The Coast Guard wants to expand its security zone around Base San Juan

The US Coast Guard proposes to expand the security zone around its base in San Juan, Puerto Rico. This means vessels and people would be prohibited from coming within 120 yards of the base's waterfront without special permission.

This is a small, local change, but it reflects a broader trend of increased security around military and critical infrastructure sites. The Coast Guard says this is for national security and public protection. It means less public access to the waters around the base.
