Description: This dataset includes boundaries generated and maintained by the GSD (Submerged Lands Act Boundary, Limit of “8(g) Zone” Boundary, Oil and Gas Planning Area Boundary, Continental Shelf Boundary, Limit of Protraction, and State Lateral Boundary) in addition to boundaries generated and maintained by other federal agencies (Exclusive Economic Zone Limit, International Boundary, Marine/Wildlife Sanctuary, Maritime Boundary, and Parks/Monuments). All boundary line segments across all BOEM regions with the same boundary name have been merged to a display a single boundary line. Offshore boundaries are depicted on Official Protraction Diagrams (OPDs), Supplemental Official Block Diagrams (SOBDs), and other BOEM cadastral maps. The maps can be located by going to Offshore Marine Cadastre Navigator and select the Offshore Boundary Lines (BOEM) to launch the pop-up window for viewing the boundary’s type and name.
