NOAA Chart 12354 Long Island Sound (Eastern Part) – On-Demand Nautical Chart | NOAA

Overview

NOAA Chart 12354 for the Long Island Sound Eastern Part is a standard nautical chart produced by NOAA in collaboration with OceanGrafix. It is designed for mariners who value precision, clarity, and up-to-date information as they plan coastal passages and harbor approaches. This on-demand printing approach ensures you receive the most current data when you need it most.

Printed on demand, the chart reflects the latest Notice to Mariners (NTM) updates at the moment of production. That means a single, ready-to-use sheet that incorporates the newest corrections, helping mariners make informed decisions during voyage planning and on-water operations.

As a chart that meets SOLAS Chapter V definitions and U.S. Coast Guard carriage requirements, it provides a dependable framework for regulatory compliance and safe navigation. The combination of official data and timely production reduces the guesswork often encountered during critical planning phases.
