Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Over the past several years, the department has undergone an extensive effort to correct and provide for accurate descriptions of commercial salmon fishing districts, sections, statistical areas, and closed waters. District and section layers are delineated based on Alaska Fish and Game Regulations as described in 5 AAC 33.200. Statistical areas are not defined in regulation, but internally defined within ADF&amp;G. Statistical areas included are used for salmon, shellfish, and miscellaneous shellfish fisheries for reporting harvest within Southeast Alaska.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Statistical areas are polygons that divide the waters of the State of Alaska and the adjacent Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) into small units for the purpose of reporting and analyzing fishery harvest. Each statistical area is identified by a unique 5-digit number. Salmon statistical areas can be divided by lines defined in ADF&amp;G regulations, and further subdivided based on prominent landmarks or points of land. The statistical areas represented were delineated based on Southeast Alaska salmon manager descriptions as detailed in the internal document "Region 1 Salmon, Shellfish, and Miscellaneous Shellfish Statistical Areas" finalized in 2024. King and Tanner crab outside waters statistical areas use offshore groundfish statistical areas.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Each statistical area has a geometry start date attribute which ranges in this dataset for Southeast Alaska from 1963 to 2023. Over the years, there have been changes to statistical area shapes , codes, and names. If a statistical area is not included in this file, it may have been used historically and exist in another GIS file version. </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="text-decoration:underline;">Please note spring troll statistical areas DO NOT use these statistical areas for recording harvest, but are separately defined each spring in an ADF&amp;G Advisory Announcement. </SPAN><SPAN>Please contact the Troll Fishery Biologists for additional info on spring troll statistical areas.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Latitude and longitude values shown are provided in a number of formats, including decimal minutes (DDM) and decimal degrees (DD). All coordinates should be referenced using the WGS 84 datum.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>This data set should NOT be used for navigation or for determining compliance with ADF&amp;G Commercial Fishing Regulations. Please consult the ADF&amp;G Salmon Commercial Fisheries Regulations for the official definitions of regulatory boundaries. NOTE: These data attempt to depict boundaries as used for management during a specific time period. In some cases, boundaries used in practice may differ from those described in regulations, reports, maps, and other aids. If you need to compare to current statistical areas, you will need to refer to other versions of the salmon statistical areas and/or published charts.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN> Data last updated December 2023</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
