A small part of Lake Michigan is now off-limits for fireworks

The Coast Guard has created a temporary "safety zone" in a section of Lake Michigan near Milwaukee. This means no boats or people can enter that area during a specific land-based fireworks display.

This is a routine, temporary measure to keep people safe during a fireworks show. It does not change any long-term rules about how Lake Michigan is used or regulated. It simply designates a small, temporary exclusion zone for a specific event.
