Coast Guard Establishes Temporary Safety Zone for Salvage Operations in Puerto Rico

The US Coast Guard has set up a 100-yard radius safety zone around a salvage vessel and machinery in the Turning Basin, Bahía de Ponce, Ponce, Puerto Rico, to protect personnel, vessels, and marine environments from potential hazards during salvage operations, and to require authorization from the Captain of the Port San Juan for vessel entry into the zone.
