Abstract
The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary regulated navigation area (RNA) on the Raritan River near the Raritan River Railroad Swing Bridge (mile 0.5) in Perth Amboy, NJ, due to bridge replacement construction. The RNA imposes a "Slow-No Wake" speed restriction, prohibits vessel transit in the south span channel, and other restrictions. Full enforcement periods of the regulated area, prohibiting all vessel entry, will be implemented only during hazardous construction operations involving multiple tugs and large barges maneuvering in and obstructing the navigable channel. This rule is necessary to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment from construction-related hazards.
