GCA's are conservation areas created or modified and enforced to control catch of groundfish or protected species (50 CFR 660.11 “Conservation area(s)”. The following WCR groundfish conservation area types are included in this geodatabase: YRCA - Yelloweye Rockfish Conservation Areas GEA -Groundfish Exclusion Areas CCA - Cowcod Conservation Areas RCA - Rockfish Conservation Areas download dataset The Eastern Cowcod Conservation Area (CCA) spatial dataset was produced using Geographic Information System (GIS) software by plotting boundary coordinates published in the Code of Federal Regulations (50 CFR § 660.70(s)(3)). The boundary geometry was constructed by generating straight lines between the five mandated latitude and longitude coordinates in sequential order and closing back to the point of origin (32°42.00′ N, 118°02.00′ W).
