SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The C.E.C. Inc., acting on behalf of 
Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development, has requested a 
temporary deviation from the operating schedule of the Harvey Canal 
Fourth Street Bascule Bridge across GIWW, mile 0.24 WHL (Harvey Canal), 
at Harvey, Louisiana. This deviation was requested to replace 
electrical and hydraulic lines including trunnion shafts along with 
span and tail locks initial installation to the drawbridge. This bridge 
is governed by 33 CFR 117.5.
    This deviation allows the bascule bridge to remain in the closed-
to-navigation position for 77 consecutive days from 6:30 a.m. on 
September 6, 2017 through 7 p.m. on Tuesday, November 21, 2017.
    This bridge has a vertical clearance of 7 feet above mean high 
water in the closed-to-navigation position.
    Navigation at the site of the bridge consists mainly of tugs with 
barges and some recreational pleasure craft. For the duration of the 
rehabilitation the bridge will not be able to open for emergencies and 
GIWW Algiers Alternate Route can be used as an alternate route to avoid 
unnecessary delays. The Coast Guard will 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 
regulation is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

    Dated: September 8, 2017.

Bridge Administrator, Eighth Coast Guard District.
