Abstract:
Regulated Navigation Areas (RNA) as outlined in 33 CFR Part 165 are established to regulate vessels and their
movement within a specific area. The District Commander can issue an RNA to control vessel traffic in a
place determined to have hazardous conditions. RNAs usually prescribe what type or size of vessels may enter
an area or in what manner they must navigate. RNAs differ from Safety and Security Zones in two respects.
First, only District Commanders are authorized to establish RNAs while Coast Guard Captains of the Port may
not. Second, Safety and Security Zones are typically transitory in nature, responsive to a temporary safety
or security concern on the water. They are meant to control access to an area, but they could also be used
to control access based on compliance with specified temporary operating conditions within the Safety or
Security Zone necessary for the purpose of the zones creation. RNAs are usually created where a more
permanent solution to a safety or environmental concern is required. They principally regulate the operation
of vessels permitted inside the area, but may also establish control of access to an area if necessary.
Purpose:
To support ocean planning activities pursuant to the Executive Order Regarding the Ocean Policy to Advance the
Economic, Security, and Environmental Interests of the United States, the Energy Policy Act, the National
Environmental Policy Act, the Rivers and Harbors Act, and the Coastal Zone Management Act.

• Go to https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/CFR-2017-title33-vol2/xml/CFR-2017-title33-vol2-part165.xml and
record all RNA info into a word document
• For each area with coordinates, copy lat/long data into a spreadsheet
• Import sheets into ArcGIS, convert to xy coordinates, and export to point feature classes using
projection specified in CFR
• NOTE: Areas from the following locations were not included in mapping: 165.810 - area not in RNC to
locate 165.815 - area is inland 165.817 - area is inland 165.821 - area is inland 165.830 - area is
inland 165.1171 - area not in RNC to locate
• Create polygon features from point files, or specified areas in CFR
• Use the USA States, Water Polygons, ATONs, Maritime Boundaries and RNCs to help locate areas that
have unclear or no coordinate data
• Delete all superfluous fields
• Check geometry and project data into WGS 1984 Auxiliary Sphere
