Abstract:
These data represents geographic terms used within the National Marine Sanctuaries Act (NMSA). The NMSA was
originally enacted as Title III of the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act of 1972. The primary
objective of the NMSA is to protect marine resources, such as coral reefs, sunken historical vessels, unique
habitats, and submerged lands. National marine sanctuaries consist of designated marine waters, submerged
lands, and can extend up to the mean high water line. Marine waters include those within the 200 nm
Exclusive Economic Zone as well as state waters. For sanctuaries established within state waters or
submerged lands, the Governor of the States has the authority to veto the sanctuary, regulations, or
particular terms of designation. The NMSA also provides authority for cooperation with other nations and
organizations in special marine areas located outside of the United States. When investigating
geo-regulatory boundaries near the boundary edges, users should consult the most up-to-date applicable
jurisdictional boundaries from all respective authoritative sources.

Description:
1. Downloaded the Clean Water Act (CWA) from Marine Cadastre. The authority of the NMSA shares the
same geographical extent as the CWA (i.e. from the shoreline to the 200NM Exclusice Economic Zone).
2. Dissolved the three component geographies of the Clean Water Act into one.
3. Modified attribute values according to data dictionary and related to the NMSA.
