I. Purpose. This appendix contains a gen eral description of the deepwater port safety zone designated and developed during the license application review proc ess for each deepwater port that has beer authorized for contruction and operation, off the United States coastline. Annexes show, to the nearest second of latitude and longitude, the geographical boundaries of each resultant safety zone. (Shipping safety L fairways associated with the Deepwater Ports are descibed in Part 166 of this Title.)

The regulations in Subpart C of this part concerning vessel navigation and activities permitted and prohibited at U.S. deepwater ports apply only in the safety zone areas and adjacent waters and supplement the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea.

II. Authority. Section 10(d) of the Deepwater Port Act of 1974 (88 Stat. 2138 (33 U.S.C. 1509(d))) and Section 4(c) of the Ports and Waterways Safety Act, as amended (33 U.S.C. 1223(c)); 49 CFR 1.46.

III. General. Deepwater port safety zones are established to promote safety of life and property, marine environmental protection and navigational safety at any deepwater port and adjacent waters. In a deepwater port safety zone no installations, structures, or uses that are incompatible with port operations are permitted. The configuration of each designated safety zone is depicted on current editions of the navigational charts that cover the deepwater port area.

IV. Modifications. Safety zone boundaries are subject to modification as experience is gained in U.S. deepwaters port operations.

Modifications will be made only after due notification and consideration of the views of interested persons.

V. Geographic coordinates expressed in terms of latitude or longitude, or both, are not intended for plotting on maps or charts whose referenced horizontal datum is the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83), unless such geographic coordinates are expressly labeled NAD 83. Geographic coordinates without the NAD 83 reference may be plotted on maps or charts referenced to NAD 83 only after application of the appropriate corrections that are published on the particular map or chart being used.

As used in this subpart

"Act" means the Act to Prevent Pollution from Ships, as amended (33 U.S.C. 1901-1911).

"Cargo associated wastes" means all materials which have become wastes as a result of use on board a ship for cargo stowage and handling. Cargo associated wastes include, but are not limited to dunnage, shoring, pallets, lining and packing materials, plywood, paper, cardboard, wire, and steel strapping.

"Clean ballast" means the ballast in a tank which, since oil was last carried therein, has been so cleaned that effluent therefrom, if it were discharged from a ship that is stationary into clean calm water on a clear day would not produce visible traces of oil on the surface of the water or adjoining shorelines or cause a sludge or emulsion to be deposited beneath the surface of the water or upon adjoining shorelines. If the ballast is discharged through an oil discharge monitoring and control system approved by the government of the country under whose authority the ship is operating, evidence based on such a system, to the effect that the oil content of the effluent does not exceed 15 parts per million (ppm) is determinative that the ballast is clean.
