DEPARTMENT OF STATE
[Public Notice 12244]
RIN: 1400-AF75
Continental Shelf and Maritime Boundaries; Notice of Limits

SUMMARY:

This notice provides updated information pertaining to the outer limits of the U.S. continental shelf.

DATES:

These limits are in effect as of December 21, 2023.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Brian Van Pay, Executive Director, U.S. Extended Continental Shelf Project, Department of State,
vanpaybj@state.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

By Presidential Proclamation No. 2667 made on September 28, 1945, the United States asserted jurisdiction and control over the natural resources of its continental shelf. Subsequent to that Presidential Proclamation and through its domestic laws, the United States has exercised sovereign rights and jurisdiction over its continental shelf, consistent with international law.

The Department of State on behalf of the Government of the United States hereby announces the outer limits of the continental shelf of the United States of America. The coordinates in this notice describe the outer limits of the continental shelf of the United States in areas beyond 200 nautical miles from the baseline from which the breadth of the territorial sea is measured, in accordance with international law.
1

In other areas, the outer limits of the continental shelf of the United States are the same as the limits of the exclusive economic zone of the United States set forth in Public Notice 12243 or any subsequent Public Notice pertaining to the limits of the U.S. exclusive economic zone in such areas that supersedes that notice.

1
For more information on the outer limits of the U.S. continental shelf in areas beyond 200 nautical miles from the baseline from which the breadth of the territorial sea is measured, see the U.S. Extended Continental Shelf Project on the website of the Department of State (
https://www.state.gov/u-s-extended-continental-shelf-project/
).

The limits set forth in this notice are subject to future revision, including with respect to maritime boundary delimitation with neighboring countries. The Government of the United States has been, is, and will be engaged in consultations and negotiations with governments of neighboring countries concerning the delimitation of areas subject to the respective jurisdiction of the United States and of these countries. The outer limits of the continental shelf of the United States as set forth in this notice are without prejudice to any negotiations with these countries or to any positions that may have been or may be adopted respecting the limits of maritime jurisdiction in such areas.

The coordinates in this notice are expressed in decimal degrees and have six decimal places. All coordinates use the World Geodetic System 1984 (“WGS 84”) datum, unless otherwise noted.

Some coordinates in this notice were derived from treaties that use a different datum or were expressed in degrees, minutes, and seconds. In the case of a discrepancy, the relevant treaties take precedence over the contents of this notice.

The term “straight line” means a geodesic line, which is the shortest distance between two points on the referenced ellipsoid and is the most common method of linking coordinates defining maritime limits and boundaries.

This notice is exempt from the requirements of 5 U.S.C. 553, to the extent those requirements apply, as it relates to a foreign affairs function of the United States. (See Title 5 U.S.C. 553 (a)(1).) This notice “`clearly and directly' involve[s] activities or actions characteristic of the conduct of international relations,”
E.B.
v.
U.S. Dep't of State,
583 F. Supp. 3d 58, 66 (D.D.C. 2022), because it announces the locations of maritime boundaries agreed between the United States and other countries and the geographic limits within which the United States may exercise sovereign rights and jurisdiction in accordance with international law. See,
e.g., City of New York
v.
Permanent Mission of India to United Nations,
618 F.3d 172, 201 (2d Cir. 2010). Since it is exempt from Section 553, the provisions of 5 U.S.C 553(d) do not apply, and this notice is in effect upon publication.

ATL-OL-001 is located on a seaward extension of the maritime boundary between the United States and Canada delimited by a chamber of the International Court of Justice in 1984.

ATL-OL-176 is located on the 200 nautical mile limit of The Bahamas.

3
Delimitation of the Maritime Boundary in the Gulf of Maine Area, 1984 I.C.J. Reports 246 (Judgment of Oct. 12, 1984). The boundary delimited by a chamber of International Court of Justice does not extend beyond 200 nautical miles from the baseline from which the breadth of the U.S. territorial sea is measured. For purposes of delineating its continental shelf limits in areas beyond 200 nautical miles, the United States has computed a seaward extension of the Chamber's delimitation line in the area beyond 200 nautical miles from the U.S. baseline, maintaining the same southeasterly trajectory.
