Cincinnati Reds Season Fireworks; Ohio River Mile 470.1-470.4;

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of enforcement of regulation.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard will enforce a safety zone for the Cincinnati 
Reds Season Fireworks on the Ohio River, from mile marker 470.1 and 
ending at 470.4, extending 500 feet from the State of Ohio shoreline. 
This rule is effective during specific home games during the regular 
baseball season. Should the Cincinnati Reds make the playoffs and have 
additional home games, the Coast Guard will provide advance 
notification of enforcement periods via Broadcast Notices to Mariners, 
Local Notices to Mariners, and/or Marine Safety Information Bulletins 
as appropriate. This action is needed to protect vessels transiting the 
area and event spectators from the hazard associated with the 
Cincinnati Reds Barge-based Fireworks. During the enforcement period, 
entry into, transiting, or anchoring in the safety zone is prohibited 
to all vessels not registered with the sponsor as participants or 
official patrol vessels, unless specifically authorized by the Captain 
of the Port (COTP) Ohio Valley or a designated representative.

DATES: The regulations in 33 CFR 165.801, Table No. 1, Line no. 2 will 
be enforced from 9 p.m. through 11:30 p.m. on April 24, May 15, May 29, 
June 5, June 19, July 3, July 4, July 17, July 31, August 21, September 
4, September 11, and September 25, 2015.

of enforcement, call or email Kevin Cador, MSD Cincinnati, U.S. Coast

Table No. 1, Line no. 2. These regulations can be found in the

    Under the provisions of 33 CFR 165.801, a vessel may not enter the

passage through the safety zone must request permission from the COTP

persons and vessels shall comply with the instructions of the COTP Ohio 
Valley or designated representative.
    This notice is issued under authority of 33 CFR 165.801 and 5 
U.S.C. 552(a). In addition to this notice in the Federal Register, the 
Coast Guard will provide the maritime community with extensive advance 
notification of this enforcement period via the Local Notice to 
Mariners (LNM) and Broadcast Notice to Mariners (BNM). If the COTP Ohio 
Valley determines that the regulated area need not be enforced for the 
full duration stated in the notice, he or she may use a BNM to grant 
general permission to enter the regulated area.
