This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for federally endangered and threatened plants, rare state plants, and sensitive ecological communities in South Carolina. Vector polygons in this data set represent federally endangered and threatened plant, rare state plant, and sensitive ecological community distributions. Species specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in relational data tables (described below) designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer. This data set comprises a portion of the ESI data for South Carolina. ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources.
