The U.S. Coast Guard is proposing a permanent security zone in the main channel of Los Angeles Harbor. This zone would extend 40 yards into the water around the perimeter of the Coast Guard Base on Terminal Island.
Why it matters: This is a localized administrative change intended to create a buffer around a military installation. It will restrict movement for boaters or commercial vessels using that specific part of the harbor channel.
Who it affects
- Boat owners and operators navigating Los Angeles Harbor
This is a proposed rule from the U.S. Coast Guard; readers should consult the Federal Register to see the full text before planning any waterborne activities.
