Near the southern end of the critical habitat zone the navigation charts overlap. At this overlap, there are discrepancies between the charts; the critical habitat lines on the charts do not match. The finer scale navigation chart (11480A1) was given priority at this overlap, and the shapefile was edited to smooth the transition between the line discrepancies.
