Scottish Marine Region Masks

Marine planning will be implemented at a local level within Scottish Marine Regions extending out to 12 nautical miles. Within these regions, Regional Marine Plans will be developed to take account of local circumstances and smaller ecosystem units. They will be developed in accordance with the National Marine Plan and Marine Policy Statement to ensure they are consistent with national objectives and priorities.

Mask layers have been produced for NMPi depicting each of the Scottish Marine regions. These masks and the complete Scottish Marine Region layer can be viewed from the links in the map table below.
