NOAA NMSP Statement: Users must assume responsibility to determine the appropriate use of the data. The boundaries are not to be used as LEGAL definitions. The boundaries are created with the most recent and accurate boundary information available, but the edges and/or borders of the boundaries may change due to the natural land changes, site boundary modification or higher resolution maps. Therefore, the currency or accuracy of the boundaries cannot be guaranteed. |
