Security Zone; Calcasieu River and Ship Channel, LA

The Coast Guard proposes to disestablish the permanent safety zone at Trunkline LNG in Lake Charles, LA and to replace it with a security zone with new boundaries. The Coast Guard also proposes to establish two additional permanent security zones on the waters of the Calcasieu River for the mooring basins at Cameron LNG in Hackberry, LA and PPG Industries in Lake Charles, LA. The Coast Guard also proposes to disestablish the moving safety zone for Liquified Natural Gas ("LNG") vessels in the Calcasieu ship channel and replace it with a moving security zone of the same dimensions. These security zones are needed to protect vessels, waterfront facilities, the public, and other surrounding areas from destruction, loss, or injury caused by sabotage, subversive acts, accidents, or other actions of a similar nature. Unless exempted under this rule, entry into or movement within these security zones would be prohibited without permission from the Captain of the Port or a designated representative.
