SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The owner of the bridge, Consolidated Rail 
Corporation, requested a temporary deviation from the normal operating 
schedule to replace bridge timber on the lift span. The Lehigh Valley 
Bridge across the Newark Bay, mile 4.3, at Newark, New Jersey is a lift 
bridge with a vertical clearance in the closed position of 35 feet at 
mean high water and 39 feet at mean low water. The existing bridge 
operating regulations are listed at Sec. Sec.  117.5 and 117.735.
    Under this temporary deviation, the Lehigh Valley Bridge shall 
remain in the closed position from 6 a.m. on October 14, 2018 to 6 p.m. 
on October 15, 2018; from 6 a.m. on October 21 to 6 p.m. on October 22, 
2018; and from 6 a.m. on October 28, 2018 to 6 p.m. on October 29, 
2018. Should inclement weather occur, the following rain dates may be 
used: (a) From 6 a.m. on November 4, 2018 to 6 p.m. on November 5, 
2018; or (b) from 6 a.m. on November 11, 2018 to 6 p.m. on November 12, 
2018.
    The waterway is transited by recreational and commercial vessels. 
Coordination with known waterway users has indicated no objection to 
the closure. Vessels able to pass through the bridge in the closed 
position may do so at anytime. The bridge will not be able to open for 
emergencies and there is no immediate alternate route for vessels to 
pass.
    The Coast Guard will 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: September 21, 2018.
