Limitation of anchorage use

Due to interference with dredging operations at Belmont Crossing, MM 154 AHP, usage of the Belmont Anchorage will be temporarily limited.

There are currently two vessels anchored there, with one, the AGIOS MAKARIOS, scheduled to depart tomorrow and the other, the PANAMANIAN, scheduled to depart August 14. Until the PANAMANIAN leaves, no other vessels will be allowed to use Belmont Anchorage, and after it departs it can only be used by one ship at a time until dredging operations at Belmont Crossing are complete.
