Description
Abstract
True Buzzards Bay watershed used by the Buzzards Bay National Estuary Program based on multiple data sets and best professional judgement.

Purpose
This information and data layer is for planning purposes

Supplementary Information
This coverage will be updated as individual subwatersheds are updated by the DEP Massachusetts Estuaries Project.  There is debate as to whether the Quitticas Ponds should be included in the Buzzards Bay watershed.  More information is availble at: http://www.buzzardsbay.org/buzzards-bay-boundary.htm.  The north end of the Buzzards Bay watershed is based on groundwater elevations and does not agree with DEP's watershed boundary.
