āAnchorage Regulations Updated for Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbors
The Coast Guard is amending the anchorage regulations for Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbors. This action would amend Anchorages F and G, and update anchorage usage and communication requirements. The purpose of this final rule is to improve navigation safety by modifying Anchorage F and G to accommodate an increased volume of vessel traffic and larger vessels calling on the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and alleviate vessels anchoring near a subsea pipeline.

The Coast Guard is proposing to establish moving safety zones around vessels carrying oversized cargo within the Los Angeles-Long Beach Port Complex in San Pedro Bay. Safety zones around vessels carrying oversized cargo during movements within the port complex would ensure navigational safety and minimize mishaps disrupting the navigational channels. Entry of persons or vessels into these safety zones would be prohibited unless specifically authorized by the Captain of the Port (COTP) Los Angeles-Long Beach or their designated representative. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking.
