from 41[deg]29'59.5'' N and 081[deg]42'59.3'' W to 41[deg]30'4.4'' N
and 081[deg]42'44.5'' W to 41[deg]30'17.3'' N and 081[deg]43'0.6'' W to

a.m. through 1:15 p.m. on August 13, 2022. The scheduled date of zone
enforcement differs from that published in 33 CFR 165.939 in order to
accommodate the sponsoring organization's priority to better align
their event schedule with co-occurring special local events, other
paddle races taking place in the Great Lakes region, and to ensure
availability of the personnel and material resources required.
Pursuant to 33 CFR 165.23, entry into, transiting, or anchoring
within the safety zone during an enforcement period is prohibited
unless authorized by the Captain of the Port Buffalo or a designated
representative. Those seeking permission to enter the safety zone may
request permission from the Captain of the Port Buffalo via channel 16,
VHF-FM. Vessels and persons granted permission to enter the safety zone
shall obey the directions of the Captain of the Port Buffalo or a
designated representative. While within a safety zone, all vessels
shall operate at the minimum speed necessary to maintain a safe course.
This notice of enforcement is issued under authority of 33 CFR
165.939 and 5 U.S.C. 552 (a). In addition to this notice of enforcement
in the Federal Register, the Coast Guard will provide the maritime
community with advance notification of this enforcement period via
Broadcast Notice to Mariners or Local Notice to Mariners. If the
Captain of the Port Buffalo determines that the safety zone need not be
enforced for the full duration stated in this notice he or she may use
a Broadcast Notice to Mariners to grant general permission to enter the
respective safety zone.
Dated: May 10, 2022.
M.I. Kuperman,
Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Captain of the Port Buffalo.
