33 CFR Parts 100 and 165
[Docket Number USCG-2025-0245]
2025 Quarterly Listings; Second Quarter; Safety Zones, Security
Zones, and Special Local Regulations
AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.
ACTION: Notification of expired temporary rules issued.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document provides notification of substantive rules
issued by the Coast Guard that were made temporarily effective but
expired before they could be published in the Federal Register. This
document lists temporary safety zones, security zones, and special
local regulations, all of limited duration and for which timely
publication in the Federal Register was not possible. This document
also announces notifications of enforcement for existing reoccurring
regulations that we issued but were unable to be published before the
enforcement period ended.
DATES: This document lists temporary Coast Guard rules and
notifications of enforcement that became effective, primarily between
April 2025 and June 2025, and expired before they could be published in
the Federal Register.
ADDRESSES: Temporary rules listed in this document may be viewed
online, under their respective docket numbers, using the Federal
eRulemaking Portal at <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">http://www.regulations.gov</a>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Coast Guard District Commanders and Captains
of the Port (COTP) must be immediately responsive to the safety and
security needs within their jurisdiction; therefore, District
Commanders and COTPs have been delegated the authority to issue certain
local regulations. Safety zones may be established for safety or
environmental purposes. A safety zone may be stationary and described
by fixed limits or it may be described as a zone around a vessel in
motion. Security zones limit access to prevent injury or damage to
vessels, ports, or waterfront facilities. Special local regulations are
issued to enhance the safety of participants and spectators at regattas
and other marine events.
Timely publication of these rules in the Federal Register may be
precluded when a rule responds to an emergency, or when an event occurs
without sufficient advance notice. The affected public is, however,
often informed of these rules through Local Notices to Mariners, press
releases, and other means. Moreover, actual notification is provided by
Coast Guard patrol vessels enforcing the restrictions imposed by the
rule. Timely publication of notifications of enforcement of reoccurring
regulations may be precluded when the event occurs with short notice or
other agency procedural restraints.
Because Federal Register publication was not possible before the
end of the effective period, mariners would have been notified of the
contents of these safety zones, security zones, special local
regulations, regulated navigation areas or drawbridge operation
regulations by Coast Guard officials on-scene prior to any enforcement
action. However, the Coast Guard, by law, must publish in the Federal
Register notice of substantive rules adopted. To meet this obligation
without imposing undue expense on the public, the Coast Guard
periodically publishes a list of these temporary safety zones, security
zones, special local regulations, regulated navigation areas and
drawbridge operation regulations. Permanent rules are not included in
this list because they are published in their entirety in the Federal
Register. Temporary rules are also published in their entirety if
sufficient time is available to do so before they are placed in effect
or terminated. In some of our reoccurring regulations, we say we will
publish a notice of enforcement as one of the means of notifying the
public. We use this notification to announce those notifications of
enforcement that we issued and will post them to their dockets.
The following unpublished rules were placed in effect temporarily
during the period between April 2025 and June 2025. To view copies of
these rules, visit <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a> and search by the docket number
