SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The City of San Francisco has requested a 
temporary change to the operation of the 3rd Street Drawbridge, mile 
0.0, over China Basin, at San Francisco, CA. The drawbridge navigation 
span provides a vertical clearance of 3 feet above Mean High Water in 
the closed-to-navigation position. The draw opens on signal if at least 
one hour notice is given, as required by 33 CFR 117.149. Navigation on 
the waterway is recreational.
    The drawspan will be secured in the closed-to-navigation position 
from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. on July 23, 2017, to allow participants to cross 
the bridge, uninterrupted, during the San Francisco Marathon. This 
temporary deviation has been coordinated with the waterway users. No 
objections to the proposed temporary deviation were raised.
    Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed position may 
do so at anytime. The bridge will be able to open for emergencies. 
There is no immediate alternate route for vessels to pass. The Coast 
Guard will also inform the users of the waterway through our Local and 
Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the change in operating schedule for 
the bridge so that vessel operators 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: June 27, 2017.
C.T. Hausner,
District Bridge Chief, Eleventh Coast Guard District.
