USCG User Survey - Waterways Study of San Juan Islands and Rosario Strait

Coast Guard conducts waterways analysis study of San Juan Islands and Rosario Strait seeks public comment

 

SEATTLE — The Coast Guard is conducting a Waterways Analysis and Management System (WAMS) review of San Juan Islands and Rosario Strait.

The Coast Guard uses WAMS to validate the adequacy of the existing aids to navigation (ATON) system, as well as to get a better understanding of the uses of each waterway and general safety issues.  WAMS focuses on the waterway’s present ATON system, marine casualty information, port/harbor resources, changes in marine vessel usage (both recreational and commercial) and future development projects.

The comment deadline will be June 20th, 2011.  To participate in a user survey contact:
