Abstract:
Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission Waterways Conservation Officer Districts
Purpose:
Allows for mapping related to each District
Supplemental_Information:
The data set was created using the PennDOT municipalities GIS layers & TeleAtlas North America Roads GIS layers as District boundaries follow these features.  Polygons from the municipalities layers were merged to create the Districts and then modified using the roads layers where appropriate.  Roads were incorporated by using the Trace Sketch Tool in ArcMap.
