First Coast Guard District Office of Aids to Navigation WAMS Review Presentation

Waterway Analysis and Management System (WAMS) History Initial Studies were conducted on all waterways between Reviews should be initiated every five years or when a major change takes place in a waterway (ex. Dredging) Reviews reach out to the public to get input on how to improve waterway efficiency and safety.

Assignment process Critical Waterways are reviewed every five years. Non critical are as needed but, we try to maintain a five year rotation. Groups and Sectors are assigned two reviews per year in April. Major AtoN cutters are assigned one review per year in April.

Review process Upon assignment the reviewing unit should prepare a statement for the Local Notice to Mariner notifying the public we are performing the review and who to contact with input.

Sample LNM entry MA-BOSTON HARBOR- The Coast Guard is conducting a Waterway Analysis and Management System (WAMS) study of Boston Harbor Side Channels and Bays. The study focuses on the areas aid to navigation system, waterborne commerce, marine casualty information, port/harbor resources, emergency response plans, communication capabilities and future development projects. Comments or suggested changes to the Aids to Navigation should be received no later then 01 July 2003 to be considered.
