SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The City of San Francisco Public Works 
Department has requested a temporary change to the operation of the 3rd 
Street Drawbridge, mile 0.0, over China Basin, at San Francisco, CA. 
The drawbridge navigation span provides 3 feet vertical clearance above 
Mean High Water in the closed-to-navigation position. In accordance 
with 33 CFR 117.149, the draw opens on signal if at least one hour 
notice is given. Navigation on the waterway is recreational.
    The drawspan will be secured in the closed-to-navigation position 
from 5 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on August 23, 2015, to allow participants to 
cross the bridge during the San Francisco Giant Race event. This 
temporary deviation has been coordinated with the waterway users. No 
objections to the proposed temporary deviation were raised.
    Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed position may 
do so at anytime. The bridge can be operated upon one hour advance 
notice for emergencies requiring the passage of waterway traffic. There 
is no alternate route for vessels to pass through the bridge in the 
closed position. The Coast Guard will also inform waterway users 
through our Local and Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the change in 
operating schedule for the bridge so that vessels can arrange their 
transits to minimize any impact caused by the temporary deviation.
    In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridge must return to 
its regular operating schedule immediately at the end of the effective 
period of this temporary deviation. This deviation from the operating 
regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

    Dated: July 30, 2015.

District Bridge Chief, Eleventh Coast Guard District.
