The new regulations refers to 50fathom RCA line frequently. Not able to find one available from the web, so I collected the GPS coordinates from federal regulations (50 CFR Part 660,Subpart C), and converted the data into KML format, and combined the data with MPA map. Here is the shared google map link for the combined map:
