Safety and Security Zones; New York Marine Inspection Zone and Captain of the Port Zone

Resumen

As a result of the several apparent terrorist attacks September 11, 2001 on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, the State Department, and other governmental installations, the Coast Guard is establishing temporary emergency safety and security zones covering the New York Marine Inspection Zone and Captain of the Port Zone. The safety and security zones are needed to safeguard the public, vessels, and vessel crews from further consequences of the aforementioned attacks, and from potential future sabotage or other subversive acts, accidents, or other causes of a similar nature. Entry into or movement within these zones by any vessel of any description whatsoever, except emergency response vessels, without the express authority of the Captain of the Port, New York, or his authorized patrol representative is strictly prohibited.
