Boaters may not discharge waste into these areas. Boundaries were determined mostly by Federal Register Environmental Documents in coordination with Massachusetts Coastal Zone Management (MA CZM) and EPA Region 1 Office of Ecosystem Protection (OEP) staff. Dataset is being developed for a region wide initiative to enforce the no discharge of waste into coastal waters and also to assess how much of the existing coastline is designated as a "no discharge" zone.

It is also limited to how accurate the Tele Atlas municipal boundary data is as well; this dataset was used to "anchor" or "tie" the NDA polygons to the New England coastline. false Updates: December 2019: Added areas to the existing Buzzards Bay No-Discharge Zone to include 'all waters of Buzzards Bay', as indicated in the Federal Register. With technical assistance from Federal Register Environmental Documents, MA CZM, and EPA Region 1 OEP staff, GIS staff created a point event theme of latitude/longitude data to outline the basic NDA boundaries. The majoirity of these points were from Federal Register applications. Based on guidance from these documents, boundaries were drawn from each specific latitude/longitude point to create NDA polygons. Numerous polygons were digitized at the smallest scale possible to ensure the most accurate NDA boundary. In addition, polygons were digitized and appended to the municipal dataset developed by Tele Atlas. This was to ensure that coastal NDA boundaries matched exactly to the New England coastline. Where necessary, polygons were either merged or dissolved into a single, contiguous NDA boundary. Attributes detailing the state, NDA name, square miles, and acres were managed and updated throughout the editing process. 2004-04-01T00:00:00 Dataset undergoing constant edits to ensure that NDA boundaries are accurate in order to correctly asertain square mileage and acreage figures. 2008-07-01T00:00:00 Documenting/Updating metadata 2008-07-17T00:00:00 20080717 Documenting/Updating metadata 2009-03-24T00:00:00 Updating metadata to publish on GDG 2010-06-16T00:00:00 Data updated (coastal boundaries to NAVTEQ/Census.

The USGS National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) Downloadable Data Collection from The National Map (TNM) is a comprehensive set of digital spatial data that encodes information about naturally occurring and constructed bodies of surface water (lakes, ponds, and reservoirs), paths through which water flows (canals, ditches, streams, and rivers), and related entities such as point features (springs, wells, stream gages, and dams). The information encoded about these features includes classification and other characteristics, delineation, geographic name, position and related measures, a "reach code" through which other information can be related to the NHD, and the direction of water flow. The network of reach codes delineating water and transported material flow allows users to trace movement in upstream and downstream directions. In addition to this geographic information, the dataset contains metadata that supports the exchange of future updates and improvements to the data. The NHD supports many applications, such as making maps, geocoding observations, flow modeling, data maintenance, and stewardship. For additional information on NHD, go to https://nhd.usgs.gov/.
