Statement

Salmon Stock Assessment Areas boundaries were derived by Scottish Government Marine Scotland from 1:50,000 river catchment boundaries which were created by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) from the Institute of Hydrology (now the Centre for Environment and Hydrology (CEH)) 1:50,000 Digital Terrain Model (DTM) data. Assessment Areas boundaries were created as a subset of Scottish river catchments with coastal outflow locations at Normal Tide Limit (NTL). For 17 salmon Special Areas of Conservation (SACs), outflow locations were adjusted to match SAC boundaries from Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) (now NatureScot) and for the River Tweed SAC, in part from the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC).

The 1:50,000 scale of Salmon Stock Assessment Areas boundaries means that they are suitable for mapping but may not be sufficiently accurate to produce exact selections from, or overlaps with, other datasets.

Maps containing Salmon Stock Assessment Areas boundaries require Crown copyright and acknowledgement of SEPA and CEH, while data from NatureScot and JNCC require an Open Government Licence statement:

'Assessment Areas boundaries derived from the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) 1:50,000 river catchment data, based on digital spatial data licensed from the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, © NERC (CEH)' (preceded if appropriate by 'Some features of this map are'); and
