NE Closed Areas

Information about the New England Closed Areas is available from http://www.nero.nmfs.gov/ro/doc/info.htm. Maps extracted from these documents are current as of 9/28/1998. However, these maps are a "simplified summary of the measures in effect under the Northeast Multispecies Fishery Management Plan. [These] summaries [have] no legal standing. You should also get a copy of the official rules as published in the Federal Register."
