councils are community-based advisory
groups established to provide advice
and recommendations to the
superintendents of the national marine
sanctuaries and the
¯
¯
Papahanaumokuakea Marine National
Monument on issues including
management, science, service, and
stewardship; and to serve as liaisons
between their constituents in the
community and the sanctuary.
Additional information on ONMS and
its 14 advisory councils can be found at
https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov. Information
related to the purpose, policies and
operational requirements for advisory
councils can be found in the charter for
a particular advisory council (https://

ACTION: Informational notice.
AGENCY:
The Office of National
Geodetic Survey has adjusted the
Nation’s Shoreline Compilation Scale
for more efficient application to the
primary product that it supports, NOAA
Nautical Charts. The current
requirement is ‘‘For any portion of a
project area, the Compilation Scale
within that portion is equal to two times
the scale of the largest scale chart or
chart inset that includes that portion.
However, the Compilation Scale will be
neither smaller than 1:20,000 nor larger
than 1:2,500.’’ The new requirement is
‘‘For any portion of a project area, the
Compilation Scale within that portion
will be equal to the scale of the largest
scale NOAA Nautical Chart or chart
inset. However, the Compilation Scale
will be neither smaller than 1:24,000
nor larger than 1:2,500.’’
DATES: Effective Date: March 5, 2014.

be sent to the attention of Michael L.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under 33
U.S.C. 883a, et seq., NOAA’s National
Ocean Service (NOS) is responsible for
providing nautical charts and related
information for safe navigation. NOS
collects and compiles hydrographic,
tidal and current, geodetic, and a variety
of other data. NGS collects data for
managing our Nation’s coastal resources
and to define the National Shoreline,
which provides critical baseline data for
updating nautical charts and defining
our Nation’s territorial limits, including
the Exclusive Economic Zone. Shoreline
Compilation Scale changes supersede
the following which is listed in the
Scope of Work for Shoreline Mapping
(SOW, Version 14A Section 4.5
Compilation Scale) under NOAA’s
Coastal Mapping Program:
4.5. Compilation Scale—The
Compilation Scale is used to determine
the general level of detail and feature
generalization that the compiler should
use in a particular area of a project.
Many features have guidelines for their
collection based on a particular map
distance at the Compilation Scale. This
Compilation Scale will normally be
defined in the Project Instructions, but
generally, the following rule is used: For
any portion of a project area, the
Compilation Scale within that portion is
equal to two times the scale of the
largest scale chart or chart inset that
includes that portion. However, the
Compilation Scale will be neither
smaller than 1:20,000 nor larger than
1:2,500.
