    • [EXPIRED] LNM: No Wake Zone Safety Zone, Beginning SC AICW Statute Mile 375 South


      For years and long before extreme ICW flooding, Cruisers Net has pleaded with boaters to reduce wakes as they pass through the low country of South Carolina. See No Wake Zone.

      ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY SAFETY ZONE
      HORRY COUNTY, SC

      The Captain of the Port Charleston (COTP) has established a temporary safety zone on all waters of the Waccamaw River from Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AICW) statue mile 375 near Enterprise Landing and AICW statue mile 366 near Fantasy Island Bridge, and along the Waccamaw River between Sandy Island and Barefoot Landing. Entry of vessels or persons into this zone is prohibited unless vessels proceed at speeds that do not create a wake. State and Federal authorities have determined that wakes from vessels transiting the area create increased hazards associated with high waters present in the area.

      This rule is effective from August 4, 2020, through August 18, 2020, or until waters recede and conditions allow for safe navigation, whichever occurs first. The duration of the safety zone is intended to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment while this area experiences high water conditions.

      For questions or concerns regarding this MSIB, please contact Sector Charleston Waterways Management Division at (843) 323-7761 or the Sector’s 24-hour Command Center at (843) 740-7050.
