STELLWAGEN BANK NATIONAL MARINE SANCTUARY

The severely endangered Right Whale is a regular visitor to
Massachusetts coastal waters. It is a slow moving animal that is prone
to being involved in collisions with vessels. The National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has designated Cape Cod Bay and the
region east of Cape Cod as Critical Habitat for this species, and has
identified the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary as an
additional area of importance to the Right Whale. Vessel operators are
reminded to use caution around Right Whales. Intentional close approach
to Right Whales is prohibited and may result in a violation of federal
or Massachusetts state law. The coordinates of the three federal areas
of special concern are:

Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary - bounded by: 42 45 59N, 70 13
01W; 42 05 35N, 70 02 08W; 42 07 44N, 70 28 15W;

42 32 53N, 70 35 52W; and 42 39 04N, 70 30 11W.

Critical Habitat Area/Cape Cod Bay - bounded by: 42 04 48N, 70 10 00W;
42 12 00N, 70 15 00W; 42 12 00N, 70 30 00W; 41 46 48N, 70 30 00W and on
the south and east by the interior shore line of Cape Cod, MA.

Critical Habitat Area/Great South Channel - bounded by: 41 40 00N, 69 45
00W; 41 00 00N, 69 05 00W; 41 38 00N, 68 13 00W; and

42 10 00N, 68 31 00W. LNM 40/96 (CGD1)

LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS SHIPMENTS IN THE PORT OF BOSTON

The Distrigas Facility in Everett, MA expects to continue receiving
shipments of Liquefied Natural Gas from the National Algerian Petroleum
Corporation. The shipments will be delivered throughout the year, every
two to three weeks during October through March and every six to eight
weeks April through September by Algerian and U.S. Flag LNG tankships.
The Captain of the Port will activate a moving safety zone around each
vessel as it transits Boston Harbor. In accordance with the regulations
in 33 CFR 165.110, all vessels must remain clear of the main ship
channel two miles ahead and one mile astern of the LNG tankers during
the transit. The safety zone will remain in effect around each vessel
while the vessel is moored to the Distrigas facility for the duration of
cargo off loading operations. In accordance with the regulations in 33
CFR 165.110, all vessels must remain clear of the moored LNG tanker at a
distance of at least 50 yards. Marine Safety Broadcasts will be made
every 30 minutes advising the vessel\'s location while each LNG tanker
transits the Port of Boston. Notification of the broadcasts will be made
on VHF-FM Channel 16, and the actual broadcasts will be made on VHF-FM
Channel 22. The Captain of the Port will keep the port community
informed of LNG tanker arrival times and associated harbor closures.
Questions should be directed to the Port Safety and Security Division of
the Marine Safety Office at (617) 223-3000.

MASSACHUSETTS WATER RESOURCES AUTHORITY EFFLUENT TUNNEL CONSTRUCTION

The Massachusetts Water Resources Authority is currently constructing an
effluent outfall tunnel which will connect the Deer Island Waste Water
Treatment Plant to a series of diffuser pipes which extend approx. 10.5
feet above the sea floor. This construction is scheduled to be completed
in January 1998 when the tunnel will finally be flooded. During this
time workers will be in the tunnel, and any damage to the tunnel or
diffuser pipes could result in fatalities. Therefore, mariners are
strongly urged not to anchor, dredge, or drag in a zone 1,000 ft to
either side and each end of the diffuser area between the points
42²23\'19\"N 70²46\'48\"W and 42²23\'04\"N 70²48\'14\"W. For additional
information contact Joseph Griffith at (617) 539-7720.
