SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The event director, Game On Inc., with 
approval from the North Carolina Department of Transportation, who owns 
and operates the U.S. 70 (Alfred A. Cunningham) Bridge across the Trent 
River, mile 0.0, at New Bern, NC, has requested a temporary deviation 
from the current operating regulations. This temporary deviation is 
necessary to accommodate participation by cyclists during the 30th 
Annual Bike MS: Historic New Bern Ride. The bridge is a double bascule 
bridge and has a vertical clearance in the closed position of 14 feet 
above mean high water.
    The current operating schedule is set out in 33 CFR 117.843(a). 
Under this temporary deviation, the bridge will be maintained in the 
closed-to-navigation position from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. on September 
8th and September 9th 2018. The Trent River is used by a variety of 
vessels including small commercial vessels and recreational vessels. 
The Coast Guard has carefully coordinated the restrictions with 
waterway users in publishing this temporary deviation.
    Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed position may 
do so at anytime. There is no immediate alternate route for vessels 
unable to pass through the bridge in the closed position but the bridge 
will be able to open for emergencies. The Coast Guard will also inform 
users of the waterways through our Local and Broadcast Notice to 
Mariners of the change in operating schedule for the bridge so that 
vessels can arrange their transits to minimize any impacts caused by 
this 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 27, 2018.
