HATTERAS INLET - BARNEY SLOUGH CHANNEL
ATON / Advanced Notice of Change
Location: 35-12.80N 075-44.03W Aid Name: Barney Slough Channel Lighted Buoy 16 LLNR: 28723.9 Action: DISCONTINUE Due to shoaling between Barney Slough Lighted Buoy 10 (LLNR 28722.7) and Hatteras Inlet Channel Light 24 (LLNR 28785), the Coast Guard will discontinue this section of channel (red route below), due to areas of extreme shoaling making available channel very narrow with depths as low as 1-2 feet MLW. Due to this extreme shoaling, the aids in this area are misleading and do not provide a safe route for the mariner. To mitigate the absence of these aids, the Coast Guard has established three Oliver Reef Buoys to help provide safe passage from Barney Slough Lighted Buoy 7 (LLNR 28722.4) and Rollinson Channel (yellow route below). Removal of the aids is scheduled to begin October 15, 2026. An additional comment period for interested mariners and other stakeholders is now open.

General / Bridges / Proposal
Location: 38-57.35N 074-52.45W Bridge Name: 621 County Route Bridge All interested parties are notified that the Commander, Coast Guard East District has received a proposal from the Cape May County Bridge Commission with plans for replacement of an existing highway drawbridge across a navigable waterway of the United States. WATERWAY AND LOCATION: Middle Thorofare, New Jersey Intracoastal Waterway (NJICW), at mile 112.2, at approximate location [38-57.35N 074-52.45W], and the Upper Thorofare, at mile 0.0, at approximate location [38-57.32N 074-52.62W] near Lower Township, Cape May County, NJ. CHARACTER OF WORK: The proposed project is to replace the Two-Mile drawbridge, located on County Route 621 (Ocean Drive), across the Middle Thorofare, NJICW, with a fixed bridge that will carry County Route 621 (Ocean Drive), across the Middle Thorofare, NJICW, and Upper Thorofare, near Lower Township, Cape May County, NJ. The purpose of the project is to address structural, geometric, carrying capacity, and operational deficiencies of the Cape May County Bridge Commission-owned bridge located across the Middle Thorofare, NJICW, on the Ocean Drive Causeway, and to provide safe, efficient, and reliable passage for all modes of transportation. The existing drawbridge across the Middle Thorofare, NJICW, has a horizontal clearance of 50.00 feet and a vertical clearance of 23.00 feet above mean high water in the closed position and unlimited vertical clearance in the open position. The replacement bridge will be a fixed bridge across Middle Thorofare, NJICW, and Upper Thorofare.
