Safety Zone; South Street Seaport, New Years Eve Fireworks, East River, NY

Samenvatting

The Coast Guard proposed to establish a temporary safety zone for a fireworks program located in the East River, New York. If adopted, this event will take place from 11:30 p.m. on December 31, 1994, to 12:45 a.m. on January 1, 1995. This proposed regulation would close all waters of the East River south of the Brooklyn Bridge and north of a line drawn from Pier 9, Manhattan to Pier 3, Brooklyn. This safety zone would preclude all vessels from transiting this portion of the East River and is needed to protect the boating public from the hazards associated with fireworks exploding in the area.
