Description: The Massachusetts Community Preservation Act (CPA) was signed into law by former Governor Paul Cellucci and Lt. Governor Jane Swift on September 14, 2000 (Chapter 267 of the Acts of 2000). The CPA has been amended several times. The CPA allows communities to create a local Community Preservation Fund to raise money through a surcharge of up to 3% of the real estate tax levy on real property for open space protection, historic preservation and the provision of affordable housing. The act also creates a significant state matching fund, which serves as an incentive to communities to pass the CPA.In the summer of 2007 the EEA, MassGIS and Community Preservation Coalition worked together to create an online version of the CP-3 form which communities complete to give information on projects that the CPA funds. Part of the online submission form is a map to locate a point for the project (if the project has a geographic component). The existing project database was cleaned up and new projects were entered using the tool to catch up the list. The online CP-3 form also allows communities to update information on older projects.The layer is stored in ArcSDE as AFREEMAN.CPA_PROJECTS_NEW_PUB in the production PostgreSQL database.Some points were created by MassGIS, others by the Community Preservation Coalitionor town Community Preservation Committees.This datalayer only contains Community Preservation Act projects that have associated points.

Description: This dataset is a digital soil survey and generally is the most detailed level of soil geographic data developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. The information was prepared by digitizing maps, by compiling information onto a planimetric correct base and digitizing, or by revising digitized maps using remotely sensed and other information.This dataset consists of georeferenced digital map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are in a state-wide extent format and include a detailed, field verified inventory of soils and miscellaneous areas that normally occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be cartographically shown at the scale mapped. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the National Soil Information System relational database, which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties.

Description: This datalayer contains points for all vernal pools that have been certified by the Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program (NHESP) according to the Guidelines for Certification of Vernal Pool Habitat (MA Division of Fisheries and Wildlife, 2000). Vernal pools are small, shallow ponds characterized by lack of fish and by periods of dryness. Vernal pool habitat is extremely important to a variety of wildlife species including some amphibians that breed exclusively in vernal pools, and other organisms such as fairy shrimp, which spend their entire life cycles confined to vernal pool habitat. Many additional wildlife species utilize vernal pools for breeding, feeding and other important functions. Certified vernal pools are protected if they fall under the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Wetlands Protection Act Regulations (310 CMR 10.00). However, the certification of a pool only establishes that it functions biologically as a vernal pool. Certification does not determine that the pool is within a resource area protected by the Wetlands Protection Act. Certified vernal pools are also afforded protection under the state Water Quality Certification regulations (401 Program), the state Title 5 regulations, and the Forest Cutting Practices Act regulations. The Certified Vernal Pools layer is stored in ArcSDE as CVP_PT. Occurrence records of Certified Vernal Pools from the NHESP database are continuously being added and modified. Those changes will be incorporated into the Certified Vernal Pools datalayer twice annually, in the months of January and July. Questions about the creation of this datalayer should be directed to NHESP at 508-389-6375. For questions relating to the certification of Vernal Pools, please call 508-389-6365.

Description: The Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (MADFW) has mapped Coldwater Fisheries Resources (CFRs) at a scale of 1:25,000, based on the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) data. CFRs are important habitat for a number of cold water species, including trout. Coldwater species are typically more sensitive than other species to alterations to stream flow, water quality and temperature within their aquatic habitat. Identification of CFRs is based on fish samples collected annually by staff biologists and technicians. New streams are sampled and evaluated yearly.Last Updated on February 10, 2021.ProductionThe MADFW stores stream sampling data based on SARIS ID. Since SARIS IDs were originally assigned at a scale of 1:100,000 those SARIS codes were first reassigned to the NHD arcs, mapped at a scale of 1:25,000. All of the NHD arcs, including artificial flowpaths, attributed with a given SARIS code were denoted as Coldwater if there was a sampling point for that stream that was designated a CFR. EditingWherever possible, the reach designated by the SARIS code on the sampled stream was highlighted in its entirety in NHD. The SARIS code as assigned in the original 1:100,000 hydrography data was attributed to the NHD linework where it followed the flowpath. Rivers and streams are clipped at 0.5 km outside the Massachusetts border to account for any sinuosity at the state border.

Description: Water Body AUs - Rivers (arcs) River AUs: Individual river AUs are represented as one or more lines in the arc feature class. Linework was derived from the MassGIS 1:25,000 hydrography based on USGS topographic maps. Additional on-screen editing was performed as needed using USGS topographic quadrangles and/or MassGIS color orthophotos as a base map for all river AUs. Lake AUs: Lake AUs are represented as one or more polygons in the polygon feature class. Lake AU polygons were selected from the MassGIS 1:25,000 hydrography layer, where available, and placed in a separate file where additional editing (typically closure lines) may have been performed. In some cases AUs were drawn and/or edited to reflect current conditions using USGS topographic quadrangles, and/or MassGIS color orthophotos as the base map. Estuary AUs: Estuary AUs are represented as polygons. Where available, polygons are derived from the MassGIS 1:25,000 hydrography based on the name and description of each estuarine AU. Additional on-screen digitizing to close polygons to reflect waters actually assessed, but that may not have been represented in the hydrography layer, was completed using the USGS topographic quadrangles as the base map. All AUs (Rivers, Lakes, Estuaries): River, lake, and estuary features, regardless of their derivation, were combined into two single statewide feature classes, one for lines (IL_2016_ARC alias: Water Body AUs - Rivers (arcs)) and one for polygons (IL_2016_POLY alias: Water Body AUs - Lakes, Estuaries (polygons)). There is no AU overlap in any two adjacent river, lake or estuary features. Attributes: Except for standard GIS items (e.g., Shape_Length (meters), Shape_Area (square meters), Shape, OBJECTID, FID), all attributes were obtained from the DWM/WPP and are presented in the table IL_ATTAINS_2016. This table has a many-to-one relationship with individual features in the IL_2016_ARC and IL_2016_POLY features classes. Only attributes that are the same for every record concerning a feature were added to the attribute table of the feature set. A water body AU has only one unique identifier (AU_ID) and description, however, in the ATTAINS table the individual AU information repeats as necessary to accommodate the number of uses assessed, each cause of impairment, and each source for the cause of impairment. The IL_ATTAINS_2016 table can be related to geographic features using the AU_ID. The additional table (IL_SEGDEF_2016) can be used for summarizing data and can be related to geographic features using the AU_ID. Fields in the IL_2016_POLY and IL_2016_ARC attribute tables are as follows:Cycle: Reporting cycle year.WBID_2016: Assessment Unit ID (AU_ID) with the reporting cycle year.Watershed: The MassDEP DWM/WPP watershed delineations are based on the MassGIS Major Basins layer; modified to reflect surface drainage areas for use with the MassDEP Integrated List of Waters report by the WPP. For example, a portion of the Cape Cod Watershed Area was changed to reflect its drainage into Buzzards Bay, resulting in shape changes for both the Cape Cod and Buzzards Bay watershed delineations. In general, the watershed name is based on the Massachusetts Stream and River Inventory System (SARIS) that includes all Massachusetts river basins and coastal drainage areas (Halliwell et al., 1982). The WPP watershed name Boston Harbor (Proper) does not appear in the MassGIS Major Basins layer or the SARIS list of watersheds; it refers to the harbor itself. Three drainage area types are further described in SARIS as follows: River Basin: Major inland river basin. River Basin and Coastal Drainage Area: Major inland river basin coupled with smaller areas draining directly to coastal waters within the general geographic area of the associated river basin. Coastal Drainage Area: Subdivisions of the coastal drainage system that have been partitioned into specific geographic areas. These areas all drain to coastal waters but may have multiple small-scale drainages.Waterbody: Water body names are based on three inventory systems: Stream and River Inventory System (SARIS), Pond and Lake Inventory System (PALIS), or Coastal and Marine Inventory System (CAMIS).AU_ID: Water body Assessment Unit identification code (AU_ID) for the 2016 cycle of the Massachusetts Integrated List of Waters report.Location1: Description of the water body AU.Location2: Continuation of the location description if LOCATION1 exceeds 255 characters.WaterCode: Unique water body code based on SARIS, PALIS, or CAMIS inventory coding systems.WaterType: Water body AU type: River (including streams, brooks, etc.), Lake (including ponds, reservoirs, etc.), or EstuaryAU_Size: Size of the water body AU. (Some historic values in this field may have been based on measurements made with map wheels and other techniques including, but not limited to, planimetry using USGS Quad sheets at a scale of 1:25,000. New values are generated using GIS.) AU_Size is the size reported to the EPA for the AU (portion within the state not necessarily the entire waterbody).Size_Unit: Water body size units: Miles (Rivers), Acres (Lakes), Square Miles (Estuaries)Class: Class assigned to the water body as defined in the Massachusetts Surface Water Quality Standards (314 CMR 4.00) that can be found at https://www.mass.gov/regulations/314-CMR-4-the-massachusetts-surface-water-quality-standards. (Clarification Note: Classification is reflective of version of Standards available at time when assessment decisions were made.)Qualifier: Class qualifiers (e.g., WWF [warm water fishery], CWF [cold water fishery], etc.) assigned to water body as defined in the Massachusetts Surface Water Quality Standards (314 CMR 4.00). (Clarification Note: Classification is reflective of version of Standards available at time when assessment decisions were made.)Category: The category of the water body AU in the Massachusetts Year 2016 Integrated List of Waters report; category descriptions are as follows:Category 1) Unimpaired and not threatened for all designated uses; Category 2) Unimpaired for some uses and not assessed for others; Category 3) Insufficient information to make assessments for any uses; Category 4) Impaired for one or more uses, but not requiring the calculation of a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Category 4A) Impaired for one or more designated uses but does not require the development of a TMDL: TMDL has been completed. Category 4B) Impaired for one or more designated uses but does not require the development of a TMDL: Other pollution control requirements are reasonably expected to result in the attainment of designated uses. Category 4C) Impaired for one or more designated uses but does not require the development of a TMDL: Impairment is not caused by a pollutant. Category 5) Impaired for one or more uses and requiring a TMDL (impairment due to pollutant(s) such as nutrients, metals, pesticides, solids and pathogens).TMDL_count: The number of unique MassDEP DWM/WPP TMDL reports associated with the AU for the 2016 reporting cycle.

Description: The MassDEP DWM/WPP watershed delineations are based on the MassGIS Major Basins layer; modified to reflect surface drainage areas for use with the MassDEP Integrated List of Waters report by the WPP. For example, a portion of the Cape Cod Watershed Area was changed to reflect its drainage into Buzzards Bay, resulting in shape changes for both the Cape Cod and Buzzards Bay watershed delineations. In general, the watershed name is based on the Massachusetts Stream and River Inventory System (SARIS) that includes all Massachusetts river basins and coastal drainage areas (Halliwell et al., 1982). The WPP watershed name Boston Harbor (Proper) does not appear in the MassGIS Major Basins layer or the SARIS list of watersheds; it refers to the harbor itself.

Description: Water Body AUs - Rivers (arcs) ----- River AUs: : Individual river AUs are represented as one or more lines in the arc feature class. Linework was derived from the MassGIS 1:25,000 hydrographybased on USGS topographic maps. Additional on-screen editing was performed as needed using USGS topographic quadranglesand/or MassGIS Aerial Imagesas a base map for all river AUs. Lake AUs:Lake AUs are represented as one or more polygons in the polygon feature class. Lake AU polygons were selected from the MassGIS 1:25,000 hydrographylayer, where available, and placed in a separate file where additional editing (typically closure lines) may have been performed. In some cases AUs were drawn and/or edited to reflect current conditions using USGS topographic quadrangles, and/or MassGIS Aerial Imagesas the base map. Estuary AUs:Estuary AUs are represented as polygons. Where available, polygons are derived from the MassGIS 1:25,000 hydrographybased on the name and description of each estuarine AU. Additional on-screen digitizing to close polygons to reflect waters actually assessed, but that may not have been represented in the hydrography layer, was completed using the USGS topographic quadranglesas the base map. All AUs (Rivers, Lakes, Estuaries): River, lake, and estuary features, regardless of their derivation, were combined into two single statewide feature classes, one for lines (IL_2018_ARC alias: Waterbody AUs - Rivers (arcs)) and one for polygons (IL_2018_POLY alias: Waterbody AUs - Lakes, Estuaries (polygons)). There is no AU overlap in any two adjacent river, lake, or estuary features. Attributes: Except for standard GIS items (e.g., Shape_Length (meters), Shape_Area (square meters), Shape, OBJECTID, FID), all attributes were obtained from the DWM/WPP and are presented in the table IL_ATTAINS_2018. This table has a many-to-one relationship with individual features in the IL_2018_ARC and IL_2018_POLY features classes. Only attributes that are the same for every record concerning a feature were added to the attribute table of the feature set. A waterbody AU has only one unique identifier (AU_ID) and description, however, in the ATTAINS table the individual AU information repeats as necessary to accommodate the number of uses assessed, each cause of impairment, and each source for the cause of impairment. The IL_ATTAINS_2018 table can be related to geographic features using the AU_ID. The additional table (IL_SEGDEF_2018) can be used for summarizing data and can be related to geographic features using the AU_ID. Fields in the IL_2018_POLY and IL_2018_ARC attribute tables are as follows:Cycle: Reporting cycle year. Note: although this field shows 2018, the reporting cycle was combined for 2018 and 2020.WBID_2018: Assessment Unit ID (AU_ID) with the reporting cycle year. For simplification, only the first year of the combined 2018/2020 reporting cycle was used.Watershed: The MassDEP DWM/WPP watershed delineations are based on the MassGIS Major Basins layer; modified to reflect surface drainage areas for use with the MassDEP Integrated List of Waters report by the WPP.

(Some historic values in this field may have been based on measurements made with map wheels and other techniques including, but not limited to, planimetry using USGS Quad sheets at a scale of 1:25,000. New values are generated using GIS.) AU_Size is the size reported to the EPA for the AU (portion within the state only, not necessarily the entire waterbody).Size_Unit: Waterbody size units: Miles (Rivers), Acres (Lakes), Square Miles (Estuaries)Class: Class assigned to the water body as defined in the Massachusetts Surface Water Quality Standards (314 CMR 4.00) that can be found at Massachusetts Surface Water Quality Standards (314 CMR 4.00).(Clarification Note: Classification is reflective of Standards version available at the time when assessment decisions were made.)Qualifier: Class qualifiers (e.g., WWF [warm water fishery], CWF [cold water fishery], etc.) assigned to waterbody as defined in the Massachusetts Surface Water Quality Standards (314 CMR 4.00). (Clarification Note: Classification is reflective of Standards version available at the time when assessment decisions were made.)Category: The category of the water body AU in the Massachusetts Year 2018/2020 Integrated List of Waters report; category descriptions are as follows:Category 1) Unimpaired and not threatened for all designated uses; Category 2)Unimpaired for some uses and not assessed for others; Category 3) Insufficient information to make assessments for any uses; Category 4)Impaired for one or more uses, but not requiring the calculation of a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Category 4A) Impaired for one or more designated uses but does not require the development of a TMDL: TMDL has been completed. Category 4B) Impaired for one or more designated uses but does not require the development of a TMDL: Other pollution control requirements are reasonably expected to result in the attainment of designated uses. Category 4C) Impaired for one or more designated uses but does not require the development of a TMDL: Impairment is not caused by a pollutant. Category 5) Impaired for one or more uses and requiring a restorative "action" plan, such as a TMDL or Alternative Restoration Plan (impairment due to pollutant(s) such as nutrients, metals, pesticides, solids, and pathogens).REP_count: The number of unique action plans (TMDL reports or Alternative Restoration Plans) associated with the AU for the 2018/2020 reporting cycle.

Description: The MBTA Rapid Transit Station layers represents the station stops on the five subway, streetcar/trolley and Silver Line bus lines in the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority’s rapid transit rail network. Stations are contained in a point feature class named MBTA_NODE. The five ‘T’ lines - Blue, Green, Orange, Red and Silver - are represented with linework in the layer MBTA_ARC. The layers were developed by the Central Transportation Planning Staff (CTPS), with additional editing by MassGIS based on current information from mbta.com. The MBTA Commuter Rail lines are included in the TRAINS_ARC layer. It should be noted that the Silver Line actually consists of buses, not trains, but the line is included in this layer because the MBTA includes it as part of its Subway system map (see https://www.mbta.com/schedules/subway).

Description: MassGIS' Level 3 Assessors’ Parcel Mapping data set was developed through a competitive procurement funded by MassGIS. Each community in the Commonwealth was bid on by one or more vendors and the unit of work awarded was a city or town. The specification for this work was Level 3 of the MassGIS Digital Parcel Standard. Standardization of assessor parcel mapping is complete for 350 of Massachusetts' 351 cities and towns. (Boston, which is not part of this project, is being processed separately). MassGIS is now incorporating updates from municipalities into the database.

Description: As stated in 310 CMR 22.02, Zone I means the protective radius required around a public water supply well or wellfield. For public water system wells with approved yields of 100,000 gpd or greater, the protective radius is 400 feet. Tubular wellfields require a 250-foot protective radius. Protective radii for all other public water system wells are determined by the following equation: Zone I radius in feet = (150 x log of pumping rate in gpd) - 350. This equation is equivalent to the chart in the Guidelines and Policies for Public Water Systems. A default Zone I radius or a Zone I radius otherwise computed and determined by the Department shall be applied to transient non-community (TNC) and non-transient non-community (NTNC) wells when there is no metered rate of withdrawal or no approved pumping rate. In no case shall the Zone I radius be less than 100 feet.
Description: 2020 Census tabulation blocks are polygons representing the smallest statistical areas used by the Census Bureau to compile and present demographics. They can be used in conjunction with associated Census demographics for visual presentation of those demographics and analysis. MassGIS acquired this data from the Census Bureau's website, projected it into Massachusetts State Plane NAD83 (meters), incorporated a generalized coastline, and added a few extra attributes to facilitate anticipated user needs.
