See the 'whatsnew.txt' for the 2019 data update here.

Our function, get_regions() relies on the README.txt which lists the region .zip filenames.

Region filenames will now be located at file

So, TO DO =

[ ] Scrape the nabbs metadata file for REGION names OR
[x] Save an updated version of the filenames (.zip) to a data file in our package... OR
[ ] Scrape .zip names from PDF file Section B

GRRRRR

Addressed in recent dev branch . Added data zip_states.

Still need to integrate into get_regions()
