No. 110599D][A] john_sgrass_CH_alb_po\\SERO-NOVELL-4\DATA1\GIS\ESRI CATALOG\ARCDATA\PRODUCTS\Distribution\john_sgrass_CH_FL_2003_poCopy These data represent the critical habitat for Johnson's Seagrass as designated by Federal Register Vol. 65, No. 66, Wednesday, April 5, 2000, Rules and Regulations. The purpose of these data is to visually represent the critical habitat areas for GIS analysis and display. In addition to the coordinates provided in the Federal Register document, the following data were used to assist in the production of this dataset: US Army Corps of Engineers - IWW_IR to DA.dgn (Microstation Design File depicting the Intracoastal Waterway), Miami Harbor 83-90.dgn (Microstation Design File depicting the federally authourized navigation channels in Miami Harbor; According to the USACE, these channels are likely to be updated in the near future). St. John's River Water Management District - cb24_det.e00 (ArcInfo Interchange format file, converted to an ArcInfo Coverage depicting a detailed shoreline, last update 12/10/99.) en 20031114 Version used of USACE design files and SJRWMD shoreline file Complete As needed -80.578237 -79.972834 27.854633 25.745351 543841.143775592328.274332318756.519204550525.699599 None Johnson's Seagrass Critical Habitat GIS Seagrass None Florida Atlantic Ocean Sebastian Inlet Fort Pierce Inlet Indian River Lagoon St. Lucie Inlet Hobe Sound Jupiter Inlet Lake Worth Lake Worth Lagoon Lake Wyman Biscayne Bay None Due to the collection of data used in this analysis from multiple data sources, some instances occur where the USACE ICW file intersects areas of the SJRWMD file classified as "Land", particularly in the vicinity of Hobe Sound. Clearly this is not the real world situation and efforts will be made to resolve these conflicts in the data. At this time, these were the best data available. The text description in 50 CFR Part 226 is always the one, true definition of Johnson's seagrass critical habitat. These or any other depictions are for information purposes only and shouldn't be relied on for regulatory purposes.

Those points were then used to digitize polygons. The polygons were then "clipped" to a detailed shoreline (cb24_det.e00) obtained from St. John's River Water Management District (SJRWMD). Following the clip operation, microstation design files of the ICW and Miami Harbor navigation channels were obtained from the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and converted to shapefiles. The final ICW shapefile was created by using a 62.5ft buffer on either side of the centerline and editing that buffer file to match the widening areas in the vicinity of the critical habitat areas. The final Miami Harbor shapefile was created by digitizing a polygon over the channel edge line work in the design file. An Edit Clip was then performed to "punch a hole" through the Critical Habitat areas where they intersected the ICW and the Miami Harbor navigation channel, thus excluding the federally authorized navigation channels from the Critical Habitat areas. Finally, the data in the vicinity of Miami Harbor in Biscayne Bay were edited visually to correspond to the paper maps in the federal register document. Additionally, all data used were reprojected to match the detailed shoreline.
