Summary
Abstract: This georegulatory data layer represents the region of applicability
for the Endangered Species Act. Attributes were added to the spatial data file
in order to provide the user with not only the the statutory and regulatory
references for this law, but also the name and contact information of the state
agency with regulatory jurisdiction.

Purpose: The ability to visualize regulations, laws, or management structures
