will remain at the loading location until its transit to the display

fireworks barge will transit from Pier 68 to the launch site near Pier
48 in approximate position 37[deg]46'36'' N, 122[deg]22'56'' W (NAD 83)

scene to assist the Coast Guard in enforcing the safety zone. During
the enforcement period, if you are the operator of a vessel in one of
the safety zones you must comply with the direction from the PATCOM or
other Official Patrol. The PATCOM or Official Patrol may, upon request,
allow the transit of commercial vessels through regulated areas when it
is safe to do so.
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.
If the Captain of the Port determines that the regulated area need
not be enforced for the full duration stated in this notification, a
Marine Information Broadcast may be used to grant general permission to
enter the regulated area.
