This rule revises the Regulated Navigation Area (RNA) in Puget Sound and adjacent waters in northwestern Washington. This amendment is needed due to the large numbers of user conflicts and potentially hazardous situations which frequently develop during periods of vessel traffic congestion within the area, e.g., all citizens gillnet fishery. The intended effect of this action is to prevent vessel collisions and groundings, loss of property, loss of life, and environmental damage, resulting from conflicts between the varied users of these waters, including fishing vessels, pleasure craft, ferries, towboats, and deep draft vessels.
