33 CFR Part 117

[Docket No. USCG-2020-0694]

Drawbridge Operation Regulation; Gulf Intracoastal Waterway,
Madeira Beach FL

AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.

ACTION: Notice of temporary deviation from regulations; request for
comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Coast Guard has issued a temporary deviation from the
operating schedule that governs the Welch Causeway (SR 699) Bridge,
mile 122.8 at Madeira Beach, Florida. A request was made to place the
drawbridge on a daily operating schedule to alleviate vehicle
congestion due to on demand bridge openings. This deviation will test a
change to the drawbridge operation schedule to determine whether a
permanent change to the schedule is needed. The Coast Guard is seeking
comments from the public regarding these proposed changes.

DATES: This deviation is effective from 12:01 a.m. on January 1, 2021
through 11:59 p.m. on June 25, 2021.
    Comments and relate material must reach the Coast Guard on or
before February 25, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background, Purpose and Legal Basis

    The Welch Causeway (SR699) Bridge across the Gulf Intracoastal
Waterway, mile 122.8, at Madeira Beach, Florida is a double-leaf
bascule bridge with a 25 foot vertical clearance at mean high water in
the closed position and an 89 foot horizontal clearance between
fenders. The normal operating schedule for the bridge is found in 33
CFR 117.287(h). Navigation on the waterway is commercial and
recreational.
    The City of Madeira Beach Florida has requested the current
operating

schedule be modified due to the increased economic growth, vehicle
traffic in the area as well as a school located in close proximity to
the bridge. The City of Madeira Beach requested the bridge operation
logs from the bridge owner, Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT)
to validate the need for a regulation change. The Coast Guard has
reviewed these logs as well and determined a test deviation is needed
before proceeding with a rule change for the operation of this bridge.
    Under this test deviation, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., the draw shall
open on the hour and half-hour; except Federal Holidays and at all
other times, the draw shall operate on demand.
    The Coast Guard will also inform the users of the waterways through
our Local and Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the change in operating
schedule for the bridge so that vessel operators can arrange their
transits to minimize any impact caused by the temporary deviation.
    The Coast Guard will also inform the users of the waterways through
our Local and Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the change in operating
schedule for the bridge so that vessel operators 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.
