These data represent critical habitat designated (March 23, 1979, 44 FR 17710) and revised (January 26, 2012, 77 FR 4170) under the Endangered Species Act for the leatherback sea turtle.Critical habitat in the Caribbean Sea area includes the waters adjacent to Sandy Point, St.

Critical habitat constitutes areas considered essential for the conservation of a listed species. These data identify, in general, the critical habitat units for the Northwest Atlantic Ocean Distinct Population Segment of Loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta), providing notice to the public and managers of the importance of the areas to the conservation of this species.The purpose of these data is to visually represent the critical habitat areas for GIS analysis and display.

Data is collected by observers on deck sheets and other types of paper forms and then the data is keyed into the ATLAS observer software.

Currently the ATLAS software consists of 3 parts: Oracle XE database, Oracle Apex, Oracle Rest Data Services (ORDS)

These data represent the critical habitat for smalltooth sawfish (Pristis pectinata) as designated by 74 FR 45353, September 2, 2009, Rules and Regulations.The purpose of these data is to visually represent the critical habitat areas for GIS analysis and display.

These data represent critical habitat designated (September 2, 2005, 70 FR 52488) under the Endangered Species Act for the California Central Valley steelhead DPS.Critical habitat includes the stream channels within the designated stream reaches, and includes a lateral extent as defined by the ordinary high-water line (33 CFR 329.11). In areas where the ordinary high-water line has not been defined, the lateral extent will be defined by the bankfull elevation.
