Layer: Closed Areas (ID: 40)

Parent Layer: Groundfish

Name: Closed Areas

Display Field: AREANAME

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: This layer shows the five Northeast Multispecies Closed Areas (Closed Area I, Closed Area II, the Nantucket Lightship Closed Area, the Cashes Ledge Closed Area, and the Western Gulf of Maine Closed Area), which are closed to fishing in order to protect groundfish stocks. However, there are special programs that allow some fisheries, including groundfish, herring, surfclam/ocean quahog, and scallop to access some parts of these closed areas under certain conditions. Vessels may transit the areas that are closed provided that their fishing gear is stowed according to regulations. This dataset is from NMFS and represents areas and regulations mandated in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). This layer does not represent a legal definition of the Regulated Area. The description published in the CFR is the only legal definition.
