NOTES:
|
|
|
|
NOTE A
|
|
Navigation regulations are published in Chapter 2 of each regional U.S. Coast Pilot. Additions or revisions to Chapter 2 are published in the Notice to Mariners. Information concerning the regulations may be obtained from the Coast Guard District Commander. Refer to charted regulation section numbers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
AIDS TO NAVIGATION
|
|
Consult U.S. Coast Guard Light List for supplemental information concerning aids to navigation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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).
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
|
|
Consult U.S. Coast Pilot 5 for important supplemental information.
|
|
|
|
|
|
CAUTION - TEMPORARY CHANGES
|
|
Temporary changes or defects in aids to navigation are not indicated. See Local Notice to Mariners.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.

ADMINISTRATION AREA
|
|
The entire extent of this ENC cell falls within the limits of an Administration Area. This area covers land, internal waters, and territorial sea. The territorial sea is a maritime zone over which the United States exercises sovereignty extending to the airspace as well as to its bed and subsoil. For more information, please refer to the Coast Pilot.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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 their 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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
RACING BUOYS
|
|
Racing buoys within the limits of this chart 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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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 .
