FWS National Regional Boundaries

<p>This data set delineates the boundaries of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service geographic Regions. &nbsp;The dataset was created as a geographic representation of the Regional administrative boundaries of the US Fish and Wildlife Service at a very coarse scale. &nbsp;The boundaries were created using the ArcGIS shoreline dataset from approximately 1995. &nbsp;This dataset should not be used for legal purposes or at small scales and does not accurately denote the shorelines of the united states. &nbsp;The Regional Boundaries data set is managed by the FWS Headquarters, Joint Administrative Operations (JAO), Branch of Geospatial Data Services (BGDS). The complete data and metadata can be accessed here: https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/us-fish-and-wildlife-service-regional-boundaries.&nbsp; This data set is a graphical representation and has limitations of accuracy as determined by, among others, the source, scale and resolution of the data.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>Kentucky Bend was added to R4 - Southeast Region and was the most recent modification to this dataset, completed on 2/3/2026</p><p>ServCat Repository: <a target='_blank' href='https://iris.fws.gov/APPS/ServCat/Reference/Profile/52322' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>https://iris.fws.gov/APPS/ServCat/Reference/Profile/52322</a></p><p>Point of Contact: <a href='mailto:[e-mail]' rel='nofollow ugc'>[e-mail]</a> e-mail: <a href='mailto:[e-mail]' rel='nofollow ugc'>[e-mail]</a></p><div><strong>DOI Interior Regions / Regional Boundaries (https://fws.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=309aa728d6c041ceaefc1526a409b5d1).</strong></div>
