avclsbr.ppt 05/2005Version 2.14 EIGHTH WESTERN RIVERS REGION -- AID VERIFIER TRAINING BRIDGE VERIFICATIONS AND REPORTING GENERAL BRIDGE LIGHTING REQUIREMENTS BRIDGE LIGHTING IS REQUIRED: n AS PRESCRIBED BY THE COAST GUARD DISTRICT COMMANDER FOR BRIDGES IN NAVIGABLE WATERWAYS n FROM SUNSET TO SUNRISE n IN PERIOD OF REDUCED VISIBILITY (LESS THAN ONE MILE) n TO BE VISIBLE FOR ONE MILE CLEARANCE GAUGES: n SHOULD BE READABLE FOR ONE-HALF MILE n ARE MAINLY FOUND ON FIXED BRIDGES n READING AT THE WATER LEVEL IS THE CLEARANCE FROM THE WATER TO THE MINIMUM LOW STEEL ELEVATION OF THE BRIDGE SPAN (FOR MOVEABLE BRIDGES, THE READING SHOWS THE CLEARANCE WHEN THE BRIDGE IS IN THE CLOSED POSITION.) ANYONE CAN, AND SHOULD REPORT DISCREPANCIES n HOWEVER, VERIFICATIONS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY A QUALIFIED AID VERIFIER

avclsbr.ppt 05/2005Version 2.15 EIGHTH WESTERN RIVERS REGION -- AID VERIFIER TRAINING BRIDGE VERIFICATIONS AND REPORTING THE CENTER OF THE MAIN CHANNEL AND ALTERNATE CHANNELS (IF ANY) ARE MARKED USING 360 DEGREE FIXED GREEN LIGHTS WHICH FORM A RANGE IN THE CENTER OF THE SPAN. THESE ARE CALLED: – " MAIN CHANNEL CENTER LIGHTS " OR " ALTERNATE CHANNEL CENTER LIGHTS " IF THERE IS AN ALTERNATE CHANNEL, THEN THE MAIN CHANNEL IS MARKED BY THREE VERTICAL 180 DEGREE FIXED WHITE LIGHTS LOCATED ABOVE THE GREEN MAIN CHANNEL CENTER LIGHT. THESE ARE CALLED: – " MAIN CHANNEL LIGHTS " Note: Bridges display lights that are specifically defined by Coast Guard permit. The lighting configurations may vary from the general descriptions in this presentation. Example: A Saint Louis bridge displays Main Channel Lights with flashing green characteristics (versus fixed white characteristics). FIXED BRIDGE LIGHTING
