This notice announces the establishment of Sector Jacksonville. Upon creation of Sector Jacksonville, Group Mayport and MSO Jacksonville will be incorporated into the Sector and no longer exist as specific entities. Sector Jacksonville will be composed of a Response Department, Prevention Department, and Logistics Department. All existing missions and functions performed by Group Mayport and MSO Jacksonville should be realigned under this new organizational structure as of August 16, 2005. 

Sector Jacksonville is responsible for all Coast Guard missions in the Jacksonville marine inspection zone, COTP zone, and Area of Responsibility (AOR). A continuity of operations order has been issued to address existing COTP regulations, orders, directives and policies.

The offshore boundary starts at the coast at 30-50.00N latitude; thence proceeds easterly to the outermost extent of the exclusive economic zone (EEZ); thence southerly along the outermost extent of the EEZ to 28-00.00N latitude; thence westerly along 28-00.00N latitude to the coast. All coordinates referenced use North American Datum 1983 (NAD 1983).
