Summary

The Coast Guard is temporarily establishing a regulated navigation area on Biscayne Bay in Miami, Florida for the Fourth of July, 2016. This regulation is necessary to protect the public during upcoming Fourth of July events, a period during which a significant concentration of persons and vessels historically operate on the waters of Biscayne Bay. To ensure the public's safety, all vessels within the regulated navigation area are required to transit the regulated navigation area at no more than 15 knots; are subject to control by the Coast Guard officers and petty officers; and are required to follow the instructions of all law enforcement vessels in the area.
