Safety Zone; WHALE Floating Production System Outer Continental Shelf Facility, Alaminos Canyon 773, Gulf of America
The Coast Guard is proposing to establish a safety zone around the WHALE Floating Production System (FPS), on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) in the Gulf of America. Establishing a safety zone around the facility will significantly reduce the threat of allisions, collisions, security breaches, oil spills, and releases of natural gas, and thereby protect the safety of life, property, and the environment. This proposed rulemaking would prohibit entry of vessels into this safety zone unless specifically authorized by the Commander, Coast Guard Heartland District or their designated representative. We invite your comments on this proposed rulemaking.
