This shapefile defines the two distinct zones within the 2013 boundary of the Pacific Marine and Estuarine Fish Habitat Partnership (PMEP), a recognized Fish Habitat Partnership (FHP) of the National Fish Habitat Partnership (NFHP). The two zones of the PMEP include the estuarine and marine nearshore complex (PMEP focus area, coastal subregions, and nearshore marine waters) of the states of California, Oregon, and Washington.

This shapefile is the official focus area of the Pacific Marine and Estuarine Fish Habitat Partnership (PMEP), a recognized Fish Habitat Partnership (FHP) of the National Fish Habitat Partnership (NFHP). The focus area lays within the partnership's larger area of interest or 'geographic scope' within and offshore of the states of California, Oregon, and Washington. The focus area boundary aims to highlight the nearshore marine and estuarine tidal waters.

Partnership - Pacific Marine and Estuarine Fish Habitat Partnership Milltown Island historically was an estuarine wetland and is located in the Skagit River tidal delta in Washington. However, beginning in the late 1800s the island was diked and disconnected from the Skagit River and Bay. There was, and still is a great deal of local interest in this and many other projects on the Skagit River watershed because of the desire to restore estuaries and wetlands and improve habitat for native fish. Current fish assemblage includes 14 native species: Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Chum Salmon, Pink Salmon, Cutthroat Trout, Steelhead Trout, Mountain Whitefish, Three Spined Stickleback, Peamouth Chub, Prickly Sculpin,...
