Abstract: |
This data represents the extent of the Abandoned Shipwreck Act (ASA). The ASA allows states to manage a broad range of resources within submerged lands, including abandoned shipwrecks that have been deserted and to which the owner has relinquished ownership rights with no retention. With the exception of wrecks on certain federal public lands, the ASA asserts U.S. title to abandoned shipwrecks and automatically transfers the title to coastal states. Citing to the Submerged Lands Act, the ASA generally extends seaward a distance of three nautical miles from the coastline to the inner limit of the outer continental shelf. In the cases of Texas, the Gulf coast of Florida, and Puerto Rico, the ASA extends seaward three marine leagues-or nine nautical miles-from the coastline. 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. - Source: https://www.nps.gov/history/local-law/FHPL_AbndShipwreck.pdf - Date Enacted: April 28, 1988 - Codification: 43 U.S.C.

Purpose: |
To support coastal and ocean planning and other activities pursuant to the Energy Policy Act, Coastal Zone Management Act, Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, National Environmental Policy Act, Rivers and Harbors Act and the Submerged Lands Act. |

Process Steps
Process Step 1
Description: |
1. Download source data that provide the component boundaries of the Abandoned Shipwreck Act. These include the US State Submerged Lands, Clean Water Act, and Coastal Zone Management Act. 2. Create a new feature class to copy features from the source data sets. 3. Using the US State Submerged Lands Act, copy all features into the new feature class. Using the Clean Water Act, extract the interior-most (3 mile) boundary for American Samoa, Guam, CNMI, and US Virgin Islands. 4. Using the Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA), extract the data for Puerto Rico. (This will require removing coincident data for USVI.) Erase the shoreline overlap of the CZMA data in Puerto Rico with a national shoreline boundary. Add the modified data for Puerto Rico to the national data set for the Abandoned Shipwreck Act. 5. Add fields and populated according to data dictionary. |
