RIGHT WHALES WARNING

From December to March the coastal waters between Altamaha Sound,
Georgia, and Sebastian Inlet, Florida, are the only calving grounds for
the endangered North Atlantic Right Whale. Right Whales are the rarest
whales in the world and are protected under law from disturbance or
injury by the Endangered Species Act of 1973 and the Marine Mammal
Protection Act of 1972. Right Whales, especially females and their
calves, frequently lie at the surface. This behavior makes them
vulnerable to collisions with ships, which are a significant source of
mortality.

Vessels operating within 15 miles of shore between 31²15\'N and 30²15\'N
and within five miles of shore from 30²15\'N and 28²N should take
precautions to avoid collisions with Right Whales. Mariners should
maintain a distance of 500 meters from any whales sighted. If a Right
Whale is sighted, record the position, note direction of the whale\'s
travel and record the time. Whale sightings should be reported to Coast
Guard Group Mayport via VHF-FM radio or by calling the Georgia
Department of Natural Resources at 1-800-272-8363.

HURRICANE SEASON

The hurricane season extends from June through November. Hurricanes can
cause excessive damage to vessels and loss of life. To minimize these
dangers, the following precautions should be taken by all mariners
before getting underway during the hurricane season:

\(a\) Instruction of crew and passengers in location of emergency
equipment and emergency procedures;

\(b\) Presailing check of vessel, machinery, and equipment for
seaworthiness;

\(c\) Installation of strong ground tackle;

\(d\) Review of storm center evasion procedures;

\(e\) Knowledge of nearest hurricane shelter or port; and

\(f\) Constant radio watch on channel 16 VHF-FM and frequent monitoring
of weather broadcasts.

HURRICANE INFORMATION

The civilian hurricane warning service for the North Atlantic is
provided by the National Hurricane Center, Miami, Florida. The center
collates ship, aircraft, radar, and satellite data to produce and issue
tropical cyclone warnings and forecasts for the North Atlantic Ocean,
including the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. A Tropical Cyclone
Advisory message is issued every six hours, with intermediate bulletins
provided as needed.

For tropical storms and hurricanes threatening to cross the coast of the
U.S., coastal warnings are issued to the public so that precautionary
actions, including evacuation, can be initiated to minimize damage and
loss of life. Two levels of warnings are employed:

\(a\) HURRICANE WATCH - a preliminary alert that a hurricane MAY
threaten a specified portion of the coast. It is issued 36 hours before
landfall may occur; and

\(b\) HURRICANE WARNING - which indicated that hurricane conditions are
EXPECTED along a specified portion of the coast. It is issued 24 hours
before landfall. To provide additional information for maritime
interests, a Marine Advisory is also issued which provides storm
position forecasts for up to 72 hours in advance of a storm, and
probabilities of hurricane strikes for coastal locations and offshore
coordinates.

Mariners are reminded that aids to navigation, particularly lighted and
unlighted buoys, may be moved from charted position, damaged, destroyed,
extinguished or otherwise deemed discrepant as a result of hurricanes
and storms. Mariners should not rely solely upon the position or
operation of an aid to navigation, but should also employ such other
methods of determining position as may be available.

Mariners are further reminded that during the hurricane season
drawbridges along the coast may deviate from normal operating
procedures. Drawbridges are authorized to remain closed upon approach of
gale force winds of 34 knots or greater. Others may be authorized to
extend closed periods prior to gale force winds to facilitate evacuation
of land traffic or close operations up to 8 hours before expected
arrival of gale force winds. Due to the uncertainty of hurricane
movements and bridge closures, mariners are urged to seek passage
through drawbridges well in advance of the arrival of gale force winds.

OMEGA STATUS

A polar cap disturbance commenced at 130230Z September 1996. Use caution
when using polar path OMEGA signals as errors may exist on all
navigational frequencies. 10.2 kHz signals may be in error by one-third
lane or more.

Ref: LNM 39-96 and BNM 391-96-OMEGA

DGPS USER SAFETY ADVISORY

The Coast Guard Navigation Information Service (NIS) recently received
reports of DGPS receivers apparently ignoring the broadcast alarm which
should signal the immediate discontinuation of a particular satellite
correction. In accordance with international and industry standards
\[RTCM SC104\], the USCG DGPS broadcast sets a satellite correction to
the defined \"DO-NOT-USE\" value of 10485.76 meters if broadcast
integrity checks indicate there is a problem with that satellite\'s
correction. Reports indicate some user equipment does not properly
recognize this \"DO-NOT-USE\" correction flag and instead erroneously
processes it as a correction. This can result in position errors as
large as 15,000 meters while the receiver is in DGPS mode. Users should
contact the manufacturer of their equipment immediately to determine if
they require a receiver upgrade.

For the current status of DGPS broadcast sites or additional information
contact the NIS watchstander at (703) 313-5900. The NIS computer
bulletin board may be accessed at (703) 313-5910 (300-14400 BPS),
comminication parameters are 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity.

SOUTH CAROLINA-CHARLESTON HARBOR INCLUDING COOPER RIVER AND WANDO RIVER:
Waterways Analysis and Management Systems (WAMS) Study.

The Coast Guard is conducting a Waterways Analysis and Management (WAMS)
study of the Charleston Harbor area, including Charleston entrance and
the Cooper and Wando Rivers. The study focuses on the area\'s aids to
navigation system, waterborne commerce, marine casualty information,
port/harbor resources, Emergency response plans, routine and emergency
communication capabilities and future development projects. Any
interested company or individual wishing to provide comments or
participate in a user survey should contact:

Commanding Officer, USCGC MADRONA (WLB 302), 196 Tradd Street,
Charleston, South Carolina 29401, ATTN: WAMS Officer, (803) 724-7656.

FLORIDA-DRAWBRIDGES: VHF-FM Channel Change.

Drawbridges in Florida have been encouraged by the Federal Communication
Commission to use VHF-FM channel 9 for communications with vessels
instead of VHF-FM channel 13. This is an attempt to reduce the
congestion of VHF-FM channel 13 which is intended for vessel to vessel
passing information. When using VHF-FM channel 9, all vessel operators
and bridgetenders are encouraged to switch to low power for hailing or
discussing bridge opening information; this will help minimize confusion
for boaters especially on waterways with a large number of drawbridges
located in close proximity.

C. BRIDGE INFORMATION

FLORIDA-ST. JOHNS RIVER: Special Bridge Notice.

The Coast Guard has authorized a request from the Traylor Brothers,
Incorporated at (904) 260-2926 to allow a temporary reduction in the
vertical clearance at the Buckman Bridge (I-295) across the St. Johns
River, mile 34.5, Duval County, Florida. At the main navigational
channel spans, this fixed bridge provides a 65-foot vertical clearance
above mean high water.

The authorization allows a reduction of five feet for the setting of
deckforms which will reduce the vertical clearance to 60-foot above mean
high water at the main navigation channel for approximately 30 days
beginning October 01, 1996.

During daytime working hours throughout the duration of the bridge
project vessels may contact the M.V. Potomac on VHF-FM channels 13 or 16

GEORGIA-SAVANNAH RIVER-BACK RIVER: Waterway Restriction.

Public queries regarding the navigability of the Back River through the
Savannah Harbor Tide Gate structure have been received by the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers, Savannah District. This is to inform all interested
parties that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers prohibits the passage of
vessels through the structure in the interest of safety. In addition to
the treacherous currents and eddies generated by tidal action around the
gates, a concrete sill between each pier poses a significant hazard to
watercraft. Any questions or comments can be addressed to Alan Garett,
Navigation Project Manager, telephone (912) 652-5058.
