SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Town of Hempstead Department of Public 
Safety requested and the bridge owner, Nassau County Department of 
Public Works, concurred with this temporary deviation from the normal 
operating schedule to facilitate a public event, the Annual Salute to 
Veterans and Fireworks Display.
    The Long Beach Bridge, mile 4.7, across Reynolds Channel has a 
vertical clearance in the closed position of 22 feet at mean high water 
and 24 feet at mean low water. The existing bridge operating 
regulations are found at 33 CFR 117.799(g).
    Reynolds Channel is transited by commercial and recreational 
traffic.
    Under this temporary deviation, the Long Beach Bridges may remain 
in the closed position between 9:30 p.m. and 11:59 p.m. on June 25, 
2016 (rain date: June 26, 2016 between 9:30 p.m. and 11:59 p.m.).
    Vessels able to pass under the bridge in the closed position may do 
so at anytime. The bridges will not be able to open for emergencies and 
there are no immediate alternate routes 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.
