1986 Map of East of Fleets Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Chesapeake Bay waters dominate this bathymetric study, revealing the underwater topography of the Virginia coastline during the mid-1980s. The survey focuses heavily on the submerged landscape, characterized by a complex network of depth gradients and a prominent shipping Channel. A significant human-engineered feature is the large, rectangular Disposal Area situated in the central portion of the bay, where sediment from dredging operations was historically relocated. This map, compiled by the National Ocean Service and revised in the early 1990s, serves as a record of the maritime infrastructure and underwater contours required for safely managing the bay's busy shipping lanes and environmental management zones.
