Sec. 26.102  Service areas.

    GWCS service areas are based on Economic Areas developed by the 
Bureau of Economic Analysis, Department of Commerce, referred to as 
``EAs'' and three additional EA-like service areas: Guam and the 
Northern Mariana Islands (combined as one service area), Puerto Rico and 
the United States Virgin Islands (combined as one service area), and 
American Samoa.
    (a) Economic Areas. Codes from 001 to 172 are assigned to the EAs in 
approximate geographic order, beginning with 001 in northern Maine, 
continuing south to Florida, then north to the Great Lakes, and 
continuing in a serpentine pattern to the West Coast. Except for the 
Western Oklahoma EA (126), the Northern Michigan EA (058), and the 17 
EAs that mainly correspond to consolidated metropolitan statistical 
areas (CMSAs), each EA is named for the metropolitan area or city that 
is the node of its largest component

economic area (CEA) and that is usually, but not always, the largest 
metropolitan area or city in the EA. Each CEA consists of a single 
economic node and the surrounding counties that are economically related 
to the node. The following list provides EA codes and names.
