Original warning text

1. IMPROVED INFORMATION IN ADMIRALTY CHARTS 1235 (7TH ED)
   AND 1238 (3RD ED), BOTH DATED 17 APR 03, IMPLIES
   THAT THE CONTROLLING DEPTH FOR THE KHAWR ABD ALLAH
   AND UMM QASR IS NOW DRIVEN BY BERTH DEPTHS AT
   UMM QASR. THE DEEPEST AVAILABLE BERTH IS PRESENTLY
   BERTH 3, WITH A LEAST DEPTH OF 7 METERS. BERTH 3
   IS A DRY BULK BERTH ONLY.
2. AS DREDGING PROJECTS AT UMM QASR PROGRESS, THE
   CONTROLLING DEPTH FOR PORT ACCESS MAY SHIFT BACK
   TO KHAWR ABD ALLAH. AT TIME OF SURVEY, A NAVIGABLE
   DEPTH FOR KHAWR ABD ALLAH WAS 9.1 METER.
3. PER THE UPDATED ADMIRALTY CHARTS 1235 AND 1238,
   THE LOCATION OF SILTING, SHOALS AND WRECKS IN
   THE KHAWR ABD ALLAH WILL PRECLUDE A STANDARD
   TRAFFIC SEPARATION SCHEME. LARGE SHIPS WILL
   ENCOUNTER CHANNEL SECTIONS IN WHICH MANEUVERING
   WILL BE SEVERELY RESTRICTED DUE TO DRAFT.
4. ALL DEPTHS CITED ABOVE ARE TAKEN FROM ADMIRALTY
   CHARTS 1235 AND 1238. HYDROPAC 743/03, ADDRESSING
   SOUNDING ERRORS OF APPROXIMATELY ONE METER,
   REMAINS IN FORCE.
