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 2026-06-23T00:00:00 ESRI File Geodatabase Zip Microsoft Windows 10 Version 10.0 (Build 19045) ; Esri ArcGIS 13.3.0.52636 The Stonewall Bank YRCA 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(i); available at https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-50/chapter-VI/part-660/subpart-C/section-660.70). The boundary geometry was constructed by generating straight lines between the mandated latitude and longitude coordinates in sequential order and closing back to the point of origin (44°37.46′ N lat.; 124°24.92′ W long.). 74260 Entity gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:74184 Stephani Onisko 2024-12-18T22:09:17 Stephani Onisko 2026-08-05T16:33:22 2024-12-26 West Coast Regional Office WCRO 501 West Ocean Blvd Long Beach CA 90802-4213 https://www.westcoast.fisheries.noaa.gov/ 1001 Public No No 2024-12-26 1 Year 2025-12-26
