Publication Date: | 2024-07-01 |
Abstract: |
These data represent the critical habitat for hawksbill turtle as designated by Federal Register Vol. 63, No. 46693, September 2, 1998, Rules and Regulations.The purpose of these data is to visually represent the critical habitat areas for GIS analysis and display. |
Purpose: |
This spatial data file was modified from NMFS’s “agency-official” species critical habitat data to aid in the ESA/FIFRA section 7 pesticide consultation process. For example, existing data were adapted to incorporate associated watersheds where applicable, based on the USGS Watershed Boundary Dataset HUC-12 data (https://www.usgs.gov/national-hydrography/watershed-boundary-dataset). The modifications to the NMFS critical habitat spatial data make the data more compatible for future analyses with EPA’s Use Data Layers (UDLs). The following “Description” is from the original, “agency-official” data that was used to make this HUC-based map. Most of the metadata record for this species matches the “agency-official” record; however, NMFS added a new "Citation", "File Identifier", “Credits”, “Point of Contact”, and “Lineage Process Step” that are unique to this HUC-based critical habitat data. |

Process Steps
Process Step 1
Description: |
Detailed shoreline for Mona and Monito Islands from NOAA digital vector chart was created, then a 3 nautical mile buffer was generated using ESRI's ArcGIS software. |

Process Step 2
Description: |
As described above, this species’ HUC-based critical habitat dataset was modified from the polygon-based species “agency-official” NMFS critical habitat data. This HUC-based critical habitat file represents the HUC-12 watersheds (USGS Watershed Boundary Dataset; https://www.usgs.gov/national-hydrography/watershed-boundary-dataset) that intersect with the “agency-official” critical habitat polygon-based data. The data were reviewed and revised to add any additional HUC-12 watersheds that were determined to have hydrologic connectivity to the critical habitat. |
