“In response to the expected increase in port operations, we would like to remind operators of the anchorage requirements of 33CFR110.157(b)(2) “No vessel shall occupy any prescribed anchorage for a longer period than 48 hours without a permit from the Captain of the Port. Vessels expecting to be at anchor for more than 48 hours shall obtain a permit from the Captain of the Port for that purpose.” Anchorage A (Big Stone) is exempted from this requirement.” Please send anchorage extension requests to SECDELBAYCC@uscg.mil.”
