Service Description: This layer represents the boundaries of the US Coast Guard Cape Fear River Approach Anchorage Grounds, North Carolina.
The Coast Guard is amending the anchorage regulations for Lockwoods Folly Inlet, NC, and adjacent navigable waters, by establishing a new offshore anchorage, relocating the existing explosives anchorage, and amending the anchorage regulations. The purpose of this rule is to improve navigation and public safety by accommodating recent and anticipated future growth in cargo vessel traffic and vessel size that call on Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point and the Port of Wilmington, North Carolina.
This rule is effective July 21, 2022.
On May 8, 2020, the Coast Guard published a notice of inquiry in the Federal Register
(85 FR 27343) to solicit public comments on whether we should initiate a rulemaking to establish an anchorage ground offshore in the approaches to the Cape Fear River, North Carolina, and relocate the existing Lockwood's Folly Inlet explosives anchorage. After receiving favorable comments, the Coast Guard decided to propose the rulemaking. On August 17, 2021, the Coast Guard published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) in Federal Register
(86 FR 45936) and invited comments on the proposed anchorage. After considering comments made on the NPRM, the Coast Guard issued a supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (SNPRM) in Federal Register
(87 FR 17047) on March 25, 2022. There the Coast Guard stated why it issued the SNPRM and invited comments on its revised proposed anchorage regulation. During that comment period that ended April 25, 2022, the Coast Guard received one comment.
