Description:

Abstract:

This layer contains those lakes within Pennsylvania that have specifc special regulations related to boating as defined by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission.

Purpose:

Mapping of areas with special boating regulations and to inform the boating public of the restrictions.

Supplemental_Information:

This layer was created by selecting the appropriate lakes based on the regulation definitions from the 1:24000 National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) water bodies layer and copying them into a new layer.
