In a significant milestone following Hurricane Harvey, the High Saturn has become the inaugural vessel to dock in Corpus Christi since the storm's aftermath. This historic arrival took place on August 31, 2017, at the Citgo Oil Dock 1, marking a critical step towards recovery for the region's port operations. On September 1, the Coast Guard Captain of the Port Zone Houston-Galveston declared a Port Condition Recovery status, orchestrating controlled navigation for various waterways in the region. As of 1:30 p.m., the following channels are open to both day and night transit under the supervision of Vessel Traffic Service Houston-Galveston: Galveston Bay Entrance Channel, Outer Bar Channel, Inner Bar Channel, Bolivar Roads Anchorages, Bolivar Roads Channel, and Galveston Harbor, as well as Freeport and the Texas City Channel, including the Texas City Turning Basin and Industrial Canal. However, it is important to note that the Houston Ship Channel above Lighted Buoy 18, extending to Mitchell’s Point, remains closed to all ship and tow traffic. The VTS Houston-Galveston will manage specific movements through light boats and harbor tugs on a case-by-case basis for areas above Mitchell’s Point. For daytime operations only, the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway from Mile Marker 350 Westbound to Freeport is open to single barge traffic. Anticipated adjustments to these parameters will be communicated by VTS Houston-Galveston following further surveys. Additionally, the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway from Mile Marker 350 to Bolivar Barge Terminal at MM343.5 is cleared for 24-hour tow traffic. Vessel Traffic Service will provide notifications once the waterway between MM343.5 and the eastern boundary of the COTP zone at High Island is opened.
