Additional Information	Name dropped December 9, 2009 because mapping from newer data shows that the descriptor term 'regio' is not appropriate for this area.

The boundaries shown on the maps above are approximate and are intended only to portray the locations of named features and their rough extents.

Changes in the control network drop down are not reflected in the feature boundaries in the map above. Only the primary control network feature boundaries (in green) are displayed on the map.
