Attributes were added to the spatial data file in order to provide the user with not only the the statutory and regulatory references for this law, but also the name and contact information of the state agency with regulatory jurisdiction. The ability to visualize regulations, laws, or management structures can help policy makers understand use conflicts, point out inconsistencies in national or state policy, and educate the public about ocean issues. In addition, georegulations allow the user to view the spatial extent of these laws, along with natural resources that many of these laws seek to protect.

LOGICAL CONSISTENCY REPORT: Data are believed to be logically consistent, although not tested. Geometry appears to be topologically clean. COMPLETENESS REPORT: This a statewide data layer and is believed to depict the locations of all designated barrier beaches within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. HORIZONTAL POSITIONAL ACCURACY REPORT: The accuracy of these data is based on source data that are assumed to meet National Map Accuracy Standards. PROCESS DESCRIPTION: The Marine Fisheries data layer was created using the MA coastal zone as a template. The MA coastal zone data layer was used to depict the landward boundary for this law, as well as the ateral boundaries with New Hampshire and Rhode Island. However, the MMS state seward boundary was appended to the existing coastal zone boundary. Attributes were added to reflect the information relevant to this law.
