Summary

Show DTSC Regions

Description

The 'DTSCREGIONS' layer represents the California Department of Toxic Substance Control regions. The library layer is a polygon coverage which shows the regional boundaries, as of 1990, and gives the region name. DTSC regions are large areas which are based on aggregations of counties, for the most part. The split in Los Angeles County between Regions 3 and 4 is State Route 91. There are 4 regions in the State.

Measure description DATA QUALITY ASSESSMENT: The following are subjective comments regarding this data. The layer is based on Teale's county lines as of 1990 and is complete; 4 districts are included. The county lines were digitized from 1:100,000 source material so the accuracy of the linework is inherited from that layer. Non-county linework was digitized from a variety of sources and is of fair-to-good accuracy. The only attribute for this layer is the region number.

Abstract
                              The 'DTSCREGIONS' layer represents the California Department
  of Toxic Substance Control regions. The library layer 
  is a polygon coverage which shows the regional boundaries, 
  as of 1990, and gives the region name.
  
  DTSC regions are large areas which are based on aggregations
  of counties, for the most part. The split in Los Angeles 
  County between Regions 3 and 4 is State Route 91. There 
  are 4 regions in the State.
