Service life
The Spaceflight Chronology lists the Baton Rouge-class' time in service as being from 2170 SFC to 2210 SFC. Since the SFC timeline and the canon timeline are so different, service dates cannot be precisely converted; the best approximation would put the date range from circa 2226 to the mid-2270s. The class entered service in 2196, according to Federation: the First 150 Years (by Brad Goodman)
