How often is the local notice to mariners published?

The local notice to mariners is published weekly, which allows for timely updates on navigational hazards, changes in waterways, and information pertinent to the safety of mariners. This frequency ensures that boaters and mariners have access to recent and relevant information to navigate waterways safely. By providing updates on a weekly basis, authorities can effectively communicate any urgent changes or new findings that could impact navigation or safety. Since maritime conditions can change rapidly due to various factors, such as weather, construction, or environmental changes, a weekly publication cycle is appropriate for keeping mariners informed and safe on the water.
