Polygons in the SOCECON feature data set may overlap where an area is associated with more than one agency or feature type. As an example, multiple parks may fall within a county boundary, which may itself fall within a larger polygon depicting the jurisdiction of an Army Corps of Engineers region. As a whole, the ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil, and include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. The entirety of the NY/NJ Metro Area, Hudson River, and South Long Island Human-Use data layers consists of: PARKS-MANAGED AREAS Polygons, Points; NAVIGATION-MARINE Points, Lines; POLITICAL-JURISDICTIONAL Polygons, Points; RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Polygons, Points; SOCECON Polygons, Points, Lines; and NATURAL HAZARD Polygons. The ESI data are intended to provide baseline environmental data for oil spill planning and response. The Clean Water Act with amendments by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires response plans for immediate and effective protection of sensitive resources. The ESI data may be appropriate for many other coastal management efforts, though the original intent should be kept in mind. This project was supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service (NOS), Office of Response and Restoration (OR&R), Emergency Response Division (ERD), Seattle, Washington. completed ESI Program Manager 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 orr.esi@noaa.gov pointOfContact ESI Program Manager 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 orr.esi@noaa.gov custodian asNeeded Data content is considered static once published.

The process includes a standardized data entry methodology, data review by in-house and external resource experts, a final Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) process, and multiple automated logical consistency checks. Quantitative data (such as densities, counts, abundances, or concentrations) provided by resource experts for inclusion in the data set may vary widely in attribute accuracy, depending upon the methodology used to collect and compile such data. For a more detailed evaluation of source data attribute accuracy, contact the sources listed in the Lineage section. Horizontal Positional Accuracy Spatial components for the human-use data layers can come from expert interviews and digital sources. Most of the spatial components of the human-use data layers are developed from pre-existing digital sources and reflect the positional accuracy of these original data. Some of the spatial components of the human-use data layers are compiled on digital base maps with a scale of 1:24,000 or larger. See the Lineage and Process_Description sections for more information on the original source data and how these data were integrated or manipulated to create the final data set. Completeness Report These data represent a synthesis of expert knowledge and available hardcopy reports and digital data for human-use or management features. It contains vector polygons depicting locations of aquacultures, essential habitats, and water intakes; and vector points representing aquacultures, artificial reefs, recreational fishing, repeated measurement sites, and water intakes in the New York/New Jersey Metro Area, Hudson River, and South Long Island regions. These should not be considered "legal boundaries" and they do not necessarily represent all managed areas in the NY/NJ Metro Area, Hudson River, and South Long Island region. For additional human-use information, see other feature class themes within the SOCECON Directory, including PARKS/MANAGED AREAS (POLYGONS), NAVIGATION/MARINE (POINTS and LINES), POLITICAL/JURISDICTIONAL (POLYGONS and POINTS), RESOURCE MANAGEMENT (POLYGONS and POINTS), SOCEON (POLYGONS, LINES and POINTS), and NAT_HAZARD (POLYGONS) data layers for additional human-use information. Conceptual Consistency A multi-stage error checking process, described in the above Attribute Accuracy Report, is used to verify both attribute accuracy and logical consistency throughout data production. This process includes multiple automated logical consistency checks that test the files for missing or duplicate data, rules for proper coding, GIS topological consistencies, and SQL SERVER(R) to ArcGIS(R) consistencies. A final review is made by the GIS manager, before the final Geodatabase and metadata are created. After the data are delivered to NOAA, they are again subjected to several consistency checks, and processed into the final delivery format. The following describes the process used to map all human use data layers found within the SOCECON feature data set. The mapping extent was dependent upon information availability and location of mapped coastal habitats and shorelines. Sources of data used to depict human-use resources in this data layer include publically-available digital data sets supplemented with expert knowledge. Aquaculture locations were provided by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) and New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP). The United States Army Corps of Engineers provided data for their jurisdictional boundaries. United States Coast Guard (USCG) jurisdictional boundaries were acquired from the USCG Operation Systems Center. County jurisdictional boundaries were acquired from the New York State Geographic Information System Program (NYSGIS) Office and the New Jersey Office of Information Technology (NJOIT). Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region data came from the EPA. Essential Habitat for fish was provided by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Marine Fisheries Service Mid-Atlantic Essential Fish Habitat and New England Essential Fish Habitat. Audubon New York and New Jersey Audubon provided Important Bird Areas data. Multi-species essential habitat in New York was mapped using New York State Department of State's Significant Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat data. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Regions were acquired by the FEMA Enterprise GIS Services. State managed shellfish areas were obtained from NJDEP and SeaPlan (Northeast Ocean Data). Historical sites came from the National Park Service (NPS), NJDEP, NJDOS, New York State Office of Cyber Security (NYSOCS), and New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation (NYSOPRHP). Military jurisdictional boundaries that fall under the responsibility of the Department of Defense came from the United States Census Bureau (Census Bureau), National Atlas, NJDEP, NYSOCS, and NOAA.s Office for Coastal Management. National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR) boundary data for the Hudson River were provided by the NERR System. National Guard locations were mapped with data from the Census Bureau and the NYSOCS. Fire Island National Seashore and Gateway National Recreation Area were mapped using NPS data. The Nature Conservancy (TNC) properties and easements were provided by TNC. State boundaries were provided by NYSGIS and NJOIT. State park data were provided by NYSOCS and NYSOPRHP, USGS Protected Areas Database, and NOAA.s Office of National Marine Protected Areas Center. The Poospatuck and Shinnecock Reservations were mapped using Census Bureau data. Water Intake locations provided by NJDEP were offset and buffered as requested by New Jersey. United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) National Wildlife Refuge data were provided by the USFWS. 2015-11-01T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor All polygons were edited to reflect the updated ESI shoreline. The above digital and/or hardcopy sources were compiled by the project biologist to create the data layers in the SOCECON feature dataset. Depending on the type of source data, two general approaches are used for compiling the data layer: 1) digital data layers are evaluated and used "as is" or integrated with the ESI base map features (ESIP, HYDROP, ESIL) 2) information gathered during initial interviews and from hardcopy sources are compiled and digitized using ESI base map features. See the Lineage section for additional information on the type of source data for this data layer. See the Lineage section for additional information on the type of source data for this data layer. The ESI, biology, and human-use data are compiled into the standard ESI digital data format. A second set of interviews with participating resource experts are conducted to review the compiled data. If necessary, edits to the data layer within the SOCECON feature dataset were made based on the recommendations of the resource experts, and final hardcopy maps and digital data are created. 2015-11-01T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor 2014 EAST COAST SHELLFISH HATCHERY AND NURSERY LIST 2014-01-01 publication RUTGERS NEW JERSEY AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION HTTP://WWW.ECSGA.ORG/PAGES/RESOURCES/EASTCOASTHATCHERYNURSERYLIST.PDF WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information 2014 AQUACULTURE SITES 2015-01-01 publication NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION 80000 ARTIFICIAL REEFS FOR US WATERS AS OF FEBRUARY 2014 2014-01-01 publication DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION, NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE, COASTAL SERVICES CENTER http://MARINECADASTRE.GOV/DATA/ WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information publisher 2014 ATLANTIC FISHING AND CAUTION POINTS 2013-01-01 publication DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE (DOC), NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION (NOAA), NATIONAL OCEAN SERVICE (NOS), COASTAL SERVICES CENTER (CSC), BOEM http://MARINECADASTRE.GOV/DATA/ WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information publisher 2014 BARNEGAT BAY (UPPER) HARD CLAM DISTRIBUTION 2012-01-01 publication NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION, BUREAU OF SHELLFISHERIES HTTP://WWW.STATE.NJ.US/DEP/LANDUSE/SHELLFISH.HTML WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information 2012 24000 DLF.DECLANDS 2008-01-01 publication NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION http://GIS.NY.GOV/GISDATA/INVENTORIES/DETAILS.CFM?DSID=1114 WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information publisher 2012 EFH OVERLAY FOR MULTIPLE SPECIES -
