[Docket No. USCG–2017–0855] 

Drawbridge Operation Regulation; New 

Jersey Intracoastal Waterway (NJICW), 

Beach Thorofare, Margate City, NJ 

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of deviation from 

drawbridge regulation. 

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard has issued a 

temporary deviation from the operating 

schedule that governs the Margate 

Boulevard/Margate Bridge which carries 

Margate Boulevard across the NJICW 

(Beach Thorofare), mile 74.0, at Margate 

City, NJ. The deviation is necessary to 

facilitate urgent bridge maintenance. 

This deviation allows the bridge to 

remain in the closed-to-navigation 

position. 

DATES: This deviation is effective 

without actual notice from September 

21, 2017 through 7 p.m. on Sunday, 

October 8, 2017. For the purposes of 

enforcement, actual notice will be used 

from 7 a.m. on Monday September 18, 

2017 until September 21, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Margate Bridge Company, owner and 

operator of the Margate Boulevard/ 

Margate Bridge that carries Margate 

Boulevard across the NJICW (Beach 

Thorofare), mile 74.0, at Margate City, 

NJ, has requested a temporary deviation 

from the current operating schedule to 

facilitate urgent maintenance of the 

structural steel of the bascule spans of 

the double bascule drawbridge. The 

bridge has a vertical clearance of 14 feet 

above mean high water in the closed 

position and unlimited clearance in the 

open position. 

The current operating schedule is set 

out in 33 CFR 117.5. Under this 

temporary deviation, the bridge will be 

in the closed-to-navigation position 

from 7 a.m. on Monday, September 18, 

2017, through 7 p.m. on Sunday, 

September 24, 2017, and from 7 a.m. on 

Monday, October 2, 2017, through 7 

p.m. on Sunday, October 8, 2017. 

The Beach Thorofare is used by 

recreational vessels. The Coast Guard 

has carefully coordinated the 

restrictions with waterway users in 

publishing this temporary deviation. 

Vessels will not be able to pass 

through the bridge in the closed-tonavigation position, as two construction 

barges will be occupying the navigation 

channel during the closure periods. The 

bridge will not be able to open for 

emergencies and there is no immediate 

alternative route for vessels unable to 

pass through the bridge in the closed 

position. The Coast Guard will also 

inform the users of the waterway 

through our Local Notice and Broadcast 

Notices to Mariners of the change in 

operating schedule for the bridge so that 

vessel operators can arrange their 

transits to minimize any impact caused 

by the temporary deviation. 

In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), 

the drawbridge must return to its regular 

operating schedule immediately at the 

end of the effective period of this 

temporary deviation. This deviation 

from the operating regulations is 

authorized under 33 CFR 117.35. 

Dated: September 18, 2017. 

Hal R. Pitts, 

Bridge Program Manager, Fifth Coast Guard 

District.
