Description: The <a href= "https://www.greateratlantic.fisheries.noaa.gov/protected/section7/" target="_blank">NOAA Greater Atlantic Regional Fisheries Office (GARFO) Section 7 Program</a> created the Section 7 Consultation Area species’ distribution layers (life stages and behaviors) using the best available scientific and commercial information (peer-reviewed journals, sightings data, trawling data, and personal communication with species experts). Critical habitat layers are based upon regulatory boundaries.
There are five feature datasets within the geodatabase and each dataset is specific to the animals that we protect under the Endangered Species Act. The feature datasets are Atlantic Large Whales, Atlantic Salmon, Atlantic Sturgeon, Sea Turtles, and Shortnose Sturgeon. The Atlantic Large Whales, Atlantic Salmon and Sea Turtles datasets include individual feature classes for each species within that taxa covered by GARFO under the ESA. The Atlantic Large Whales dataset, includes the extent of the Blue, Fin, North Atlantic right, Sei, and Sperm whale species, the Atlantic Salmon dataset simply covers Atlantic salmon, and the Sea Turtles dataset has individual layers for Green, Kemp’s ridley, Leatherback, and Loggerhead sea turtles. The Atlantic and Shortnose Sturgeon datasets contain individual feature classes for each waterbody where the species is present. The Atlantic and Shortnose datasets are more detailed because we have more data to differentiate the distribution of life stages and behaviors of these species in each body of water. By contrast, the data we have available for large whales, salmon, and sea turtles do not allow us to capture variable behavior patterns at the same spatial scale. In addition to showing the extent of each species, the Consultation Areas contain information on the various species’ life stages, behaviors, and the times of year when they are active within a specific location.
