Coast Guard will enforce the same safety zones at the same annual events

The Coast Guard announced it will enforce existing safety zones during annual events in the Eastern Great Lakes. This means vessels must continue to avoid these areas or get permission during specific times, as they have in previous years.

This document is a routine announcement of operational enforcement. It does not change any rules, costs, or liabilities for vessels or the Coast Guard. It simply confirms that existing regulations will be actively monitored during specific annual events.
