Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Coquille River, Coos Bay, OR

The Coast Guard proposes to change the operating schedule that governs the U.S. 101 highway drawbridge also known as Bullard's Drawbridge, near Coos Bay, Oregon. The proposed change would allow the drawbridge to permanently remain in the closed position, no longer opening for vessel traffic. While there is vessel traffic on this waterway, no one has requested a drawbridge opening since 1998. Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) owns the bridge and requested to update the operating schedule accordingly.
