SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The AK Railroad Bridge, across Arthur Kill,

has a vertical clearance in the closed position of 31 feet at MHW and 
35 feet at MLW. The existing drawbridge operation regulations are 
listed at 33 CFR 117.702.
    The waterway supports both commercial and recreational navigation 
of various vessel sizes. The operator of the bridge, Conrail, requested 
a temporary deviation to facilitate scheduled maintenance, tie and 
miter rail replacement at the bridge. The bridge must remain in the 
closed position to perform this maintenance.

    Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed positions may

There are no alternate routes for vessel traffic. The bridge can be 
opened in an emergency.
    The Coast Guard will also inform the users of the waterway through 
our Local 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.
