Artificial Island Anchorage No. 2 Partial Closure, Delaware River; Salem, NJ

The Coast Guard will be establishing a temporary safety zone around the southern portion of Anchorage 2 (Artificial Island Anchorage) below position 39[deg]29'20" N-075[deg]33'30" W to position 39[deg]29'12.5" N-075[deg]33'0" W due to dredging operations. The hopper dredge STUYVESANT will be working in the area, and 4,000 feet of submerged pipe line will cross the closed portion of the anchorage. This regulation is necessary to provide for the safety of life on the navigable waters of the Artificial Island Anchorage. This closure is intended to restrict vessel anchoring to protect mariners from the hazards associated with an ongoing dredging operation.
