    summary: The Commander, Eighth Coast Guard District has issued a 
    temporary deviation from the regulation in 33 CFR 117.444 governing the 
    operation of the SR 315 drawbridge across the Falgout Canal, mile 3.1, 
    in Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana. This deviation allows the Louisiana 
    Department of Transportation and Development to maintain the bridge in 
    the closed-to-navigation position from 7 a.m. until 3 p.m. on Monday 
    through Wednesday, from June 7 through June 30, 1999 and from July 12 
    through July 21, 1999. During the scheduled closures, the bridge will 
    open for the passage of vessels at 9 a.m. and 12 noon. At all other 
    times outside the closed-to-navigation period, the bridge will open on 
    signal for the passage of vessels. This temporary deviation is issued 
    to allow for the painting of the bridge structure.
    
    dates: This deviation is effective from 7 a.m. on June 7, 1999, until 3 
    p.m., July 21, 1999.

    Branch, Commander (ob), Eighth Coast Guard District, 501 Magazine 
    Street, New Orleans, Louisiana, 70130-3396, telephone number 504-589-
    2965.
    
    supplementary information: Navigation on the waterway consists of tugs 
    with tows, fishing vessels, and other recreational craft. Louisiana 
    Department of Transportation and Development requested a temporary 
    deviation from the normal operation of the bridge in order to 
    accommodate the contractor in scheduling his work crews to repair the 
    bridge structure.
        This deviation allows the draw of the SR 315 drawbridge across the 
    Falgout Canal, miles 3.1, in Terrbonne Parish, Louisiana, to remain in 
    the closed-to-navigation position from 7 a.m. on Monday through 
    Wednesday, from June 7, 1999 through June 30, 1999 and from 7 a.m. 
    until 3 p.m. on Monday through Wednesday, from July 12, 1999 through 
    July 21, 1999. During the scheduled closures, the bridge will open for 
    the passage of vessels at 9 a.m. and 12 noon. At all other times, the 
    bridge will open on signal for the passage of vessels.
    
        Dated: May 20, 1999.

    Rear Admiral, Coast Guard Commander, Eighth Coast Guard District.
