Unit boundary

Simplified for the web from the public layer of Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife, published on Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs GIS (source and terms). Units change with each season's regulations, and the legal boundary description in the regulations is what counts.
