CDFW conducts risk assessments and implements management actions for the commercial and recreational Dungeness crab fisheries at the fishing zone level. Latitudinal boundaries for each fishing zone are as follows. All fishing zones extend to 200 nautical miles offshore. Zone 1: From the California/Oregon border (42° N. latitude) to Cape Mendocino (40° 10' N. latitude) Zone 2: From Cape Mendocino to the Sonoma/Mendocino county line (38° 46.125' N. latitude) Zone 3: From Sonoma/Mendocino county line to Pigeon Point (37° 11' N. latitude) Zone 4: From Pigeon Point to Lopez Point (36° N. latitude) Zone 5: From Lopez Point to Point Conception (34° 27 N. latitude) Zone 6: From Point Conception to the U.S./Mexico Border Zone 7: “Pacific Leatherback Sea Turtle Foraging Area” from Point Arena (38° 57.5' N. latitude) to Point Pinos (36° 38.314' N. latitude) Attributes: FishingZone: Zone Number. Description: Latitudinal boundaries of each fishing zone.
This data depicts the fishing zones used to manage marine life entanglement risk under the Risk Assessment and Mitigation Program (RAMP). The RAMP Fishing Zones are defined in the California Code of Regulation's Section 132.8(a)(7) of Title 14 and were codified in regulation on November 1, 2020. These zones are current as of September, 2023 but may change during future rule making.
