The U.S. Coast Guard has a new plan. This plan is for the sea from Maine to New Jersey. The Coast Guard helps keep the waters safe for everyone.
The plan is to remove many buoys from the water. Buoys are large, floating markers. They help boats find their way and avoid danger.
Many boaters are not happy with this plan. They like the buoys very much. For years, they have used these markers to travel safely on the water.
The boaters want to keep the buoys. The Coast Guard says new technology is better, but the boaters trust the old, familiar markers in the sea.
