in table 1 to paragraph (h)(1) to 33 CFR 165.506, entry 10 for the 
Rivers Casino Fireworks display 9 p.m. through 10 p.m. on May 29, 2022. 
This action is necessary to ensure safety of life on the navigable

enforcement period, as reflected in Sec.  165.506(d), vessels may not 
enter, remain in, or transit through the safety zone unless authorized 
by the Captain of the Port or designated Coast Guard patrol personnel 
on-scene.
    In addition to this notification of enforcement in the Federal 
Register, the Coast Guard will provide notification of this enforcement 
period via broadcast notice to mariners.
