        <RULE_TITLE>Boundary Expansion of Cordell Bank and Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuaries</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NOAA is considering extending the boundaries of the two sanctuaries to add the northern area from Bodega Bay, Sonoma County to Alder Creek, Mendocino County, and west to the edge of the continental shelf.  NOAA is also considering amending the regulations and management plans for GFNMS and CBNMS to this area. The boundary expansion would protect the upwelling source waters of the sanctuaries, as well as nationally-significant seascapes, wildlife, and shipwrecks, and would promote ecotourism and sustainable fishing practices. If expanded, the new sanctuary boundaries could protect up to an additional 2,771 square statute miles.]]></ABSTRACT>
