DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:

This dataset was created by reselecting the counties from the County Boundaries (CNTBND) layer for each DOT District, and then dissolving the county boundaries to leave only the DOT District Boundaries. DOT Turnpike district is not represented in this layer as it follows toll roads and not county boundaries.
