NOTES:
|
|
|
|
NOTE A
|
|
Navigation regulations are published in Chapter 2, U.S. Coast Pilot 5. Additions or revisions to Chapter 2 are published in the Notice to Mariners. Information concerning the regulations may be obtained at the Office of the Commander, 7th Coast Guard District in Miami, Florida and 8th Coast Guard District in New Orleans, Louisiana, or at the Office of the District Engineer, Corps of Engineers in Mobile, Alabama and Jacksonville, Florida. Refer to charted regulation section numbers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE S
|
|
Regulations for Ocean Dumping Sites are contained in 40 CFR, Parts 220-228. Additional information concerning the regulations and requirements for use of the sites may be obtained from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). See U.S. Coast Pilots appendix for addresses of EPA offices. Dumping subsequent to the survey dates may have reduced the depths shown.

AUTHORITIES
|
|
Hydrography and topography by the National Ocean Service, Coast Survey, with additional data from the Corps of Engineers, Geological Survey, and U.S. Coast Guard.
|
|
|
|
|
|
RACING BUOYS
|
|
Racing buoys within the limits are not shown hereon. Information may be obtained from the U.S. Coast Guard District Offices as racing and other private buoys are not all listed in the U.S. Coast Guard Light List.
|
|
|
|
|
|
RADAR REFLECTORS
|
|
Radar reflectors have been placed on many floating aids to navigation. Individual radar reflector identification on these aids has been omitted from this chart.
|
|
|
|
|
|
POLLUTION REPORTS
|
|
Report all spills of oil and hazardous substances to the National Response Center via 1-800-424-8802 (toll free), or to the nearest U.S. Coast Guard facility if telephone communication is impossible (33 CFR 153).
|
|
|
|
|
|
WATER LEVELS, CURRENTS, AND TIDES
|
|
Real-time water levels, tide predictions, and tidal current predictions are available on the internet from NOAA's Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) at https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/water_level_info.html and https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/currents_info.html.
|
|
|
|
|
|
AIDS TO NAVIGATION
|
|
Consult U.S. Coast Guard Light List for supplemental information concerning aids to navigation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOAA WEATHER RADIO BROADCASTS
|
|
The NOAA Weather Radio Station listed below provides continuous weather broadcasts. The reception range is typically 20 to 40 nautical miles from the antenna site, but can be as much as 100 nautical miles for stations at high elevations.
|
|
|
|
East Point, FL WWF-86 162.500 MHz
|
|
|
|
|
|
MINERAL DEVELOPMENT STRUCTURES
|
|
Obstruction lights and sound (fog) signals are required for fixed mineral development structures, subject to approval by the District Commander, U.S. Coast Guard (33 CFR 67).
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAUTION - SUBMARINE PIPELINES AND CABLES
|
|
Additional uncharted submarine pipelines and submarine cables may exist within the area of this ENC. Not all submarine pipelines and submarine cables are required to be buried, and those that were originally buried may have become exposed. Mariners should use extreme caution when operating vessels in depths of water comparable to their draft in areas where pipelines and cables may exist, and when anchoring, dragging, or trawling. Covered wells may be marked by lighted or unlighted buoys.
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAUTION - HURRICANES AND TROPICAL STORMS
|
|
Hurricanes, tropical storms and other major storms may cause considerable damage to marine structures, aids to navigation and moored vessels, resulting in submerged debris in unknown locations. Charted soundings, channel depths and shoreline may not reflect actual conditions following these storms. Fixed aids to navigation may have been damaged or destroyed. Buoys may have been moved from charted positions, damaged, sunk, extinguished or otherwise made inoperative. Mariners should not rely upon the position or operation of an aid to navigation. Wrecks and submerged obstructions may have been displaced from charted locations. Pipelines may have become uncovered or moved. Mariners are urged to exercise extreme caution and are requested to report aids to navigation discrepancies and hazards to navigation to the nearest United States Coast Guard unit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAUTION - TEMPORARY CHANGES
|
|
Temporary changes or defects in aids to navigation are not indicated. See Local Notice to Mariners.
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAUTION - USE OF RADIO SIGNALS (LIMITATIONS)
|
|
Limitations on the use of radio signals as aids to marine navigation can be found in the U.S. Coast Guard Light Lists and National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency Publication 117. Radio direction-finder bearings to commercial broadcasting stations are subject to error and should be used with caution.
|
|
|
|
|
|
WARNING - PRUDENT MARINER
|
|
The prudent mariner will not rely solely on any single aid to navigation, particularly on floating aids. See U.S. Coast Guard Light List and U.S. Coast Pilot for details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
|
|
Consult U.S. Coast Pilot 5 for important supplemental information.

CAUTION - QUALITY OF BATHYMETRIC DATA
|
|
The areas represented by the object M_QUAL (Quality of Data) are approximate due to generalizing for clarity. Caution is advised, particularly for nearshore navigation or voyage planning. M_QUAL represents areas of uniform quality of bathymetric data. The CATZOC (Category of Zone of Confidence in Data) attribute of M_QUAL provides an assessment of the overall zone of confidence.
