§150.355. How are other vessels cleared to move within the safety zone?
33 C.F.R. § 150.355
Clearance by a manned deepwater port's person in charge of vessel operations is required before a vessel, other than a tanker or support vessel, enters the safety zone.
The port's person in charge of vessel operations may clear a vessel under paragraph (a) of this section only if its entry into the safety zone would not:
Interfere with the purpose of the deepwater port;
Endanger the safety of life, property, or environment; or
Be prohibited by regulation.
At an unmanned deepwater port, such as a submerged turret landing (STL) system, paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section apply once a tanker connects to the STL buoy.
