Coast Guard Safety Zone, Richardson Bay, Sausalito, CA

The Coast Guard is establishing a new safety zone in Richardson Bay, Sausalito, California. Safety zones are implemented to protect persons, vessels, and the marine environment from hazards that may occur within a defined waterway area. This regulatory action prohibits unauthorized vessels and personnel from entering, remaining within, or conducting operations in the designated zone without express authorization.

Mariners operating in the San Francisco Bay area, particularly those in or near Richardson Bay, must comply with the new restrictions or face potential enforcement action. Vessel operators should monitor Coast Guard communications for specific dates, times, and boundaries of enforcement, as the safety zone may be activated for defined periods rather than on a permanent basis.
