Agency: Homeland Security Department, Coast Guard
The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary special local regulation for the navigable waters of Casco Bay, in the vicinity of Cow Island, in the Town of Long Island, ME, to support an offshore concert with spectator vessels. This regulation is needed to protect spectators and mariners from safety risks associated with a large gathering on the water. The regulation will temporarily establish a spectator area and two safe access lanes for transit and emergency response while also prohibiting swimming and creating a speed restriction/no wake zone.
