SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. 

Army Rock Island Arsenal requested a 

temporary deviation for the Rock Island 

Railroad and Highway Drawbridge, 

across the Upper Mississippi River, mile 

482.9, at Rock Island, Illinois to remain 

in the closed-to-navigation position for 

a two-hour period from 8:30 p.m. to 

10:30 p.m., June 2, 2012, while a walk 

is held between the cities of Davenport, 

IA and Rock Island, IL. The Rock Island 

Railroad and Highway Drawbridge 

currently operates in accordance with 

33 CFR 117.5, which states the general 

requirement that drawbridges shall open 

promptly and fully for the passage of 

vessels when a request to open is given 

in accordance with the subpart. 

There are no alternate routes for 

vessels transiting this section of the 

Upper Mississippi River. 

The Rock Island Railroad and 

Highway Drawbridge, in the closed-tonavigation position, provides a vertical 

clearance of 23.8 feet above normal 

pool. Navigation on the waterway 

consists primarily of commercial tows 

and recreational watercraft. This 

temporary deviation has been 

coordinated with waterway users. No 

objections were received. 

In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), 

the drawbridge must return to its regular 

operating schedule immediately at the 

end of the designated time period. This 

deviation from the operating regulations 

is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35. 

Dated: March 12, 2012.
