## SUPPLEMENTAL CHART INFORMATION TEMPORARY DRILL RIGS ESTABLISHED/REMOVED

The drill rigs and vessels that have been temporarily established, as
indicated in the below tabulation, will display lights and sound
signals, according to

size or class, during periods of darkness and reduced visibility.
Numerous, large anchor buoys which may be lighted by displaying a white
4 second

characteristic light and unlighted buoy may be established up to 2000 or
more yards from the vessel or rig site. Mariners should avoid passing
close

aboard the rigs or vessels. Offshore structures that have been
established will display lights and a fog signal sounding 1 blast (2
sec. blast) every 20

seconds. Mooring buoys (white with blue band) may be located within 500
yards of the structure for mooring attendant vessels and/or barges.
Mariners

should avoid passing close aboard structures. (Rig Abbreviations:
Jack-up-JU, Submersible-SU, Semi-Submersible-SS, Drillship-DS,
Barge-BR).

## GENERAL INFORMATION 

## DRILL RIGS/VESSELS TEMPORARILY ESTABLISHED/OFFSHORE STRUCTURES ESTABLISHED

The drill rigs and vessels that have been temporarily established as
indicated in the Supplemental Chart Correction Section (5) will display
lights and

sound signals according to size or class during periods of darkness and
reduced visibility. Numerous large anchor buoys which may be lighted
displaying

white 4 second characteristic lights and unlighted buoys may be
established up to 2000 or more yards from the vessel or rig site.
Mariners should avoid

passing close aboard the rigs or vessels. Offshore structures that have
been established will display lights and a fog signal sounding 1 blast
(2 second

blast) every 20 seconds. Mooring buoys (white with blue band) may be
located within 500 yards of the structure for mooring attendant vessels
and/or

barges. Mariners should avoid passing close aboard these structures.

### LA - LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN - Causeway Fender Work - Channel Closure - Lights Extinguished

Fender replacement operations continue at the south channel opening
(highway mile 8) in approximate position 30-08-15N, 90-08-15W, of the
Lake

Pontchartrain Causeway. The piles for the new fender system have been
driven. However, the project is not expected to be completed until the
end of

February, 1997. Four, 20-foot diameter, steel, sheet-pile dolphins have
been constructed at the ends of the fenders. Due to construction
operations, the

south channel is completely closed to navigation, 24 hours per day, 7
days per week, until approximately the end of February, 1997. Mariners
may transit

the north channel draw span opening as an alternate route.

The fender systems of the south hump (4-mile hump in approximate
position 30-04-36N, 90-08-36W), the center hump (12-mile hump in
approximate

position 30-11-33N, 90-07-24W) and the north hump (20-mile hump in
approximate position 30-18-30N, 90-06-13W) have been permanently

removed. The navigation lights at the south, and north Humps previously
reported temporarily discontinued, have been relighted. The navigation
lights

on the center hump are extinguished.

\*LAKE - PONTCHARTRAIN - Solicitation of Views on Proposed Bridge
Closure for Maintenance

All interested parties are notified that Krebs, LaSalle, LeMieux
Consultants, Inc., on behalf of the New Orleans Expressway Commission
(GNOEC), has

submitted to the Commander, Eighth Coast Guard District, a request for a
temporary rule governing the operation of the north bascule spans of the

Greater New Orleans Expressway Commission Causeway drawbridge across
Lake Pontchartrain, between Metairie and Mandeville, Louisiana. This

temporary change to the operating regulation will require that on
alternating weekends only (every other Saturday and Sunday) beginning on
or about May

1, 1997 and continuing for approximately 150 days, the draw need not
open for the passage of vessels. Presently, the draw is required to open
on signal

if at least three hours notice is given. This closure is necessary to
clean and paint the structure. Vertical clearance of the bridge in the
closed position is

42 feet above mean high water and 45 feet above mean low water.

For protection of the environment, this cleaning and painting operation
requires a fully enclosed system with negative air pressure. The special
equipment

used for this procedure has to be removed each time the draw span is
opened. Since this process is time consuming and costly, the equipment
should

remain in place for full two-day periods, allowing the contractor to
maximize work time. Painting operations in the counterweight area will
require the

bridge to be placed in the open to navigation position. During the time
in which the span of one bridge is in the open position to be painted,
the span of

the other bridge will need to be closed to detour vehicular traffic.
High weekday traffic volumes and the requirement to paint during
daylight will require

that the work be done on weekends. The applicant states that records
obtained from the GNOEC indicate that most of the marine traffic
requiring a bridge

opening is recreational sailboat traffic which normally transits the
bridge on weekends. Therefore, painting operations will only be
conducted every other

weekend. The bridge will operate normally on the alternating weekends,
when work is not being conducted, and on holiday weekends, including the

weekends of Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day.

Interested parties are requested to comment on this proposal, providing
sufficient details to establish a clear understanding of reasons for
support or

opposition. Comments should be submitted in writing to the Eighth Coast
Guard District, Bridge Administration Branch, at the address given on
the cover

of this notice through February 21, 1997.
