Minimum safe speed means the speed
at which a vessel proceeds when it is
fully off plane, completely settled in
the water and not creating excessive
wake. Due to the different speeds at
which vessels of different sizes and configurations may travel while in compliance with this definition, no specific
speed is assigned to minimum safe
speed. In no instance should minimum
safe speed be interpreted as a speed less
than that required for a particular vessel to maintain steerageway. A vessel
is not proceeding at minimum safe
speed if it is:

is the pulling force imparted by the tug
to the towline. It means the power that
an escort tug can apply to its working
line(s) when operating in a direct
mode.
Direct mode means a towing technique
defined as a method of operation by
which a towing vessel generates towline forces by thrust alone at an angle
equal to or nearly equal to the towline,
or thrust forces applied directly to the
escorted vessel’s hull.
Fire Wire means a length of wire rope
or chain hung from the bow and stern
of a vessel in port to allow the vessel to
be towed away from the pier in case of
fire; also called fire warp or emergency
towing wire.
Heel means the minimum quantity of
liquefied natural gas (LNG) retained in
an LNG tankship after unloading at
the LNG facility to maintain temperature, pressure, and/or prudent operations. A quantity of LNG less than
five percent (5 %) of the LNG tankship’s carrying capacity shall be presumed to be heel.
Indirect mode means a towing technique defined as a method of operation
by which an escorting towing vessel
generates towline forces by a combination of thrust and hydrodynamic forces
resulting from a presentation of the
underwater body of the towing vessel
at an oblique angle to the towline. This
method increases the resultant bollard
pull, thereby arresting and controlling
the motion of an escorted vessel.
LNG tankship means a vessel as described in 46 CFR 154.
Made-up means physically attached
by cable, towline, or other secure
means in such a way as to be immediately ready to exert force on a vessel
being escorted.

(a) Purpose and applicability. This section prescribes rules for all vessels operating in the Lower Mississippi River
below mile 233.9 above Head of Passes
including South Pass and Southwest
Pass, to assist in the prevention of
allisions; collisions and groundings so
as to ensure port safety and protect the
navigable waters of the Mississippi
River from environmental harm resulting from those incidents, and to enhance the safety of passenger vessels

circumstances permit and reduce their
speed sufficiently to preclude causing
damages to the vessel or structure
being passed. Since this subparagraph
pertains directly to the manner in
which vessels are operated, masters of
vessels shall be held responsible for
strict observance and full compliance
therewith. During high river stages,
floods, or other emergencies, the District Commander may prescribe by
navigation bulletins or other means
the limiting speed in land miles per
hour deemed necessary for the public
safety for the entire section or any
part of the waterways covered by this
paragraph, and such limiting speed
shall be strictly observed.
(3) Towing. Towing in any formation
by a vessel with insufficient power to
permit ready maneuverability and safe
handling is prohibited.
(c) Movement of vessels in vicinity of
Algiers Point, New Orleans Harbor:
(1) Control lights. When the Mississippi River reaches 8 feet on the
Carrollton Gage on a rising stage, and
until the gage reads 9 feet on a falling
stage, the movement of all tugs with
tows and all ships, whether under their
own power or in tow, but excluding
tugs or towboats without tows or river
craft of comparable size and maneuverability operating under their own
power, in the vicinity of Algiers Point
shall be governed by red and green
lights designated and located as follows: Governor Nicholls Light located
on the left descending bank on the
wharf shed at the upstream end of Esplanade Avenue Wharf, New Orleans,
approximately 94.3 miles above Head of
Passes; and Gretna Light located on
the right descending bank on top of the
levee at the foot of Ocean Avenue,
Gretna, approximately 96.6 miles above
Head of Passes. Governor Nicholls
Light has lights visible from both upstream and downstream, and Gretna
Light has lights visible from upstream,
all indicating by proper color the direction of traffic around Algiers Point.
From downstream, Gretna Light always shows green. All lights are visible
throughout the entire width of the
river and flash once every second. A
green light displayed ahead of a vessel
(in the direction of travel) indicates
that Algiers Point is clear and the ves-
sel may proceed. A red light displayed
ahead of a vessel (in the direction of
travel) indicates that Algiers Point is
not clear and the vessel shall not proceed. Absence of lights shall be considered a danger signal and no attempt
shall be made to navigate through the
restricted area.
NOTE: To provide advance information to
downbound vessels whether the control light
at Gretna (Gretna Light) is red or green, a
traffic light is located at Westwego on the
right descending bank, on the river batture
at the end of Avenue B, approximately 101.4
miles above Head of Passes.
(2) Ascending vessels. Ascending vessels shall not proceed farther up the
river than a line connecting the upper

G and the Wilson Cove section of the
safety zone described in paragraph (a)
of this section. Mariners must obtain
permission in accordance with the procedure described in paragraph (d)(2) of
this section before entering either of
those sections (paragraphs (a)(7) and
(8)).
(2) This regulation will be enforced in
Sections A through F of the safety
zone described in paragraphs (a)(1)
through (6) of this section except when
the Coast Guard notifies the public
that enforcement of the zone in specified sections is temporarily suspended.
Mariners need not obtain permission in
accordance with the procedure described in paragraph (d)(2) of this section to enter a zone section in which
enforcement is temporarily suspended.
At all other times, mariners must obtain permission in accordance with the
procedure described in paragraph (d)(2)
before entering any of those sections.
(3) The COTP will provide notice of
suspended enforcement by means appropriate to effect the widest publicity,
including broadcast notice to mariners,
publication in the local notice to mariners, and posting the schedule of restricted access periods by date, location
and
duration

(d) Regulations. (1) The general regulations governing safety zones found in
33 CFR 165.23 apply to the safety zone
described in paragraph (a) of this section.
(2) Mariners requesting permission to
transit through any section of the zone
may request authorization to do so
from the Fleet Area Control and Surveillance Facility (FACSFAC) San
Diego by either calling 619–545–4742 or
establishing a VHF bridge to bridge
radio connection on Channel 16. Immediately upon completing transit, the
vessel operator must promptly notify
the FACSFAC of safe passage through
the safety zone. Failure to expeditiously notify FACSFAC of passage
through the safety zone will result in a
determination by the Navy that the
vessel is still in the safety zone, thereby restricting the use of the area for
naval operations. If the Navy determines that facilitating safe transit
through the zone negatively impacts
range operations, the Navy will cease
this practice and enforce the safety
zones in these two areas without exception.
(3) All persons and vessels must comply with the instructions of the U.S.
Navy, Coast Guard Captain of the Port
or the designated representative.
(4) Upon being hailed by U.S. Navy or
U.S. Coast Guard patrol personnel by
siren, radio, flashing light, or other
means, the operator of a vessel must
proceed as directed.
(5) The U.S. Coast Guard may be assisted in the patrol and enforcement of
the safety zone described in paragraph
(a) of this section by the U.S. Navy and
local law enforcement agencies.

Humboldt Bay Area.
(d) Regulations. (1) In addition to the
arrival and departure notification requirements listed in title 33 CFR, part
160, Ports and Waterways Safety—General, subpart C—Notifications of ‘‘Arrivals, Departures, Hazardous Conditions, and Certain Dangerous Cargoes’’,
the owner, master, agent or person in
charge of a vessel to which this notice
applies shall obtain permission to cross
within four hours of crossing the Humboldt Bay Bar. Between 6:30 a.m. and 10
p.m., notification/requests for permission can be made to Station Humboldt
Bay on VHF-FM Channel 16, or at (707)
443–2213. If between 10 p.m. and 6:30
a.m., or if unable to reach the Station,
notification/requests for permission
can be made directly to Sector/Air Station Humboldt Bay on VHF-FM Channel 16 or at (707) 839–6113.
(2) Permission for a bar crossing by
vessels or towing vessels and their tows
to which this regulation applies is dependent on environmental and safety
factors, including but not limited to:
Sea state, winds, visibility, size and
type of vessel or tow, wave period, time
of day/night, and tidal currents. The
final decision to close the bar rests
with Humboldt Bay Sector Commander
or his designated representative. At a
minimum, Humboldt Bay Bar Channel
crossings by vessels subject to this advisory will generally not be permitted
unless all of the following conditions
exist: Proper permission to cross has
been received, sea conditions at the bar
are less than 6 feet, winds at the bar
are less than 30 knots, the transit will
take place during daylight hours, the
vessel has only a single tow or no tow,
the visibility at the bar is greater than
1,000 yards, and the vessel and tow are
in proper operating condition.
(3) If the bar is closed to vessels to
which this regulation applies, waiver
requests will be accepted within four
hours of crossing the entrance channel.
If the waiver request is made between
6:30 a.m. and 10 p.m., the request
should be made to Station Humboldt
Bay on VHF-FM Channel 16, or at (707)
443–2213. If between 10 p.m. and 6:30
a.m., or if unable to reach the Station,
the request can be made directly to
Sector/Air Station Humboldt Bay on
VHF-FM Channel 16 or at (707) 839–6113.
Waiver requests must be made by the
vessel master and must provide the following: A description of the proposed
operation, the conditions for which the
waiver is requested, the reasons for requesting the waiver, the reasons that
the requester believes the proposed operation can be accomplished safely,
and a callback phone number. The Station or Sector Watchstander receiving
the request will brief the Officer in
Charge of the Station who will then
brief the Sector Commander. The authority to grant waivers rests with the
Sector Commander or his designated
representative.
(4) In addition to the requirements in
paragraphs (d)(1)–(3) of this section,
vessels transporting liquefied hazardous gases or compressed hazardous
gases in bulk as cargo into or out of
Humboldt Bay are required to be aided
by two assist tugs. If the vessel carrying the gases is towed, the assist tug
requirement is in addition to the towing tug. The assist tugs shall escort the
vessel through its transit and must be
stationed so as to provide immediate
assistance in response to the loss of
power or steering of the cargo vessel,
its towing tug, or loss of control over
the tow.
(5) Vessels to which this regulation
applies may be required by the Sector
Commander or his designated representative to be escorted by a Coast
Guard vessel during their transit. In
addition, if a vessel master, agent, or
pilot has concerns about the safety of a
vessel’s transit through the Humboldt
Bay Entrance Channel, a Coast Guard
escort may be requested. Requests for
an escort should be directed to Station
on VHF-FM channel 16 or at (707) 443–
