The Coast Guard just expanded its security zone around its San Juan base
What happened
The US Coast Guard has expanded the permanent security zone around its base in San Juan, Puerto Rico. No vessels or people can enter a 200-foot area around the base without specific authorization.
Why it matters
This is a small, routine change. Military and security installations regularly adjust their perimeters. The Coast Guard is simply making it official that its San Juan base now has a larger exclusion zone. This means boaters and local traffic will need to be more aware of the expanded restricted area.
The signal
Watch for any local notices or enforcement actions related to the expanded zone, especially for recreational or commercial vessels operating near the base.
