Federal Georegulations Identification

This layer is intended for querying purposes only for select federal georegulations featured in MarineCadastre.gov. When investigating geo-regulatory boundaries near the boundary edges, users should consult the most up to date applicable jurisdictional boundaries available on MarineCadastre.gov. These geo-regulatory boundaries have not been updated in more than 13 years.

To support coastal and ocean planning and other activities pursuant to the Energy Policy Act, Coastal Zone Management Act, Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, National Environmental Policy Act, Rivers and Harbors Act and the Submerged Lands Act.

The attributes in this dataset are believed to be accurate.

Maximum scale of intended use is 1:80,000.

Spatial and attribute properties are believed to be complete. Geometric thresholds from original data are preserved. No tests have been completed for exhaustiveness. Areas are known to be incomplete and outdated. Areas where SLA or other jurisdictional boundaries have changed after 2001 or were not available may not be exact. This is a database view created using the FederalGeoregulations (FG Table) and FederalGeoregulationsLookup (FG Lookup) tables and linking these to the FederalGeoregulationsFootprint (FG Footprint) feature class. This assigns the various laws found in the lookup table with the spatial footprint.
