[talk-pr] Pregunta de Limites Administrativos

[Victor Ramirez]

Creo que ya me he respondido la pregunta:

Los siguientes links mencionan la clausula que define las aguas
territoriales de PR

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dmaritime

http://www.charts.noaa.gov/OnLineViewer/25640.shtml

"Within the 12-nautical mile territorial sea, established by Presidential
Proclamation, some federal laws apply. The Three Nautical Mile Line,
previously identified as the outer limit of the territorial sea, is
retained as it continues to depict the jurisdictional limit of the other
laws. The 9-nautical mile Natural Resource Boundary off the Gulf coast of
Florida, Texas, and Puerto Rico, and the Three Nautical Mile Line elsewhere
remain in most cases the inner limit of Federal fisheries jurisdiction and
the outer limit of the jurisdiction of the states. The 24-nautical mile
Contiguous Zone and the 200-nautical mile Exclusive Economic Zone were
established by Presidential Proclamation. Unless fixed by treaty or the
U.S. Supreme Court, these maritime limits are subject to modification."

*¡La contestacion entonces el 9 millas nauticas!*

No obstante, hay solapes entre las 9 millas de PR y las 3 millas de Islas
Virgenes. En mi carrera de cartografo todavia no he encontrado un mapa o
capa que muestre la frontera maritima entre PR y USVI. Si alguien puede
aportar cualquier informacion que conduzca a resolver esta disputa con
Islas virgenes se gana una cerveza.
