This feature class resides within the SOCECON Feature Data Set of the Great Lakes Straits of Mackinac and the St. Clair Detroit River System 2019 ESI geodatabase. It contains vector polygons representing parks and managed areas resource data for the Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac study area. The study area includes the Straits of Mackinac, nearby portions of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, and adjacent lands and waters in northern Michigan. These data sets contain information about the following resources: POLYGONS - national forests, management areas, military installations, marine sanctuaries, nature conservancy lands, national parks, state and local parks, state protected areas, and wildlife refuges. Object specific Type and Source information are stored in the related data tables, SOC_DAT and SOURCES (described below). These are stand-alone tables within the Geodatabase, designed to be used in conjunction with these spatial data layers. This data set is a portion of the ESI data for Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac study area. 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 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 purposes, 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, check the sources listed in the Lineage section. Completeness Report These data represent a synthesis of multiple sources of data (e.g. expert knowledge, digital data, hardcopy documents and maps) specific to parks and managed area resources. For additional human-use information, see other feature class themes within the SOCECON Feature Data Set, including SOCECON, POLITICAL/JURISDICTIONAL, RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, NAVIGATION/MARINE and NATURAL HAZARD. These data do not necessarily represent all parks and managed areas found in the Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac region. 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 a several consistency checks, and processed into the final delivery format. Sources and Process Steps cited below in this metadata record include those used for two distinct areas of the Great Lakes: the Straits of Mackinac in northern Michigan, and the St. Clair / Detroit River System in southeastern Michigan. This is because these two study areas were initially combined into a single ArcGIS geodatabase, before being separated for publication. Some sources may pertain to both study areas, while others may pertain to one study area and not the other. As a final procedural step to prepare the geodatabases for publication, the spatial data data corresponding to each respective area were clipped in ArcGIS according to the two distinct geographic study areas. Information on Parks/Managed area features within the GL_Mackinac_StClair_Detroit_River 2019 ESI study region were acquired from multiple sources. Parks/Managed Area features represented as points and polylines include: habitat restoration management areas (MA). Features represented as polygons include: national forests (FO), management areas (MA), military installations (MI), marine sanctuaries (MS), nature conservancy lands (NC), national parks (NP), state and local parks (P), state protected areas (SPA), and wildlife refuges (WR). 2019-09-23T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor These data were developed as MANAGED_POINT, MANAGED_LINE, and MANAGED_POLYGON feature classes within the GL_Mackinac_StClair_Detroit_River 2019 ESI, following ESI Guidelines. Additional data are contained in the joined table SOC_DAT using HUNUM as a unique ID, and in SOURCES using SOURCE_ID as a unique ID. Depending on the type of source data, three general approaches are used for compiling the data layers: 1) information gathered during initial interviews and from hardcopy sources are compiled onto U.S. Geological Survey 1:50,000 topographic quadrangles and digitized; 2) hardcopy maps are digitized at their source scale; 3) digital data layers are evaluated and used "as is" or integrated with the hardcopy data sources. 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 MANAGED_POINT, MANAGED_LINE, or MANAGED_POLY data layers are made based on the recommendations of the resource experts, and final hardcopy maps and digital data are created. 2019-09-23T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor The main data source that was used to depict human-use resources for the MANAGED_LINE and MANAGED_POINT data layers was a personal interview with a resource expert from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). The expert provided us with digital vector polyline and point data depicting managed habitat restoration sites. 2019-09-23T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor The main data sources that were used to depict human-use resources for the MANAGED_POLY data layer were: 1) Great Lakes Aquatic Habitat Framework (GLAHF) 2) Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MIDNR) 3) NOAA Office of National Marine Sanctuaries 4) The Nature Conservancy (TNC) 5) U.S. Census Bureau (USCB) 5) U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service (USDA FS) 6) a personal interview with a resource expert from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) 7) U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the 8) National Park Service (NPS).
