SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

The existing regulations for the Memorial Drawbridge in 33 CFR 117.261(g), require the drawbridge to open on signal; except that from 7:45 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. and from 4:45 p.m. to 5:45 p.m., Monday through Saturday except Federal holidays, the draw need open only at 8:15 a.m. and 5:15 p.m.

Volusia county officials notified the Coast Guard on October 1, 2002, that they needed to operate the bridge on a single leaf schedule to effect emergency repairs. The drawbridge will be closed to vehicular traffic during the entire period of repair. The Commander, Seventh Coast Guard District has granted a temporary deviation from the operating requirements listed in 33 CFR 117.261(g) to complete emergency repairs to the drawbridge. This deviation, the Memorial Drawbridge, mile 830.6 at Daytona, need only open a single leaf, from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. on November 2, 2002 to December 31, 2002. A double leaf opening is available with a 30minute advance notice to the bridge tender.
