Anchorage Regulation; San Juan Bay, San Juan, PR

What it does

The Coast Guard is proposing to amend the special anchorage regulation in the Bah[iacute]a de San Juan, PR, known as Anchorage D, by revising the anchorage boundaries. The current boundaries of Anchorage D overlap with deep draft commercial vessel traffic routes within the San Antonio Channel, causing a hazard to navigation. The proposed amendment to the special anchorage regulation is necessary to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment from hazards associated with vessel traffic transiting the San Antonio Channel. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking.
