NY-LONG ISLAND-FIRE ISLAND-SMITH POINT
Mariners are advised of an update to the fiber optic telecom cable (Grace Hopper) installed off Smith Point, NY in May 2022. [ NOAA RNC Charts:#12300, #13003, #13006 and ENC Chart: US3NY01M]. The cable route in NY State Waters runs from shore to a point 3 nautical miles fromshore 40-43.7732N, 072-51.6484W to 40-42.0286N, 072-47.2872W. During the installation the cable was buried by mechanical trencher below
the seabed. Subsequent post-installation monitoring in NY State waters indicates that, while the cable remains buried, its burial depth appears
reduced in some locations, possibly due to natural sediment movement.
This fiber optic telecom cable measures 2 inches in diameter and carries high voltage. If a vessel’s anchor or fishing gear is suspected to haveengaged the Grace Hopper subsea cable, do not attempt to bring it to the surface. Please contact the SubCom Emergency Hotline at +1 (732)578-7474 (ask for snag hotline). For additional information please contact (marineliaison@subcom.com).
LNM: 19/24
Right Whale Protections
Right whales are active in coastal and offshore waters. It is illegal to approach or stay within 500 yards of right whales. Mandatory and voluntary
speed restrictions of 10 knots apply to vessels 65 feet or longer in specific areas of the U.S. East Coast, but all vessels are urged to slow in theseareas. Refer to Section VII of this LNM for active Slow Zones and Dynamic Management Areas. Or visit NOAA’s website to learn more and sign up
for notifications about seasonal management areas and right whale slow zones. Or follow on X @NOAAFish_GARFO. See the latest sightings onwhalemap.org. Please report sightings of dead, injured, or entangled whales to 877-942-5343 or to the U.S. Coast Guard on channel 16.

New Merchant Mariner Credential
The U.S. Coast Guard announced a new merchant mariner credential (MMC) set to launch on March 1, 2024. This milestone marks the firstcomprehensive revision of the mariner credential in nearly a decade and is strategically designed to enhance both quality of service and security
within the Marine Transportation System (MTS). U.S. Coast Guard Marine Safety Information Bulletin (MSIB) 01-24, New Merchant Mariner
Credential Passport Booklet Replacement, has been posted on the DCO’s MSIB Site and announced at the National Maritime Center (CG-NMC)
Home Page (uscg.mil). Please visit these resources for more information on the credential.
LNM: 09/24
Publication of NVIC 03-23 Guidance on Navigational Safety In and Around Offshore Renewable Energy Installations (OREI).
The Coast Guard has published Navigation and Vessel Inspection Circular (NVIC) 03-23: Guidance on Navigational Safety In and Around Offshore
Renewable Energy Installations (OREI) to highlight considerations when planning and undertaking voyages in the vicinity of offshore renewableenergy installations (OREI) in U.S. waters. The prudent mariner should review and utilize this NVIC to make an informed risk assessment prior tonavigating within or in the vicinity of an OREI. Important Maritime Safety Information (MSI) relating to OREIs is distributed by Local or Broadcast
Notices to Mariners (LNM or BNM) promulgated by Coast Guard Districts. Marine Safety Information Bulletins (MSIB) released by the local Captainof the Port (COTP) may be issued to provide supplemental information. Interested parties should contact the Office of Navigation Systems at
CGNAV@uscg.mil with any questions or feedback.
LNM: 47/23
CAUTION TO BE USED IN RELIANCE UPON AIDS TO NAVIGATION
The aids to navigation depicted on charts comprise a system of fixed and floating aids with varying degrees of reliability. Therefore, prudent
mariners will not rely solely on any single aid to navigation, particularly a floating aid. With respect to buoys, the buoy symbol is used to indicate
the approximate position of the buoy body and the sinker, which secures the buoy to the seabed. The approximate position is used because ofpractical limitations in positioning and maintaining buoys and their sinkers in precise geographical locations. These limitations include, but are notlimited to, inherent imprecision’s in position fixing methods, prevailing atmospheric and sea conditions, the slope of and the material making up
the seabed, the fact that buoys are moored to sinkers by varying lengths of chain, and the fact that buoy body and/or sinker positions are notunder continuous surveillance but are normally checked only during periodic maintenance visits which often occur more than a year apart. The
position of the buoy body can be expected to shift inside and outside the charting symbol due to the forces of nature. The mariner is also
cautioned that buoys are liable to be carried away, shifted, capsized, sunk, etc. Lighted buoys may be extinguished or sound signals may not
function as the result of ice, running ice or other natural causes, collisions, or other accidents. For the foregoing reasons, a prudent mariner must
not rely completely upon the position or operation of floating aids to navigation, but will also utilize bearings from fixed objects and aids tonavigation on shore. Further, a vessel attempting to pass close aboard always risks collision with a yawing buoy or with the obstruction the buoymarks.
LNM: 01/24
INTERFERENCE WITH AIDS TO NAVIGATION
14 USC 543. It shall be unlawful for any person, or public body, or instrumentality, excluding the armed forces, to remove, change the location of,
obstruct, willfully damage, make fast to, or interfere with any aid to navigation established, installed, operated, or maintained by the Coast Guard
pursuant to section 541 of this title, or with any aid to navigation lawfully maintained under authority granted by the Coast Guard pursuant tosection 542 of this title, or to anchor any vessel in any of the navigable waters of the United States so as to obstruct or interfere with range lights
maintained therein. Whoever violates the provisions of this section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be fined not more than $1,500 foreach offense. Each day during which such violation shall continue shall be considered as a new offense.
LNM: 01/24
U.S. COAST GUARD AUXILIARY – PUBLIC EDUCATION CLASSES – FIND BY ZIPCODE
The National Public Education Calendar Database provides a single, unified national database that holds and displays all public education courses
taught by our various flotillas nationwide. In addition, a Zip Code search permits members of the general public to enter a Zip Code of interest,and find all public education courses being taught within a selected distance from that Zip Code.

CANCELLATION OF NOAA PAPER AND RASTER NAUTICAL CHARTSThe National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is undertaking a multi-year program to end production and maintenance of its suiteof over 1,000 traditional paper nautical charts and all associated raster chart products and services, including: Print-on-Demand (POD) paper
nautical charts, Full-size chart PDF files, BookletChart™ PDF files, NOAA raster navigational charts (NOAA RNC®), the NOAA RNC tile service, andthe online RNC viewer.
Six months notice of the intent to cancel a specific chart is provided in a “Last Edition” notice. The final cancellation of a chart is made in a
“Canceled” notice. Both types of notices will appear in LNM Section IV, “Chart Correction.” A comprehensive list of all canceled NOAA charts isavailable at: http://www.charts.noaa.gov/MCD/Dole.shtml.
Traditional paper nautical chart production is ending to enable the creation and maintenance of larger scale, more up-to-date, higher quality
coverage of NOAA’s electronic navigational chart (NOAA ENC®) product. This will significantly enhance the amount of charted detail available tomariners. More information about NOAA’s program to sunset traditional paper charts is on the NOAA Coast Survey website at:https://nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/charts/farewell-to-traditional-nautical-charts.html An online NOAA Custom Chart application at: https://devgis.charttools.noaa.gov/pod is available to create chart images from ENC data, which may then be printed. Notices to Mariners will not be
issued for NOAA Custom Charts.

NOTICE TO ALL PRIVATE BOATS AT SEA
United States laws and regulations require that ALL private boats arriving from a foreign port or place MUST report to the Bureau of Customs andBorder Protection IMMEDIATELY upon their arrival into the United States. Every person entering the United States must be seen in person for
immigration purposes by a Customs and Border Protection officer, except those participating in the I-68 -Canadian Border Boat Landing Program. However, holders of form I-68 are still required to report their arrival into the United States to the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection.
Masters and passengers must provide proof of citizenship or legal immigration status, and be in possession of a valid passport and visa, if
required. Citizens of countries that are participants in the Visa Waiver Program are not eligible to seek admission to the United States under that
program via private vessel. Once your boat is anchored or tied, you are considered to have entered the United States. No one may leave thevessel until Customs and Border Protection grants permission. The only exception to this requirement is to report arrival. In order to fulfill therequirement to immediately report a private boat arrival, the master of the vessel must contact the nearest Customs and Border Protection
Office, or if the arrival occurs after business hours, the nearest 24 hour port of entry. Upon reporting, you may be required to proceed to astaffed port for inspection by Customs and Border Protection. Failure to comply with these requirements could result in serious criminal and civil
penalties, including seizure of the boat. International mariners are urged to report any suspicious or illegal activity to the Bureau of Customs andBorder Protection at 1-800-BE-ALERT.
LNM: 01/24
US NOTICE TO MARINERS (NTM)

OFFSHORE WIND ENERGY/ONGOING WORK
Updated 7/16/2024
New information highlighted in Yellow.
This guidance is for Private Aids to Navigation (AtoN) applicants requesting Coast Guard approval to provide
navigational markings on offshore wind energy area structures in First District-area waters. The following structure label
identification, lighting, sound, and Automatic Identification System (AIS) signals are strongly recommended, to be
included in the USCG/BOEM/BSEE-accepted Marking Labeling and Signaling Plan (ML&SP). Applicants should plan to
apply for one Private Aid Permit per structure (to include all labels, light(s), sound and AIS signals per the accepted
ML&SP). Private AtoN Permit applications should be submitted using the “as designed” position, between 60 and 30 days
prior to the start of construction, when they will be processed. Additional specific recommendations, to allow sufficient
time for vessel operators to detect and make any necessary course or speed alterations, include:
Tower/Electrical Service Platform (ESP) Identification:• The foundation base of all towers should be painted yellow, RAL 1023, all around from the level of Mean Higher High
Water (MHHW) to 50 ft above MHHW.
• Uniquely lettered and numbered in an organized pattern as near to rows and columns as possible to enable quick
recognition and reference by mariners and agencies for search and rescue, law enforcement, and other purposes.
• (Tower) Letters and numbers, visible at night, labelled uniformly to at least 2.5 m (8.2 ft) and as close to 3 m (9.8 ft) inheight as possible, rendered through use of retro-reflective or high contrast black, comparable to MilSpec #17038 or RAL
9005, to maximize visual range for nearby mariners.
• (ESP) Letters and numbers labelled to 1 meter high to maximize visual range for nearby mariners.
• The bottom of the 2.5m to 3m alphanumeric characters should be located at least 30 ft above MHHW and should be
visible above any service platforms throughout a 360-degree arc from the water’s surface. If feasible, each uniquealphanumeric designation should be duplicated below any servicing platform.
• It is strongly recommended to use retro-reflective paint and lettering/numbering materials to enhance visibility at night,
and that an all-around band, retro-reflective material (white, yellow, or silver), visible through a 360-degree arc, at least 2
feet high, be applied to structures no less than 30 ft above MHHW.
Lighting:• Located on all structures, preferably on the servicing platform, visible throughout a 360-degree arc from the water’ssurface.
• Corner Towers/Significant Peripheral Structures (SPSs): Quick flashing yellow (QY), visible at a 5 nautical mile range.
• Intermediate Perimeter Structures (IPS) are those located along a wind energy facility’s outside boundary between SPSs:
2.5 sec flashing yellow (Fl Y 2.5s), visible at a 3 nautical mile range.
• Interior Towers, those inside the line of IPS and SPS towers: 6 second or 10 second flashing yellow (Fl Y 6/Fl Y 10),visible at a 2 nautical mile range.
• All lights serving the same function (SPS, IPS, inner boundary, etc.) should be synchronized within the field ofstructures.

Note: All base, tower and construction components preceding the final structure completion must be marked with Quick
Flashing Yellow (QY) obstruction lights visible throughout 360 degrees at a 5 nautical mile range. These interim lights
do not require additional PATON applications and will be accounted for by the First District Waterways staff
through BOEM/USCG/BSEE acceptance of the Marking, Labeling and Signaling Plan. Coast Guard notification isrequired when a structure is first lighted, with a QY after it breaks the water’s surface, and again when the final ML&SP
is operational.
Sound Signals:• All SPS should be fitted with a Mariner Radio Activated Sound Signal (MRASS) which when activated--by multiple(5x) keying on VHF channel 83A within 10 seconds--should sound every 30 seconds (4s Blast, 26s off) and audible for atleast 2 NM, for 45 minutes from its last VHF activation.
Automated Information System (AIS) Transponder Signals:• At a minimum, FCC-certified AIS Aids to Navigation signals should mark all SPS or other significant locations within
the wind energy facility. The structures may be marked with either physical or synthetic AIS message 21 ascircumstances warrant.
• AIS broadcasts should be made at sufficient antenna height and power to provide a relatively uniform coveragestrongly recommended to extend at least 8 nautical miles beyond the periphery of the wind farm.
Note: AIS stations must be FCC type-certified and granted appropriate FCC licensing prior to broadcasting. See
our USCG AIS Frequently Asked Questions #21 for more information and additional instructions on submitting an
AIS PATON application.

COMMERCIAL VESSELS WORKING IN SUPPORT OF OFFSHORE WIND
The purpose of this Bulletin is to provide an update to the commercial vessel industry with respect to ensuring compliancewith the current regulations for vessels operating in support of offshore wind development within The First Coast Guard
District. Wind development companies are coordinating with local vessels to support survey, scout, guard, transport crew,
construction, and maintenance operations. These vessels are now and will be changing commercial service to support
offshore wind operations. These vessels may be conducting many services and operating under numerous inspection
subchapters. Vessel operators will also need to ensure they are meeting applicable safety regulations that apply to vessels
working in support of offshore wind.
Applicability of statutes and regulations are based on many factors, including vessel size, operations, operating area,
individuals carried, cargo carried, etc. Vessels identified in Title 46 U.S. Code §3301 are required to have a Certificate ofInspection (COI). Vessels operating commercially but not subject to inspection are termed uninspected commercial
vessels. This Marine Safety Informational Bulletin is published to remind the maritime community of some importantthresholds that trigger certain regulations.
If you…
Regularly carry something or someone in support ofoffshore energy
Engage in scout or guard service
Engage in oceanographic or limnological research
Carry freight
Carry one or more passengers for hire
Catch fish commerciallyTow, push, haul alongside commercially

Then you might be a…

Acoustic Monitoring of Highly Migratory Fish Species in RI/MA Wind Energy Areas

The New England Aquarium and INSPIRE Environmental are conducting research on the movements of highly
migratory fish species (sharks, tunas, and marlins) in the southern New England wind energy area. Part of thisresearch requires acoustic receivers to be placed on the sea floor in the locations shown as colored circles in the
below map. To reduce the risk of entangling protected species, receivers have no surface buoys and are connected
to a mooring system weighing approximately 75 pounds that extends 2 to 3 meters (6 to 9 feet) off the sea floor,
as shown in the below photo. To reduce risk of interaction with mobile fishing gear, receivers have been placednear obstructions to the extent possible. All receivers will be deployed in these locations until December 15, 2023.

DMF Extends Small Vessel Speed Restriction for Cape Cod Bay to Protect Right Whales
As a result of the ongoing presence of right whales, the Division of Marine Fisheries is extending thesmall vessel speed restriction in Cape Cod Bay through May 15, 2024. Small vessels (less than 65’) are
required to travel at speeds no greater than 10 knots in this area. Right whales are highly susceptible toinjury and death due to vessel collision. A complementary federal speed restriction in the same area
applies to vessels 65’ and greater until May 15.

During aerial surveillance on April 26, the Center for Coastal Studies documented 52 right whales inCape Cod Bay, including three mother/calf pairs, all of which were skim feeding at the surface or justbelow the surface. This feeding behavior makes them highly susceptible to vessel collision. All mariners
are advised to follow the speed limit and use extreme caution when transiting the area. Additionally, it isunlawful, under state and federal law, to approach a right whale within 500 yards. If you observe a rightwhale entangled in fishing gear while on the water, report it immediately to the Center for Coastal Studies(800-900-3622), the state Office of Environmental Law Enforcement (800-632-8075) or the federal
Entanglement Hot Line: (866- 755-6622).

Federal Pilotage Requirements
Recently, there have been situations wherein vessels have entered or departed waters where a federal pilot is required
but have done so without one on board. The purpose of this bulletin is to provide clarity and a greater understandingof the pilotage requirements outlined in 46 CFR 15.812 as it pertains to vessels operating in the designated waters of
Sector Southeastern New England. The waters of Sector Southeastern New England accommodate a variety ofvessels with wide ranging dimensions and purposes. Depending on the dimensions of a given vessel, particularly
Gross Registered Tons, a federal pilot may be required to navigate the vessel into or out of port.
When is a federal or state pilot required?
Coastwise, seagoing vessels are subject to federal pilotage requirements and are to be under the direction and control
of a federal pilot if the vessel is not sailing on register, is underway, not on the high seas, propelled by machinery,and subject to inspection under chapter 37 of title 46 (46 U.S.C. 8502). In general, pilotage is compulsory for all
domestic vessels measuring greater than 1,600 Gross Registered Tons when entering and departing port as specified
by 46 CFR 15.812(a). Additionally, the states regulate pilotage on foreign trade vessels (foreign vessels and U.S.
vessels operating on register) in the bays, rivers, harbors, and ports of the United States (46 U.S.C. 8501). Any U.S.
documented vessel with only a registry endorsement on its Certificate of Documentation (COD) would be subject tostate pilotage laws. All foreign vessels are subject to state pilotage laws.

46 CFR 15.812(b) outlines who is permitted to serve in the capacity as a federal pilot. An individual holding a valid
first-class pilot’s license or Merchant Mariner Credential officer endorsement as first-class pilot, operating within the
restrictions of that credential, may serve as a pilot. A table is provided below to summarize these conditions.

SAFETY AND HEALTH OF THE FLEETThe Captain of the Port (COTP), as well as Coast Guard units and personnel of Sector Southeastern New
England, remain committed to the physical and mental health of all mariners homeported, passing through, andoperating in this area. As professional seafarers in New England’s largest and most profitable fleet, commercial
fishermen are vital contributors to the nation’s supply chain, and the arduous nature of this profession posessignificant health risks that the Coast Guard is dedicated to helping reduce.

COMMON HEALTH RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INDUSTRYWith respect to the commercial fishing industry, physical injury, overdose, depression, and drowning haveshown to be common risks among its crews. None of these risks are exclusive to commercial fishing, but theinherently dangerous work subjects mariners to injury, which often results in prescription medications that are
difficult to manage; hence, addiction and potential overdose affect many of the crews.
Notwithstanding, depression remains a HUMAN problem that effects people from all walks of life, yet days at
sea that fishermen endure make seeking help difficult. When such issues remain unmanaged, one’s ability tofocus may decline, which can lead to accidents and possible loss of life. The Coast Guard has teamed withseveral local organizations to directly address this health threat and serve a role in improving fishermen’s wellbeing.

HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS AT SEAFirst and foremost, rescuing and/or transporting the individual to appropriate care remains the Coast Guard’s
primary objective. Notifying the Coast Guard of a hazardous condition at sea, which includes injury or illness ofa person aboard the vessel, satisfies federal requirements of 33 CFR 160.216. The rescue, recovery, or transportof an individual who may have suffered from a substance-related episode does not yield suspicion or implicate
uninvolved members of the crew. If elicit substances are found on board the vessel, the same notification to the
Coast Guard will initiate a response to assist with removing the product(s) safely from the boat and protect thecrew. Finding and reporting unauthorized substances aboard your vessel DOES NOT suggest willful carriage,
storage, or use by members of the crew.

CARRIAGE OF NALOXONE (NARCAN)
Commercial fishing vessel owners, captains, and crews are highly encouraged to carry naloxone, or Narcan, on
board their vessels, as this lifesaving product can immediately reverse an overdose and save a life. The carriage
of Narcan DOES NOT imply that elicit substances are on board a vessel, nor does it suggest anyone in the crewhas, or has knowledge of, a drug problem or addiction; this is simply a first-aid item that can be the difference
between a life saved and an avoidable fatality. One can overdose on any medication, including prescription andover-the-counter drugs, and Narcan has the same intended effect, regardless of the substance(s) involved.

LOCAL RESOURCES AVAILABLE
The Coast Guard has teamed with the Greater New Bedford Waterfront Task Force and Fishing Partnership topromote safety and resources for the commercial fishing fleet. The Greater New Bedford Waterfront Task
Force regularly hosts FREE health and wellness events in the Port of New Bedford, whereby port partners
typically include the Coast Guard, Fishing Partnership, local harbormasters, local first responders, mobile
healthcare workers, behavioral health specialists, and Port Authority representatives. Some of the free services
offered include:• Immunzations• Narcan training and distribution• Overdose education• Health and blood pressure screening• Lifejackets for Fishermen rebate option• Nutrition and health information• Local, state, and federal regulations information
Additionally, the Fishing Partnership has two locations within the Southeastern New England area that provide
free services and resources to commercial fishermen, including:• Naloxone (Narcan) education and training• FREE Narcan distribution• Behavioral health services• Crisis response• Safety and survival courses for crews• CPR and first-aid training for crews• Health and cancer screenings• Vaccinations (flu, tetanus, pneumonia, etc.)• Health insurance enrollment

CONCLUSION
Crews are reminded that if someone experiences an injury, overdose emergency, or behavioral crisis while atsea, contact the Coast Guard Sector Southeastern New England Command Center via VHF Channel 16 or 22, orby phone at (866) 819-9128. Likewise, if elicit substances are found on board, the Coast Guard will assist withthe removal of such products without implication of involvement among the crew. All mariners are strongly
encouraged to read and share this informational bulletin widely.
