Summary

Abstract

Airport: Location of airports, airfields, landing strips, helipads, etc., whether they are manned or unmanned. Aquaculture: Location of aquaculture sites and facilities. When known, the site name, owner/manager, and contact information are provided on the data tables for each map. Archaeological/Historical Site: Location of archaeological and historic sites for coastal areas. These resources include known archaeological sites and historic sites for the USVI, and historic sites for the BVI. The exact location and extent of most of these sites are not represented on the maps due to their sensitivity to disturbance and vandalism. Instead, sites are depicted on the maps with an icon placed in the general vicinity of the site (or group of sites). In contrast, several specific sites managed by the National Park Service and the USFWS National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) program have been shown at the request of resource managers. For more specific site information and guidance during planning and response operations in the USVI, please contact the State Historic Preservation Officer at 340/774-3320 or 340/775-5706. For National Park Service (NPS) and National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) properties, the appropriate resource manager(s) should also be contacted. Artisanal/Commercial Fishing: General areas where artisanal and commercial fishing take place, as noted by resource experts. Note that fishing activities, including harvest of queen conch, lobsters, octopus, reef fish, pelagic fish, etc. may take place throughout the study area, including areas not identified in this atlas. Boat Ramp: Location of boat ramps. Coast Guard: Location of Coast Guard facilities. Dam: Locations of dams, mainly on the few streams where native fish or shrimp were noted. Designated Critical Habitat: Areas managed or regulated by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) or National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) as critical habitat for federally-listed threatened and endangered species, under authority of the U.S. Endangered Species Act as amended. The species involved, responsible agency, and contact information are provided on the data tables for each map. Dive Site: Location of popular recreational SCUBA diving and snorkeling sites. Ferry: Location of major ferry landings. Marina: Location of marinas. Boat ramps, hoists, and other facilities and support services may be present at certain marinas as well. Recreational Beach: Location of recreational beaches used for activities such as swimming, sun-bathing, etc. U.S. National Park: Areas managed by the National Park Service in the U.S., including national parks, national historic sites, national monuments, etc. Site names and contact information are provided on the data tables for each map. BVI National Park: Areas in the BVI managed by the National Parks Trust as national parks and national marine parks. Site names and contact information are provided on the data tables for each map. Recreational Fishing: General areas where recreational fishing takes place, as noted by resource experts and other sources. Note that a variety of fishing activities may take place throughout the study area, including areas not identified in this atlas. Water Intake: Location of surface water intakes. When known, the site name, owner/manager, and telephone number are provided on the data tables for each map. | Description Source: Research Planning, Inc.
