[Docket No. USCG-2016-0747]


Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Umpqua River, Reedsport, OR

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of deviation from drawbridge regulations.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard has issued a temporary deviation from the 
operating schedule that governs the US 101 Bridge across the Umpqua 
River, mile 11.1, at Reedsport, OR. The deviation is necessary to 
accommodate updating the electric control panels on the bridge. This 
deviation allows the US 101 Bridge to remain in the closed-to-
navigation position during upgrades.

DATES: This deviation is effective from 7 a.m. on August 16, 2016 until 
5 p.m. on August 18, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions on this 
temporary deviation, call or email Mr. Steven Fischer, Bridge 
Administrator, Thirteenth Coast Guard District; telephone 206-220-7282, 
email [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Oregon Department of Transportation 
requested that the US 101 Bridge, near Reedsport, Oregon, remain in the 
closed-to-navigation position to update the electric control panels. 
The US 101 Bridge crosses the Umpqua River at mile 11.1 and provides 36 
feet of vertical clearance above mean high water when in the closed-to-
navigation position. This deviation allows the US 101 Bridge to remain 
in the closed-to-navigation position and need not open for maritime 
traffic from 7 a.m. on August 16, 2016 until 5 p.m. August 18, 2016. 
The normal operating schedule of this bridge is detailed at 33 CFR 
117.893(a).
    Waterway usage on this part of the Umpqua River includes vessels 
ranging from occasional commercial tug and barge to small pleasure 
craft. ODOT has coordinated with local mariners in this regard, and no 
objections have been received. No immediate alternate route is 
available 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. Vessels which do not require an opening of the 
bridge may continue to transit beneath the bridge during this repair 
period.
    In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridge must return to 
its regular operating schedule immediately at the end of the designated 
time period. This deviation from the operating regulations is 
authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

    Dated: July 29, 2016.
Steven M. Fischer,
Bridge Administrator, Thirteenth Coast Guard District.
