This data set contains areas designated as undeveloped coastal barriers
in accordance with the Coastal Barrier Resources Act, as amended. This
boundary data set was digitized between 4/1/2007 and 4/1/2010 from the
official John H. Chafee Coastal Barrier Resources System (CBRS) maps
enacted by law. This data set complies with the National Spatial Data
Infrastructure (NSDI) and other standards established by the Federal
Geographic Data Committee (FGDC). The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(FWS) endorses this data set as having been compiled to meet forty feet
horizontal accuracy at the ninety-five percent confidence level relative
to the boundaries shown on the official CBRS maps. However, these
digital boundaries are only representations of the official CBRS
boundaries and are not to be considered authoritative. The FWS is not
responsible for any misuse or misinterpretation of this digital data
set, including use of these boundaries to determine eligibility for
federal financial assistance such as federal flood insurance. The
official CBRS maps are enacted by Congress and maintained by the FWS.
Copies of the official CBRS maps are available for viewing at the FWS
national headquarters, regional and field (local) offices, and are also
available for download at
http://www.fws.gov/habitatconservation/coastal_barrier.htm. For an
official determination of whether or not an area or specific property is
located within the CBRS, or for any questions regarding the CBRS, please
contact your local FWS office. Contact information for FWS field
offices can be found at http://www.fws.gov.
