description: These data represent critical habitat for the green sea turtle (North Atlantic DPS) as designated by Federal Register Vol. 63, No. 46693, September 2, 1998, Rules and Regulations.On April 6, 2016, the National Marine Fisheries Service and the US Fish and Wildlife Service issued a final rule (81 FR 20058) to list 11 DPSs of the green sea turtle (which had previously been listed as the entire species). The final rule stated that the existing 1998 critical habitat designation, i.e., waters surrounding Culebra Island, remains in effect for the North Atlantic DPS of green sea turtle.
licenseInfo: Users be advised that the accuracy of this data set is completely dependent upon the accuracy of the shoreline data used in the creation process. For more details on this process, see the process description. The text description in 63 FR 46701 is always the one, true definition of green turtle critical habitat. These or any other depictions are for information purposes only and shouldn't be relied on for regulatory purposes.
