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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard will enforce the safety zones for the Big Bay 
Boom Fourth of July Fireworks on the waters of San Diego Bay, CA on 
Monday, July 4, 2022. The safety zones are necessary to provide for the 
safety of the participants, spectators, official vessels of the event, 
and general users of the waterway. Our regulation for the Southern 
California Annual Firework Events for the San Diego Captain of the Port 
Zone identifies the regulated areas for this event. During the 
enforcement period, spectators may not anchor, block, loiter in, or 
impede the transit of official patrol vessels in the regulated areas 
without the approval of the Captain of the Port, or his designated 
representative.

until 10 p.m. on July 4, 2022 for the locations described in Item No. 5

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coast Guard will enforce the safety zone 
regulations in 33 CFR 165.1123 for the Big Bay Boom Fourth of July 
Fireworks regulated area, for the locations described in Table 1 to 
Sec.  165.1123, Item No. 5 of that section from 8 p.m. until 10 p.m. on 
July 4, 2022. This action is being taken to provide for the safety of 
life on navigable waterways during the fireworks event. Our regulation 
for Southern California Annual Firework Events for the San Diego 
Captain of the Port Zone, Item No. 5 in Table 1 to Sec.  165.1123, 
identifies the regulated areas for the Big Bay Boom Fourth of July 
Fireworks event which encompasses multiple portions of San Diego Bay. 
Under the provisions of Sec.  165.1123, a vessel may not enter the 
regulated area, unless it receives permission from the Captain of the 
Port, or his designated representative. Spectator vessels may safely 
transit outside the regulated area but may not anchor, block, loiter, 
or impede the transit of participants or official patrol vessels. The 
Coast Guard may be assisted by other Federal, State, or Local law 
enforcement agencies in enforcing this regulation.
    In addition to this notice of enforcement in the Federal Register, 
the Coast Guard plans to provide notification of this enforcement 
period via the Local Notice to Mariners, marine information broadcasts, 
and local advertising by the event sponsor.
    If the Captain of the Port or his designated representative 
determines that the regulated area need not be enforced for the full 
duration stated on this document, he or she may use a Broadcast Notice 
to Mariners or other communications coordinated with the event sponsor 
to grant general permission to enter the regulated area.

    Dated: April 18, 2022.
