US, Canada to negotiate maritime boundary in Beaufort Sea -statement

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United State and Canada on Tuesday announced a plan to negotiate the maritime boundary in the Beaufort Sea, creating a task force this autumn to negotiate the shared northern boundary and resolve the overlap along the continental shelf.

The group will work toward a final agreement covering the border area, which lies north of Alaska, Yukon and the Northwest Territories, the U.S. State Department said.
