End Further Info End Preamble Start Supplemental InformationSUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development has requested a temporary deviation in order to repair two clutches and damaged electrical circuits of the vertical lift span bridge across Bayou LaLoutre at mile 22.9 at Ycloskey, St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana. This maintenance is essential for the continued safe operation of the bridge. This temporary deviation will allow the bridge to remain in the closed-to-navigation position from 9 a.m. on Tuesday, May 6, 2003, through 3 p.m. on Thursday, May 8, 2003.
The vertical lift span bridge has a vertical clearance of 2.5 feet above mean high water, elevation 3.0 feet Mean Sea Level and 4.5 feet above mean low water, elevation 1.0 Mean Sea Level in the closed-to-navigation position. Navigation at the site of the bridge consists mostly of fishing, shrimp and trawl boats. This three day closure will not have a significant effect on these vessels. This closure has been scheduled so as to have the least impact on navigation by scheduling the work in the middle of the week for recreational boaters and outside the trawling season for commercial fishermen. The bridge normally opens to pass navigation an average of 700 times per month during the trawling off-season. In accordance with 33 CFR 117.5, the draw of the bridge opens on signal. The bridge will not be able to open for emergencies during the closure period. No alternate routes are available.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(c), this work will be performed with all due speed in order to return the bridge to normal operation as soon as possible. This deviation from the operating regulations is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.
