SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coast Guard will enforce the safety zone 
established in 33 CFR 165.1191, Table 1, Item number 30, for the 
Sausalito Lighted Boat Parade Fireworks on December 11, 2021. The 
Captain of the Port has delegated the authority to issue the

Department Head. The Coast Guard will enforce a 100-foot safety zone 
around the fireworks barge during the loading, transit, and setup of 
the fireworks barge from the loading location to the display location 
and until the commencement of the fireworks display. From 10 a.m. until 
5 p.m. on December 11, 2021, the fireworks barge will be loading 
pyrotechnics at Pier 50 in San Francisco, CA. The fireworks barge will 
remain at the loading location until its transit to the display

fireworks barge will transit from Pier 50 to the launch site near 
Sausalito Point in approximate position 37[deg]51'15.99'' N, 
122[deg]28'41.70'' W (NAD 83), where it will remain until the 
conclusion of the fireworks display. Starting at 7:15 p.m. on December 
11, 2021, 30 minutes prior to the commencement of the 10-minute 
fireworks display, the safety zone will encompass the navigable waters, 
from surface to bottom, surrounding the fireworks barge near Spinnaker

165.1191, Table 1, Item number 30. The safety zone will be enforced 
until 8:25 p.m. on December 11, 2021, or as announced via Broadcast 
Notice to Mariners.
    In addition to this notification of enforcement in the Federal 
Register, the Coast Guard plans to provide notification of this 
enforcement period via the Local Notice to Mariners.
    Under the provisions of 33 CFR 165.1191, unauthorized persons or 
vessels are prohibited from entering into, transiting through, or 
anchoring in the safety zone during all applicable effective dates and 
times, unless authorized to do so by the PATCOM or other Official 
Patrol defined as a federal, state, or local law enforcement agency on 
scene to assist the Coast Guard in enforcing the regulated area. 
Additionally, each person who receives notice of a lawful order or 
direction issued by the PATCOM or Official Patrol shall obey the order 
or direction. The PATCOM or Official Patrol may, upon request, allow 
the transit of commercial vessels through regulated areas when it is 
safe to do so.
    If the Captain of the Port determines that the regulated area need 
not be enforced for the full duration stated in this notice, a 
Broadcast Notice to Mariners may be used to grant general permission to 
enter the regulated area.
