Coast Guard Sets Up Temporary Security Zone on Ohio River in Cincinnati

The U.S. Coast Guard is establishing a temporary security zone on the Ohio River in Cincinnati, Ohio. The zone covers the entire width of the river between mile markers 461 and 473.

Why it matters: This is a standard, temporary operational measure. It does not change permanent regulations or long-term access rights. Its practical significance is limited to the specific time window when the protected individual is in the area, primarily affecting local boating traffic and commercial navigation in that specific stretch of the river.

Who it affects

• Commercial vessels and tugboats operating on the Ohio River between mile markers 461 and 473.
