This data layer is part of a dataset created to support the 1998 Revision of the NWT Wildlife Act and the applicable Regulations to ensure that the boundary of any wildlife area was accurately mapped at a scale of 1:250,000. These boundaries are described in Schedules A: (Border Licence A) and B: (Border Licence B) of the GNWT Wildlife Licences and Permits Regulations. The boundaries are used to assign Barren-Ground Caribou hunting permits for indigenous people who live outside of the NWT but who have traditionally hunted in the NWT. The boundaries cover the traditional ranges of the Beverly and Qamanirjuaq Barren-Ground Caribou Herds. NTS hard copy map sheets were used as the basis for drafting the boundaries. The data collection and digitizing started in 1995. Data compilation started in 1996. This data has not been updated since 1996. Note in the Wildlife Licences and Permits Regulations, the Border Licence Area described as U/BL/02 in the data is described as Licence Area 'A' and the area described as U/BL/02 in the data is described as Licence Area 'B'. This discrepancy will be addressed as part of the Wildlife Regulations update after the new Wildlife Act has been passed. The NWT was divided into 23 Management Units, Zones and Areas for the purpose of conserving and managing wildlife in the NWT. These boundaries are named and may be subdivided or overlap to meet specific management requirements. These boundaries are updated as required for wildlife management. The original data did include boundaries for National Parks, Migratory Bird Sanctuaries, Thelon Wildlife and Mackenzie Bison Sanctuaries which have been moved to the Conservation Areas portion of the SDE. NOTE: The original intent of these boundaries was that where they were based on final land claim boundaries that the wildlife management area boundary would also follow the land claim boundary. This did not always occur and there are some locations where the boundaries do not match. Both sets of boundaries are correct as they have both been legally described. This Act is in the process of being updated. The corresponding Regulations will be updated once the Act has been adopted and these discrepancies will be removed.

In June 2001, it was decided that most users of this data did not need to know the origin of the line work. It was only required in case the location of a line is ever questioned so a secondary set of coverages were created in which the lines were simplified. This makes the data easier to use. E00 and shapefiles have been created using the 'simplified data' and all will have a simlar naming structure. Because one of the original reasons that the digital layers were created was to support the Wildlife Act and Regulations, and as the linework used to outline each polygon was either digitized, or came from other sources and at varying times it was decided that a record was needed of the origin of each line segment that formed the boundary of each polygon. NOTE: These linework attributes are not included in the distribution version. If there is a need to know the source of the original linework, contact the NWTCG to obtain a copy of the original file.
