Inland Waterways Navigation Regulations: Wrangell Narrows, Alaska

The Coast Guard proposes to allow single barge tows of up to 100 feet in width overall to transit Wrangell Narrows, Alaska. The current size restriction for single barge tows in Wrangell Narrows is 80 feet in width overall. An increase in the maximum barge width in Wrangell Narrows will allow barge operators to carry more cargo on each barge to meet the increasing needs of their Alaskan consumers. Increasing the restriction to 100 feet in width overall will have no adverse effects on navigation and marine safety in Wrangell Narrows.
