Habitat Protection for Cetaceans around the World 173 The roman numerals, letters and numbers correspond to the sanctuaries and MPAs listed and described in Table 5.7. Figure 5.9 Map of Marine Region 4: Northwest Atlantic MPAs and sanctuaries In addition to the management plan review, there have been frequent suggestions to expand the sanctuary or to create one or two new ones in adjacent waters used by the same populations of whales. These include Jeffreys Ledge and Great South Channel. Most years on Stellwagen Bank, the whales and dolphins divide much of their spring and summer feeding time between the three areas, and in the summers, when the whales disappear from Stellwagen Bank, they are sometimes found in these other areas.
