No-Discharge Zones Map
The interactive map linked below depicts all currently designated vessel sewage no-discharge zones (NDZs).
Each NDZ is identified using point markers with the name of the NDZ when the map is zoomed out. As the map is zoomed in, each NDZ is depicted using a colored polygon showing the extent and boundaries of the NDZ. Instances where all state waters have been designated are represented using black diagonal lines across the state. The image on the right demonstrates these different features.
-
zoom in on a red point marker to find the corresponding NDZ,
-
use the search bar located at the top of the map, or
-
click the bookmark tool directly under the search bar to view a complete list of the NDZs displayed on the map. To zoom directly to an NDZ’s polygon, click the icon next to the name of the NDZ in the bookmark list.
For more information on an individual NDZ, click anywhere within the NDZ’s colored polygon on the map to bring up a pop-up box with the date and type of designation, as well as a written description of the NDZ boundaries.
