This action is being taken to provide for the safety of life on navigable waterways during this event. Our regulation for marine events within Northern California, § 100.1103, specifies the location of the regulated area for the Sacramento Ironman Swim which encompasses portions of the American River and Sacramento River.

During the enforcement period, if you are the operator of a vessel that participates in the marine event within the regulated area, you must follow the route established by the marine event sponsor, and comply with directions from the Patrol Commander or other Official Patrol. The PATCOM or Official Patrol may, upon request, allow the transit of commercial vessels through regulated areas when it is safe to do so. In addition to this notification of enforcement in the Federal Register , the Coast Guard plans to provide notification of this enforcement period via Local Notice to Mariners. If the Captain of the Port determines that the regulated area need not be enforced for the full duration stated in this notification, a Broadcast Notice to Mariners may be used to grant general permission to enter the regulated area.
