Hi Angie,

To clarify, the NOAA charts are still avail. It's the NGA charts that
seem to have been largely removed.

     We've been "recataloging" our nautical charts and going to the extra
     effort to put urls in the records when available. Michael, your email
     had me in a minor panic like ... all that work for nothing!! But, I see
     that the links to sheets are still active.

     Examples:

     http://www.charts.noaa.gov/__OnLineViewer/11489.shtml
     <http://www.charts.noaa.gov/OnLineViewer/11489.shtml>
     http://www.charts.noaa.gov/__OnLineViewer/11304.shtml
     <http://www.charts.noaa.gov/OnLineViewer/11304.shtml>

     I hope someone on the list (John Cloud) will help us understand things
     here ...

     I just discovered that many of these charts--charts that had been
     available electronically at
     http://www.nauticalcharts.__noaa.gov/mcd/NGAChartViewer.__html--have
     <http://www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/mcd/NGAChartViewer.html--have> been
     recently removed from public access. Judging from the (vague)
"important
     note" at the top of the page, it's a copyright issue.

     Anybody have details? And does anybody have an alternate source?

     Thanks.
