The Coast Guard is proposing to establish a temporary special local regulation for certain waters of the Seddon Channel. This action is necessary to provide for the safety of life on these navigable waters near the Tampa Convention Center, Tampa, FL, during a marine event on November 9, 2024. This proposed rulemaking would establish a special local regulation with the following regulated areas: an event area where all non-participant persons and vessels are prohibited from entering, transiting through, anchoring in, or remaining within unless authorized by the Captain of the Port St. Petersburg (COTP) or a designated representative; a spectator area where vessels will be directed to anchor while the event is taking place; and an enforcement area where designated representatives may control vessel traffic as determined by the prevailing conditions. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking.
