North Slope, Alaska ESI: MGT (Management Area Polygons)

Description

This data set contains the boundaries of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Designated Critical Habitats and National Wildlife Refuges and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) properties for the North Slope of Alaska. Vector polygons in this data set represent the management areas. Location-specific type and source information is 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 North Slope, Alaska. 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 SOCECON (Socioeconomic Resource Points and Lines) data layer, part of the larger North Slope, Alaska ESI database, for additional human-use information.
