Résumé

The Coast Guard is proposing to establish a permanent security zone in the vicinity of Seaport Manatee facilities and ship berths. This action is necessary to enhance safety and protect vessels, facilities, and infrastructure from potential threats. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking. This proposed rulemaking would allow for controlled access of authorized vessels and facility personnel within the security zone only.
