For LABCAB- The Coast Guard "presense" does not just mean the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean. Any lake that borders 2 states (Greenwood in NY/NJ or Lake Tahoe (CA/NV) is federal waters. The Mississippi and other inland rivers are federal as well. I was stationed in Baton Rouge LA. on the Miss river, way inland. There is USCG in Iowa, Tenn, etc.
Go to www.uscg.mil and see where we all are.
