Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Harlem River, New York, NY

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard has modified a temporary deviation from the
operating schedule that governs the 125th Street (Triborough) Bridge
across the Harlem River, mile 1.3, at New York, NY. This modified
deviation extends the period the bridge may remain in the closed-to-
navigation position and is necessary to facilitate rehabilitation of
the mechanical and electrical components of the bridge.

DATES: This modified deviation is effective from 12:01 a.m. May 16,
2017 to 11:59 p.m. June 19, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 22, 2016, the Coast Guard
published a temporary deviation entitled ``Drawbridge Operation
Regulation; Harlem River, New York, New York'' in the Federal Register
(81 FR 93820). That temporary deviation allows the bridge to be in the
closed position from January 17, 2016 through May 15, 2017. The bridge
owner, Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority (TBTA), has requested a
modification of the currently published deviation to extend the bridge
closure from May 15, 2017 to June 19, 2017 in order to facilitate
rehabilitation of the mechanical and electrical components of the
bridge.
    The 125th Street Bridge, mile 1.3, across the Harlem River, has a
vertical clearance in the closed position of 54 feet at mean high water
and 59 feet at mean low water. The existing bridge operating
regulations are found at 33 CFR 117.789(b)(1).
    Although the waterway is transited by commercial tugs, barges and
recreational vessels, there have been no requests for bridge openings
in the past two years. The Coast Guard notified known companies of the
commercial vessels that transit the area, the NYPD, and the FDNY; there
were no objections to this temporary deviation modification.
    Under this temporary deviation modification, the 125th Street
Bridge may remain in the closed position from May 16, 2017 to June 19,
2017. Vessels able to pass under the bridge in the closed position may
do so at any time. The bridge will not be able to open for emergencies
and there is an alternate route for vessels to pass.
    The Coast Guard will inform the users of the waterways through our
Local Notice and Broadcast to Mariners of the change in operating
schedule for the bridge so that vessel operations can arrange their
transits to minimize any impact caused by the temporary deviation.
    In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e), the drawbridge must return to
its regular operating schedule immediately at the end of the effective
period of this temporary deviation. This deviation from the operating
regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.

    Dated: April 20, 2017.
C.J. Bisignano,
Supervisory Bridge Management Specialist, First Coast Guard District.
