U.S. National Marine Sanctuaries 2004

Mar 26, 2010
Description:
This dataset represents the boundaries of the National Marine Sanctuaries for the United States. The National Marine Sanctuary Program manages a system of sanctuaries and other managed areas around the country. The legal boundaries of these sanctuaries are defined within the Code of Federal Regulations, at 15 C.F.R. Part 922 and the subparts for each national marine sanctuary. The GIS compatible digital boundary files for each national marine sanctuary are representations of those legal boundaries and are based on the best available data. This dataset was compiled by the Conservation Biology Institute from a series of individual datasets obtained from the NOAA / National Marine Sanctuaries Program.
