A federal official said Saturday that state police and Coast Guard boats were enforcing a 50-yard buffer around the dolphins.

In the meantime, biologists say the dolphins seem to be in good health as they feed on fish in the river.
Officials are worried about the many boats that have been crowding the river as people gather to watch the aquatic mammals.
