Puget Sound, WA

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of enforcement of regulation.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard will enforce Seattle's Seafair Fleet Week 
Moving Vessels security zones from 10 a.m. on July 31, 2018, through 6 
p.m. on August 6, 2018. These security zones are necessary to help 
ensure the security of the vessels from sabotage or other subversive 
acts during Seafair Fleet Week Parade of Ships. The designated 
participating vessels are: HMCS YELLOWKNIFE (MM 706), HMCS WHITEHORSE 
(MM 705), and USCGC MELLON (WHEC 717). During the enforcement period, 
no person or vessel may enter or remain in the security zones without 
the permission of the Captain of the Port (COTP), Puget Sound or her 
designated representative. The COTP has granted general permission for 
vessels to enter the outer 400 yards of the security zones as long as 
those vessels within the outer 400 yards of the security zones operate 
at the minimum speed necessary to maintain course unless required to 
maintain speed by the navigation rules.

DATES: The regulations in 33 CFR 165.1333 will be enforced from 10 a.m. 
July 31, 2018, through 6 p.m. on August 6, 2018, unless cancelled 
sooner by the Captain of the Port Puget Sound or her designated 
representative.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this 
notice of enforcement, call or email Petty Officer Zachary Spence, 
Sector Puget Sound Waterways Management Division, Coast Guard;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coast Guard will enforce the security 
zones for Seattle's Seafair Fleet Week Moving Vessels in 33 CFR 
165.1333 from 10 a.m. on July 31, 2018, through 6 p.m. on August 6, 
2018.
    In accordance with the general regulations in 33 CFR part 165, 
subpart D, no person or vessel may enter or remain in the security 
zones without the permission of the Captain of the Port, Puget Sound or 
her designated representative. For 2018, the following areas are Sec.  
165.1333 security zones: All navigable waters within 500 yards of HMCS 
YELLOWKNIFE (MM 706), HMCS WHITEHORSE (MM 705), and USCGC MELLON (WHEC 
717) while each such vessel is in the Sector Puget Sound COTP Zone.
    The COTP has granted general permission for vessels to enter the 
outer 400 yards of the security zones as long as those vessels within 
the outer 400 yards of the security zones operate at the minimum speed 
necessary to maintain course unless required to maintain speed by the 
navigation rules. The COTP may be assisted by other federal, state or 
local agencies with the enforcement of the security zones.
    All vessel operators who desire to enter the inner 100 yards of the 
security zones or transit the outer 400 yards at greater than minimum 
speed necessary to maintain course must obtain permission from the COTP 
or her designated representative by contacting the on-scene patrol 
craft on VHF Ch 13 or Ch 16. Requests must include the reason why 
movement within this area is necessary. Vessel operators granted 
permission to enter the security zones will be escorted by the on-scene 
patrol craft until they are outside of the security zones.
    This notice of enforcement is issued under authority of 33 CFR 
165.1333 and 5 U.S.C. 552(a). In addition to this notice of 
enforcement, the Coast Guard will provide the maritime community with 
advanced notification of the security zones via the Local Notice to 
Mariners and marine information broadcasts on the day of the event. In 
the event that there are changes to the participating vessels, due to 
operational requirements, the Coast Guard will provide actual notice 
for any additional designated participating vessels not covered in this 
notice. In addition, members of the public may contact Sector Puget 
Sound COTP at 206-217-6002 for an up-to-date list of designated 
participating vessels. For a pending amendment to Sec.  165.1333(a) 
related to possible changes in participating vessels after the notice 
of enforcement is published, see final rule published June 28, 2018 (83 
FR 30345). That rule will become effective July 30, 2018. If the COTP 
determines that the security zones need not be enforced for the full 
duration stated in this notice of enforcement, a Broadcast Notice to 
Mariners may be used to grant general permission to enter all portions 
of the regulated areas.
