SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    The Marine Parkway Bridge, mile 3.0, across the Rockaway Inlet, has 
a vertical clearance in the closed position of 55 feet at mean high 
water and 59 feet at mean low water. The existing bridge operating 
regulations are found at 33 CFR 117.795(a).
    The waterway is transited by commercial barge traffic of various 
sizes.
    The bridge owner, MTA Bridges and Tunnels, requested a temporary 
deviation from the normal operating schedule to replace mechanical and 
electrical components for the lift span operation.
    Under this temporary deviation, the Marine Parkway Bridge shall 
remain in the closed position from 7 a.m. on November 15, 2016 to 5 
p.m. May 13, 2017.
    Vessels able to pass under 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.

[[Page 54742]]

    The Coast Guard will inform the users of the waterways through our 
Local Notice and Broadcast to Mariners of the change in operating 
schedule for the bridge so that vessel operations can arrange their 
transits to minimize any impact caused by the temporary deviation. The 
Coast Guard notified various companies of the commercial oil and barge 
vessels and they have no objections to 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: August 11, 2016.
