[Docket No. USCG-2020-0358]

Safety Zones; Annual Firework Displays Within the Captain of the 
Port Sector Puget Sound Area of Responsibility

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notification of non-enforcement of regulation.

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

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard will not enforce the Safety Zone for the 
Seattle Seafair Firework Display in Lake Washington, Seattle, WA in 
July 2020. The Captain of the Port Sector Puget Sound has determined 
that since Seafair has been cancelled in 2020, enforcement of this 
regulation is not necessary.

DATES: The Coast Guard does not plan to enforce the Safety Zone for the 
Seattle Seafair Firework Display in Lake Washington in 33 CFR 165.1332 
in July 2020.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have questions about this 
notification of non-enforcement, call or email CWO2 William E. 
Martinez, Sector Puget Sound Waterways Management Division, U.S. Coast 
Guard; telephone 206-217-6051, email SectorPugetSoundWWM@uscg.mil.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coast Guard normally enforces the 
Seattle Seafair Firework Display in Lake Washington, Seattle, WA in 33 
CFR 165.1332 annually during July. This year, the event organizers 
cancelled Seafair. Therefore, the Coast Guard does not plan to enforce 
the Seattle Seafair Firework Display in Lake Washington, Seattle, WA in 
33 CFR 165.1332, in July 2020.
    In addition to this notification of non-enforcement in the Federal 
Register, if the situation changes and the Captain of the Port Sector 
Puget Sound (COTP) determines that the regulated area needs to be 
enforced, the COTP will issue a Broadcast Notice to Mariners and 
provide actual notice of enforcement to any persons in the regulated 
area.

    Dated: June 23, 2020.
L.A. Sturgis,
Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Captain of the Port Sector Puget Sound.
