    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    The W-43 (Ocean Avenue) Bridge has a vertical clearance in the closed position of 15 feet at mean high water and 18 feet at mean low water.

    The HNTB Corporation on behalf of Monmouth County, which owns and operates this double-leaf bascule drawbridge, has requested a temporary deviation from the general operating regulations set out in 33 CFR 117.5, to facilitate repairs.
