The Coast Guard has issued a final rule to remove the regulation for the AMTRAK Dock Railroad Bridge along the Passaic River in Harrison, New Jersey. This decision follows the authorization to change the bridge from a movable to a fixed structure, making the existing regulations about its operation unnecessary. The rule does not impact waterway or land traffic and was included in the Federal Register to update the Code of Federal Regulations by removing obsolete operational language.
Simple Explanation
The Coast Guard decided to stop the rules for opening and closing a bridge because it will no longer move up and down. It's now fixed and doesn't need those special rules anymore.
