(FWS Interest is available at: <https://fws.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=0a30eaf43328427db8750282d67f0005> ) This data set is a simplified version of the FWS Interest feature class. The spatial and positional accuracy of this information will vary depending on the original source data and methods utilized. All data sources are not listed in this document but are maintained regionally and are available upon request. We strive to improve the accuracy of this data and incorporate more reliable information when available.
