Maine Statewide Orthoimagery Project - During the spring of 2022 the Woolpert team acquired new 4-band (R, G, B, and NIR). The imagery was acquired covering the entire project area using UltraCam Eagle digital camera systems. All imagery was collected during the 2022 spring flying season during leaf-off conditions for deciduous vegetation in the State of Maine. The sun angle shall be 25-degrees or greater, and streams should be within their normal banks, unless otherwise negotiated. During flight planning and acquisition, a significant effort is made to limit clouds, snow (please note: small amounts of snow such as piles in parking lots, extreme shaded areas, within dense evergreens or unpopulated northern facing slopes may be acceptable), fog, haze, smoke, or other ground obscuring conditions in the imagery. In no case will the maximum cloud cover exceed 5% per image. Within the immediate areas of power plants, factories, or controlled agricultural burns some steam or smoke and/or shadows may be visible on imagery. Woolpert produced new 8-bit, 4-band stacked color digital orthoimagery files in GeoTIFF format with TFW “world file” at a 7.5cm (3-inch) and 15cm (6-inch).

The area within two (2) miles of the break walls at Rogers City. Restrictions: Harbor closure shall apply.Created a new point shapefile in ArcGIS 8.1. A point was located on the USGS Presque Isle county 1:24,000 DRG as outlined in the Consent Decree 2000 documentation. The point was generated on the nautical light located at the southeast end of the breakwall. A two mile buffer was then generated from the point shapefile using the buffer wizard tool in Arc Map. This buffered point location was then intersected with the National Oceanic and Atmoshperic Administration - Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (NOAA - GLERL) shoreline layer using the intersecting tool from the geoprocessing wizard in Arc Map to create the final Rogers City Harbor Closure layer. The desired features were then reprojected from Michigan georef to Decimal Degrees to create the final Northern Lake Huron Inter- Tribal Fishing Zone layer. The NOAA - GLERL shoreline layer was cleaned by both Great Lakes Commission (GLC) and Lake Huron GIS (MDNR - LHGIS) after completion.The boundaries represented on consent decree maps are approximations based on the text contained in the 2000 Consent Decree. For legal descriptions of geographic extent or details pertaining to regulations for these representations refer to the original 2000 Consent Decree Document.

This layer shows the boundaries of the areas in Maine which are under the jurisdiction of each DEP office, based on the 1:24,000 towns layer provided by Maine Office of GIS. It can be used to quickly identify which DEP office would have jurisdiction over sites in Maine. CMRO - Central Maine Office in Augusta, EMRO - Eastern Maine Office in Bangor, NMRO - Northern Maine Office in Presque Isle, Southern Maine Office in Portland.
