Description: This dataset depicts the boundaries of Atlantic Herring spawning areas which were designated by the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC). The ASMFC was formed in the 1940s by the Atlantic coastal states to better manage migratory fish species populations. There are three inshore management Atlantic herring spawning areas in the northeast which are closed to herring fishing in the fall to protect spawning females. While actual closure dates depend on the detection of ripe females, the default closure dates may be in place on August 15th, September 1st, and September 21st for the Eastern Maine, Western Maine, and New Hampshire/Massachusetts spawning areas, respectively. Spawning areas were initially established in 2000 and have been subsequently revised.
