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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard has issued a temporary deviation from the 
operating schedule that governs the Route 280 Bridge across the Passaic 
River, mile 5.8, at Harrison, New Jersey. The deviation is necessary to 
perform steel repairs at the lift span. This deviation allows the 
bridge to remain closed during the construction period.

until 11:59 p.m. on December 14, 2018.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions on this 
temporary deviation, call or email Judy K. Leung-Yee, Bridge Management 
Specialist, First District Bridge Branch, U.S. Coast Guard; telephone

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The owner of the bridge, New Jersey 
Department of Transportation, requested a temporary deviation in order 
to perform steel repairs at the lift span.
    The Route 280 Bridge across the Passaic River, mile 5.8, at 
Harrison, New Jersey is a vertical lift bridge with a vertical 
clearance of 35 feet at mean high water and 40 feet at mean low water 
in the closed position. The existing drawbridge operating regulation is 
listed at 33 CFR 117.739(h).
    This temporary deviation will allow the Route 280 Bridge to remain 
in the closed position from 12:01 a.m. on October 1, 2018, to 11:59 
p.m. on December 14, 2018. The deviation will have minimal effect on 
navigation. The waterway is transited by recreational and commercial 
vessels. Coordination with waterway users has indicated no objection to 
the closure of the draw. Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the 
closed position may do so at any time. The bridge will not 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 waterways 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: August 23, 2018.
