    Reading Time:about 9 minutes

    The Coast Guard issued a temporary rule, effective from February 9, 2021, until March 15, 2021, establishing a safety zone on the Lower Mississippi River between mile markers 330 and 360. This safety zone prohibits entry to protect people and property from potential hazards due to the US Army Corps of Engineers' operations in the area. Entry is only allowed with permission from the Captain of the Port Sector Lower Mississippi River or a designated representative, and boaters can request access via VHF-FM radio or telephone. The Coast Guard will inform the public about the enforcement via notices and bulletins.

    Simple Explanation

    The Coast Guard made a temporary rule that says boats can't go into a special area on the Mississippi River because there are people working on the riverbanks. They need boats to stay away for safety reasons, but if a boat really needs to go there, they can ask for special permission.
