Nothing new... There has always been a no fly zone around the vessels when they visit... You are not dealing with federal law enforcement. The vessels are classified as a "National Assets" under military control.

You will see Coast Guard vessels in the area of course, but do not be surprised if you see private contractor's vessels also?
