Bristol Bay, Alaska Subarea ESI: SOCECON (Socioeconomic Resource Points and Lines)

Description

This data set contains human-use resource data for airport locations, Coastal Resource Service Area (CSRA) boundaries, and scenic rivers for the Bristol Bay Subarea. The Subarea includes marine and coastal areas of Bristol Bay and part of the southern Alaska Peninsula. (This area extends from directly south of Goodnews Bay to slightly north of Port Seniavan along the Bristol Bay side of the Alaska Peninsula, as well as the Pacific Ocean side of the Alaska Peninsula from Cape Providence to Kupreanof Peninsula.) Vector points in this data set represent the airport locations; vector lines represent the area boundaries and scenic rivers. Location-specific type and source information are stored in relational data tables (described below) designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer.This data set comprises a portion of the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) data for the Bristol Bay Subarea. ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. See also the MGT (Management Area Polygons) data layer, part of the larger Bristol Bay Subarea ESI database, for additional human-use information.
