The *National Coastal Condition Report II* (NCCR II), January 2005, is the second in a series of environmental assessments of U.S. coastal 		waters and the Great Lakes. The report includes assessments of 100 percent of the nation's estuaries in the contiguous 48 states and Puerto Rico. Estuaries 		are bodies of water where fresh water from rivers meets the salt waters of the ocean. This interaction provides a unique, highly productive environment that 		supports a great diversity of wildlife and fisheries and contributes tremendous value to the nation's economy.
