Regulated Navigation Area; San Francisco Bay, San Pablo Bay, Carquinez Strait, Suisun Bay, Sacramento River, San Joaquin River, and Connecting Waters, CA

Краткое содержание

The Coast Guard is designating San Francisco Bay, San Pablo Bay, Carquinez Strait, Suisun Bay, Sacramento River, San Joaquin River, and the connecting waters as a Regulated Navigation Area for the purpose of prohibiting vessels carrying Liquefied Hazardous Gas (LHG) from anchoring in the San Francisco Bay area and requiring them to proceed directly to their intended offload facility. By establishing these requirements, this rule limits the amount of time vessels carrying LHG spend in the heavily populated San Francisco Bay area in order to reduce the chances that vessels carrying LHG could be subject to a terrorist attack or involved in an accident within these waters.
