Anchorage Regulation; San Francisco Bay, CA

摘要

The Coast Guard proposes to create an anchorage ground adjacent to existing Anchorage 8 that can be used by Coast Guard Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) when the number of vessels requesting to anchor in Anchorages 8 and 9 exceeds the capacity of these two anchorages. This area has been used twice in the past and the Captain of the Port has recognized the potential for needing this anchorage ground in the future. Having the anchorage ground published in the Federal Register will allow the Coast Guard to define its use and location, and establish procedures for notifying the maritime public.
