SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Nassau County Department of Public Works 
requested this temporary deviation from the normal operating schedule 
to perform electrical and mechanical upgrades.
    The Bayville Bridge, mile 0.1, across the Mill Neck Creek has a 
vertical clearance in the closed position of 9 feet at mean high water 
and 16 feet at mean low water. The existing bridge operating 
regulations are found at 33 CFR 117.800.
    The waterway is transited by one commercial user and recreation 
vessel traffic.
    Under this temporary deviation, the Bayville Bridge may remain in 
the closed position from 7:00 a.m. on January 11, 2016 to 3:30 p.m. on 
January 15, 2016.
    Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed position may 
do so at any time. The bridge will not be able to open for emergencies 
and there is no immediate alternate route for vessels to pass.
    The Coast Guard will also inform the users of the waterways 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: December 17, 2015.
