Abstract

President George W. Bush created the world’s largest marine conservation area off the coast of the northern Hawaiian Islands in order to permanently protect the area’s pristine coral reefs and unique marine species. On 15 June 2006, the President used his authority under the Antiquities Act to designate the area a national monument.
