SUNSET OF NOAA PRINTED CHARTS
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) encourages the maritime public to report information concerning suspicious activity to the local Federal Bureau of Investigation Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) Office, http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/investigate/terrorism/terrorism_jttfs, or to other appropriate authorities. The U.S. Coast Guard reminds the maritime industry that they may also report information concerning suspicious activity to the www.AmericasWaterwayWatch.org, the National Response Center (NRC) 1-800-424-8802 or 1-877-24WATCH.
The U.S. Coast Guard is responsible for placing and maintaining all aids to navigation. Buoys are set to mark project depths taking into consideration the prevailing river stages and obstructions. Buoy positions on the Inland Electronic Navigation Chart (IENC) are approximate, and subject to change depending on prevailing river stages and obstructions. Buoys should always be given as wide a berth in passing as possible, consistent with the length and width of the vessel or tow and the width of the bend or crossing. Buoys should always be used with caution. They may be carried off position by high water, accumulation of drift, ice, or sunk by collision or other causes. In those circumstances buoy marks will remain on the IENC and indicate the last known position of the buoy. Presence of a buoy mark on the IENC does not necessarily mean a buoy will be physically on position. When buoys are missing they will be replaced as soon as possible.
At times, throughout our area or responsibility, multiple U.S. Government Agencies conduct GPS testing. These tests vary in duration, affected range from the test site and potential impact to the maritime user as they may affect systems that rely on GPS such as E-911, AIS and DSC. More information is available at the U.S. Coast Guard Navigation Center Website, https://www.navcen.uscg.gov. During these periods, GPS usersare encouraged to report any GPS outages that they may experience, to the Navigation Information Service (NIS) by calling (703) 313-5900 or byusing the NAVCEN Website to submit a GPS problem report.
Multiple L/D’s on the Arkansas River, have varying states of availability and operations. Closures of locks will occur as local conditions warrant. Mariners are encouraged to contact the respective lock masters, for additional information regarding L/D closures or restrictions.
Attached as enclosures to this LNM, are USACE Arkansas River Channel Status Reports.
**** Cancellation of NOAA Paper and Raster Nautical Charts ****The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is undertaking a multi-year program to end production and maintenance of its suiteof over 1,000 traditional paper nautical charts and all associated raster chart products and services, including: Print-on-Demand (POD) paper nautical charts, Full-size chart PDF files, BookletChart™ PDF files, NOAA raster navigational charts (NOAA RNC®), the NOAA RNC tile service, and the online RNC viewer.Six months notice of the intent to cancel a specific chart is provided in a “Last Edition” notice. The final cancellation of a chart is made in a “Canceled” notice. Both types of notices will appear in LNM Section IV, “Chart Correction”. A comprehensive list of all canceled NOAA charts is available at: http://www.charts.noaa.gov/MCD/Dole.shtml.Traditional paper nautical chart production is ending to enable the creation and maintenance of larger scale, more up-to-date, higher quality coverage of NOAA’s electronic navigational chart (NOAA ENC®) product. This will significantly enhance the amount of charted detail available to

mariners. More information about NOAA’s program to sunset traditional paper charts is on the NOAA Coast Survey website at: https://nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/charts/farewell-to-traditional-nautical-charts.html.An online NOAA Custom Chart application at: https://devgis.charttools.noaa.gov/pod is available to create chart images from ENC data, which may then be printed. Notices to Mariners will not be issued for NOAA Custom Charts.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 concerns, mariners are required to follow the below procedure for crew change out at all Arkansas River L/D’s in the USACE Little Rock and Tulsa Districts: Industry shall contact the lock 4-hours in advance of anticipated crew change. The number and namesof the crew will be provided along with delivery of supplies. No industry personnel shall be allowed inside USACE control houses or buildings duringcrew changes, except in the case of medical emergency. Crew changes will still be allowed on the lock wall but industry must go directly from the vehicle to the motor vessel. Industry personnel will be required to use their own facilities while navigating through the lock. The physical exchange of trip tickets from crew members to lock staff members will still not be allowed and must be communicated by some other means priorto transiting the lock. Questions or requests for additional information, concerning this notice, should be directed to USACE Little Rock District Office at (501) 324-5739 or at [email protected].
The COTP Lower Mississippi River has issued a Safety Advisory, due to higher than expected channel shoaling and sediment buildup. Mariners areadvised to transit these rivers with caution, due to the hazardous conditions associated with missing or off station aids to navigation. Fleet operators should regularly check their fleets and immediately report barge breakaways to the U.S. Coast Guard Sector Lower Mississippi River via VHF-FM Channel 16 or at (866) 777-2744, for further information or to report areas of concern.
The COTP Lower Mississippi has issued a high water Safety Advisory from Mile 439.0 to Mile 303.0, due to hazardous conditions associated with strong currents, severe outdrafts, missing/off station aids to navigation and diving buoys. The COTP in concurrence with the Lower Mississippi River Committee recommends the following limits for tows transiting between Mile 439.0 and Mile 303.0, when the Vicksburg, Mississippi Gauge reaches 36 feet.Down-bound tows: Towing vessels must have at least 240 h.p., per barge, with a maximum tow size of 36 barges. Towing vessels with less than 6,000 h.p., a maximum tow size of 25 loaded barges. Towing vessels with 6,001 h.p., to 7,200 h.p., a maximum tow size of 30 barges. Towing vessels with 7,201 h.p. to 8,400 h.p., a maximum tow size of 35 barges. Towing vessels with greater than 8,401 h.p., a maximum tow size of 36 barges.Refer to the Waterways Action Plan, for further details.All up-bound tows must maintain an average speed of 3.0 MPH, over the ground for 2 miles leading up to the Vicksburg Bridges. If a tow is unable to average a minimum speed of 3.0 MPH, it must arrange for an assist tug or reduce tow size through the bridges. Fleet operators shouldregularly check their fleets and immediately report barge breakaways to the U.S. Coast Guard. Mariners are requested to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Sector Lower Mississippi River via VHF-FM Channel 16 or at (866) 777-2784, for further information or to report areas of concern.
