Description: Provides a geographic definition of Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife's "Aquaculture Districts" described in Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 220-22-510. These districts are used by commercial aquatic species farmers, mostly of geoduck in marine areas. Although the WAC describes freshwater areas, this GIS layer depicts only marine areas and their boundaries.http://apps.leg.wa.gov/WAC/default.aspx?cite=220-22-510WAC 220-22-510Aquaculture districts. (1) Area 41A shall include all waters of Budd Inlet south of a line between Dofflemeyer Point to Cooper Point.(2) Area 41B shall include all waters of Carr Inlet north and west of a line between Gibson Point on Fox Island and Hyde Point on McNeil Island and a line crossing Pitt Passage southwest from Signal Tower No. 5, and all waters of Hale Passage west of a line from Point Fosdick and Fox Point on Fox Island.???? - Signal Tower No. 5 apparently no longer exists as shown on NOAA Chart 18448 (in the middle of Pitt I.). DOE shoreline oblique imagery shows what could be the remains a base structure in the intertidal zone of SE Pitt Island.???? - Ambiguous "SW from ST#5" could draw a line along the passage, not across it. Could be an E-W line drawn through the middle of Pitt I, and that’s how it’s mapped.(3) Area 41C shall include all waters of Case Inlet between Harstene Island and the Longbranch Peninsula between an east-west line from the extreme north shore of Herron Island, and an east-west line from Johnson Point.???? - Charts refer to "Key Peninsula", though it’s known colloquially as "Longbranch Peninsula". The town of Longbranch is located there.(4) Area 41D shall include all waters of Case Inlet north of Area 41C and west of a line running north from Dougall Point.???? - East of a line running north from Dougall Point, not west.(5) Area 41E shall include all waters of Eld Inlet south of a line across the entrance of Eld Inlet projected from Dofflemeyer Point through Cooper Point.(6) Area 41F shall include all waters surrounding Anderson Island south of Area 41B and 41C and a southwesterly line from Gibson Point on Fox Island to Sunset Beach.???? - Southeasterly line running from Gibson Point on Fox Island to Sunset Beach, not southwesterly. Actually, it's more easterly than south.???? - Sunset Beach is a line. It would be good to specify a point there, or a true heading from Gibson. This map shows it intersecting at 47°13'4"N, 122°34'22"W (the closest point).(7) Area 41G shall include all waters of Hammersley Inlet and Oakland Bay west of a line between Hungerford Point and Arcadia and the entrance of Hammersley Inlet.???? - "and the entrance of Hammersley Inlet" is confusing/redundant, as if there’s a third point to draw to.(8) Area 41H shall include all waters of Totten and Skookum Inlets southwest of a line from Arcadia to Hunter Point.???? - FYI, this line crosses Hope I. Not that this is a problem, but should it be mentioned?(9) Area 41J shall include all waters of Pickering Passage and Peale Passage bounded by Areas 41A, 41C, 41H, 41G, 41D, and a line running south from Brisco Point on Harstene Island.(10) Area 41K shall include all waters of Henderson Inlet and Dana Passage east of Area 41J and south of Area 41C.(11) Area 41L shall include all waters of The Narrows, Dalco Passage, and Commencement Bay north and west of Areas 41F and 41B and south of a line from the Gig Harbor entrance marker to Neill Point on Vashon Island to Browns Point.(12) Area 41M shall include all waters of East Passage north and east of Area 41L and south of a line from Point Vashon to Brace Point.(13) Area 41N shall include all waters of Colvos Passage north of Area 41L and south of a line from Point Southworth to Point Vashon.(14) Area 42A shall include all waters of Dyes Inlet, the Washington Narrows, and Sinclair Inlet west of a southeast line from the north shore of the Washington Narrows entrance.???? - Charts refer to "Port of Washington Narrows".???? - How about "west of a line drawn southeast from Pt. Herron"? It's less ambiguous.(15) Area 42B shall include all waters of Discovery Bay south of a line between Diamond Point and Cape George.(16) Area 42C shall include all waters of all waters of Hood Canal south of the Hood Canal Floating Bridge and north of a line between Quatsap Point and the entrance of Stavis Bay.???? - The map appears to go to the southern shore of the entrance to Stavis Bay. This could be more clearly defined.(17) Area 42D shall include all waters of Hood Canal south of Area 42C and north of a line between Lilliwaup Creek and the south entrance of Dewatto Bay.(18) Area 42E shall include all waters of Hood Canal south of Area 42D.(19) Area 42F shall include all waters of Oak Bay west of a line from Liplip Point on Marrowstone Island to Olele Point and east of the bridge connecting Indian Island and the mainland.(20) Area 42G shall include all waters near Port Angeles south of a line between Angeles Point and the northern extremity of Dungeness Spit.(21) Area 42H shall include all waters north of the Hood Canal Bridge and south of a line between Olele Point and Foulweather Bluff.(22) Area 42J shall include all waters of Port Madison east of the Agate Pass Bridge and west of a line between Point Jefferson and Skiff Point on Bainbridge Island.(23) Area 42K shall include all waters of Port Orchard south of an east-west line at Battle Point on Bainbridge Island, west of a line projected from Restoration Point on Bainbridge Island through the westernmost portion of Blake Island to the Mainland in Yukon Harbor, excluding Area 42A.(24) Area 42L shall include all waters of Port Townsend and Kilisut Harbor bounded by the Indian Island Bridge and a line from Marrowstone Point to Point Wilson.(25) Area 42M shall include all waters of Liberty Bay and those contiguous waters north of Area 42K and south of Area 42J.(26) Area 42N shall include all waters of Admiralty Inlet and Puget Sound north of Areas 41N and 41M, east of 42K and 42J, east of Areas 42H, 42F and 42L, south of a line between Point Wilson and Admiralty Head, and west of a line between Possession Point and Picnic Point.(27) Area 42P shall include all waters of Sequim Bay.???? - Define Sequim Bay: "... waters south of a line from the southwestern tip of Gibson Point to the westernmost end of Travis Spit."???? - Alternatively, a line due N-S at longitude 122°02'29"W.(28) Area 42R shall include all waters south of a line between the northern extremity of Dungeness Spit and Point Wilson, excluding Areas 42B and 42P.(29) Area 43A shall include all waters of Padilla Bay west of the line from Shannon Point and the closest portion of Guemes Island, and south of a line between Clark Point on Guemes Island and William Point on Samish Island.???? - The southern boundary (in the Swinomish Channel) should be mentioned. It later is, for 43H (as the La Conner Bridge).(30) Area 43B shall include all waters of Lummi Bay and Bellingham Bay east of the line between Sandy Point and Point Migley on Lummi Island, northeast of the line between William Point on Samish Island and Governors Point.???? - This definition misses the closure line Carter Pt. (S. tip of Lummi I.) - William Pt. (the boundary to 43J). In fact, it's not mentioned in this WAC at all, but it appears on the old printed map.???? - It could conveniently match WAC 220-22-030 if the point of convergence were the southwestern tip of Sandy Point.(31) Area 43C shall include all waters of Boundary Bay and Crayton Harbor northeast of the line between Point Roberts and Birch Point, and south of the international border.???? - That's Drayton Harbor, not Crayton.(32) Area 43D shall include all waters of Possession Sound east of Area 42N, and south of a line from Sandy Point on Whidbey Island, to Camano Head, then to south entrance of Tulalip Bay.(33) Area 43E shall include all waters of Port Susan north of Area 43D.???? - No northern boundary is given. I'm assuming it's the Route 532 bridge that connects Camano to the mainland.(34) Area 43F shall include all waters of Samish Bay southwest of Area 43B.???? - "...southeast of Area 43B", not southwest.(35) Area 43G shall include all waters of Saratoga Passage between a line from Sandy Point on Whidbey Island and Camano Head, and a line from Polnell Point on Whidbey Island to Rocky Point on Camano Island.???? - "...a line from Sandy Point on Whidbey Island to Camano Head”, not on.(36) Area 43H shall include all waters of Skagit Bay and Similk Bay north of Area 43G, south of the La Conner Bridge, and east of the Deception Pass Bridge.(37) Area 43J shall include all United States waters of the Strait of Georgia, the United States waters surrounding the San Juan Islands, and the United States waters of the Strait of Juan de Fuca east of Angeles Point.???? - "...east of a line projected due north from Point Angeles."(38) Area 43K shall include all United States waters of the Strait of Juan de Fuca west of Angeles Point and east of a line between Tatoosh Island and Bonilla Point.???? - No connection is made between Tatoosh I. and Cape Flattery. Perhaps verbiage from WAC 220-22-400, "a line projected from the Bonilla Point light on Vancouver Island to the Tatoosh Island light, then to the most westerly point of Cape Flattery."???? - The old Aquaculture map I have shows this area named as "42S".???? - "...west of a line projected due north from Point Angeles..."(39) Area 44A shall include all waters of Grays Harbor north of the marked Chehalis River Channel and west of a line between Point Chehalis and the southwestern most point of the Ocean Shores Peninsula.???? - "...and east of a line between Point Chehalis...", not "west" of that line.???? - The N-S closure line is not very good anyway. Five other WACs use the line "projected from the outermost end of the north jetty to the outermost end of the south jetty." It would be nice to have consistency and use that here, too.(40) Area 44B shall include all waters of Grays Harbor south of the marked Chehalis River Channel and west of a line between Point Chehalis and the southwestern most point of the Ocean Shores Peninsula.???? - "...and east of a line between Point Chehalis...", not west of that line. This N-S closure line is not very good anyway. Suggestion: five other WACs use the line "projected from the outermost end of the north jetty to the outermost end of the south jetty."???? - There is no eastern closure. An obvious choice would be the SR 101 bridge.(41) Area 45A shall include all waters of Willapa Bay north of the Willapa River Channel and west of the North River Channel.???? - "...and east of the ...", not west.???? - could use a definition for the upper extent into the Willapa River. WAC 220-22-020 uses, “westerly of a line projected 235 degrees true from the north shore of the Willapa River through Willapa River light number 33 to the south shore”.(42) Area 45B shall include all waters of Willapa Bay north of the Willapa River Channel, west of the North River Channel and west of a line between Cape Shoalwater and Leadbetter Point.???? - "...and east of a line ...", not west of Leadbetter.???? - The new map shows the line used in several other WACs, basically from the northernmost tip of Leadbetter Point to the (former) Shoalwater Light, (gone) then to shore. We also have the boundary defined in WAC 220-16-220 (defining Willapa Bay), but that goes far into the ocean.(43) Area 45C shall include all waters of Willapa Bay south of the Willapa River Channel and east of Stoney Point.???? - could use a definition for the upper extent into the Willapa River. WAC 220-22-020 uses, “westerly of a line projected 235 degrees true from the north shore of the Willapa River through Willapa River light number 33 to the south shore”.(44) Area 45D shall include all waters of Willapa Bay south of the Willapa River Channel, west of Stoney Point, east of the Nahcotta Channel, and north and east of a line running north from Goose Point to the middle of the Bay Center Channel and then westerly following the Bay Center Channel to the Nahcotta Channel.(45) Area 45E shall include all waters of Willapa Bay east of the Nahcotta Channel, south of Area 45D, and north of a line projected west from Sandy Point.(46) Area 45F shall include all waters of Willapa Bay east of the Nahcotta Channel, south of Area 45E, and northeast of a line following the Nemah River Channel to channel marker "4" then west of the Nahcotta Channel.???? - Channel Marker 4 no longer exists. Bruce Kauffman found a location from an old chart: 123°56.835'W, 46°32.894'N.???? - "...then west to the Nahcotta…", not of.(47) Area 45G shall include all waters of Willapa Bay west of Diamond Point, southwest of the Nahcotta Channel, south of Area 45F, and north of a line between Paradise Point on Long Island and Sunshine Point.???? - "...all waters of Willapa Bay east of Diamond Point, southeast of the Nahcotta Channel...", not west and southwest.(48) Area 45H shall include all waters of Willapa Bay south of Area 45G and north and west of the ferry crossing to Long Island.???? - Could use an upper extent on the Naselle River: SR 101 bridge?(49) Area 45J shall include all waters of Willapa Bay west of the Long Island ferry crossing and south of High Point.(50) Area 45K shall include all waters of Willapa Bay north of High Point, east of the Nahcotta Channel, and south of the line between Diamond Point and the Nahcotta Boat Basin.(51) Area 45L shall include all waters of Willapa Bay north of High Point, west of the Nahcotta Channel and south of the line between Diamond Point and the Nahcotta Boat Basin.(52) Area 45M shall include all waters of Willapa Bay east of the line between Cape Shoalwater and Leadbetter Point, south of Area 45B, west of Areas 45D, 45E, and 45F, and north of latitude 46 degrees, 35 minutes north.(53) Area 45N shall include all waters of Willapa Bay south of Area 45M, east of Areas 45F and 45G, and north of Areas 45K and 45L.???? - "...west of Areas 45F..." not east of Areas ...???? - Note: I did not map any of the following areas - they're just freshwater by county.(54) Area 47A shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Clallam County.(55) Area 47B shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Clark County.(56) Area 47C shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Cowlitz County.(57) Area 47D shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Grays Harbor County.(58) Area 47E shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Island County.(59) Area 47F shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Jefferson County.(60) Area 47G shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in King County.(61) Area 47H shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Kitsap County.(62) Area 47J shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Lewis County.(63) Area 47K shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Mason County.(64) Area 47L shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Pacific County.(65) Area 47M shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Pierce County.(66) Area 47N shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in San Juan County.(67) Area 47O shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Skagit County.(68) Area 47P shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Skamania County.(69) Area 47Q shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Snohomish County.(70) Area 47R shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Thurston County.(71) Area 47S shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Wahkiakum County.(72) Area 47T shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Whatcom County.(73) Area 48A shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Adams County.(74) Area 48B shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Asotin County.(75) Area 48C shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Benton County.(76) Area 48D shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Chelan County.(77) Area 48E shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Columbia County.(78) Area 48F shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Douglas County.(79) Area 48G shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Ferry County.(80) Area 48H shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Franklin County.(81) Area 48J shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Garfield County.(82) Area 48K shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Grant County.(83) Area 48L shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Kittitas County.(84) Area 48M shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Klickitat County.(85) Area 48N shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Lincoln County.(86) Area 48O shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Okanogan County.(87) Area 48P shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Pend Oreille County.(88) Area 48Q shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Spokane County.(89) Area 48R shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Stevens County.(90) Area 48S shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Walla Walla County.(91) Area 48T shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Whitman County.(92) Area 48U shall include all freshwater streams, ponds or lakes in Yakima County.[Statutory Authority: RCW 75.08.080 and 75.58.040. 86-19-043 (Order 86-102), § 220-22-510, filed 9/12/86.]
