SUMMARY: The Coast Guard will enforce a safety zone for the St. John 
the Baptist Independence Day Fireworks on July 1, 2021 from 8:45 p.m. 
through 9:45 p.m. to provide for the safety of life on navigable 
waterways during this event. Our regulation for marine events within 
the Eighth Coast Guard District identifies the regulated area for this 
event on the Lower Mississippi River, by Reserve Louisiana. During the 
enforcement periods, the operator of any vessel in the regulated area 
must comply with directions from the Patrol Commander or any Official 
Patrol displaying a Coast Guard ensign.

DATES: The regulations in 33 CFR 165.801, Table 5, line 2, will be 
enforced from 8:45 p.m. though 9:45 p.m. on July 1, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coast Guard will enforce the safety zone 
located in 33 CFR 165.801, Table 5, line 2, for the St. John the 
Baptist Independence Day Celebration event. The regulations will be 
enforced from 8:45 p.m. through 9:45 p.m. on July 1, 2021. This action 
is being taken to provide for the safety of life on these navigable

the Eighth Coast Guard District, 33 CFR 165.801, as updated by the 
Federal Register document published at 83 FR 55488, specifies the 
location of the regulated area on the Mississippi River between mile

safety zone, you must comply with directions from the Patrol Commander 
or any Official Patrol displaying a Coast Guard ensign.
    In addition to this notice of enforcement in the Federal Register,

period via a Marine Safety Information Bulletin and/or Broadcast Notice 
to Mariners.
