A 900-foot circle of Corpus Christi Bay is now off-limits for fireworks
What happened
The Coast Guard is creating a temporary safety zone in Corpus Christi Bay. This zone will keep people and boats away from a fireworks launch.
Why it matters
This is a routine, temporary measure. It prevents boats from getting too close to a specific fireworks display. The Coast Guard regularly establishes these zones for various events to ensure public safety on navigable waters.
The signal
Watch for the specific dates and times the zone is active, and when it is lifted.
