President Biden is visiting the area tomorrow. Haven't heard where he will be going but did see the Presidential helicopter flying around the site (in prep?) for tomorrow.

MD Marine - Call is being used today to coordinate / verfy vessel entry into the 2000' zone around the Key Bridge, probably related to Biden's visit.

Yeah, FiRST was very active (but mostly encrypted) for the Presidential Visit.

It seems like MD Marine Call is either strapped statewide, or EOCs monitor it over-the-air.

Winds seem to finally be letting up a bit. Storing scrap at Sparrows Point?

Due to weather-related operational delays, the precision cuts originally scheduled for Sunday have been moved to Monday, May 13, around 5:00pm.

The small charges, a standard controlled demolition tool, will split the large section of truss resting on the M/V DALI at specific locations to create multiple smaller sections, which allows salvors to use cranes and barges already on scene to clear wreckage and remove the vessel from the channel.

The current 2,000-yard safety zone around the #FSKBridge remains in effect and is intended to protect personnel, vessels, and the marine environment. No vessel or person will be permitted to enter the safety zone without obtaining permission from the COTP or a designated representative.

The Temporary Flight Restriction extends for two nautical miles in radius from the center of the bridge and from the surface up to and including 1,500 feet above ground level.

There is a zero-tolerance policy regarding any drone use anywhere within the “No Drone Zone” established by the FAA. Anyone who attempts to fly a drone in any prohibited manner may be subject to arrest, prosecution, fines, and/or imprisonment.
