Abstract
The Corps is revoking the regulations which establish a danger zone in the waters of the Atlantic Ocean at the New Jersey National guard Training Vente, Sea Girt, New Jersey. According to the State of New Jersey, the danger zone is no longer needed due to the improvements made at the small arms firing range located at Sea Girt. The danger zone was established to protect the public from the hazards associated with the possibility of an errant round or ricochet from the range impacting into the waters offshore. The revocation of the danger zone is essential to allow a beach nourishment project to proceed and formalize full public use of the water areas offshore of the National Guard Training Center. The revocation of the danger zone regulations will not affect any other Federal, State, or local regulations in that area.
