of a circle with a 350-foot radius from the fireworks launch site with 
its center in position 46[deg]46'40'' N, 090[deg]47'22'' W. During the 
enforcement periods, as reflected in Sec.  165.943(c), if you are the 
operator of a vessel in the safety zone, you must comply with 
directions from the Captain of the Port Duluth, or her on-scene 
representative.
    Entry into, transiting, or anchoring within the safety zone is 
prohibited unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Duluth or their 
designated on-scene representative. The Captain of the Port's 
designated on-scene representative may be contacted via VHF Channel 16. 
In addition to this notification of enforcement in the Federal 
Register, the Coast Guard plans to provide notification of this 
enforcement period via a Broadcast Notice to Mariners.
