<div id="ygrps-yiv-1534070296">I just posted in &quot;photos&quot; a smalll version of the map of the nautical<br/>
boundaries that the US State Department created according to input<br/>
from the British, after DoS was unable to get the map attached to the<br/>
treaty.<br/>
<br/>
Anyone who would like the large scan can ask off-line.<br/>
<br/>
It is clear that the eastern SBA forms a closed area - the E & W<br/>
borders meet about 32 nautical miles off shore (within which there are<br/>
international waters eliminating any chance of the area being an<br/>
enclave or an exclave.  The British claim 3 miles of sovereign<br/>
territory off shore under existing treaties to which the British<br/>
subscribe, and the Cypriots claim 12.  <br/>
<br/>
With the SBA also comprised of a pumping station or whatever it is,<br/>
the sea boundaries would be incomplete, unless the pumping station on<br/>
the coast has no maritime component (and is therefore enclaved).  Can<br/>
anyone help with that?  <br/>
