Description
Abstract
Lakes and bays data for CARTOGRAPHIC purposes only.
Purpose
This feature class is a component of TPWD 'base' data. 
'Base' data includes current, statewide geospatial information intended to provide context for mapping purposes.
Supplemental Information
Source data from TxDOT, BTS, and USGS NHD were manipulated to create an aesthetic cartographic product when displayed on a map with county and cartographic river feature classes. Geometry of the bays were changed to conform to county boundaries. The feature class extends three nautical miles past the barrier islands on the coast.
This feature class is meant to be used with the cartographic "River" file. Combined, the two feature classes ensure that water segments in the state that are supposed to connect are displayed as continuous. 
THIS FEATURE CLASS SHOULD BE USED FOR CARTOGRAPHIC PURPOSES ONLY. NOT ALL WATERBODIES ARE REPRESENTED.
