US-ENVIRONMENT-NWHI-MOKUMANAMANA
Fish are pictured in this recent, undated handout photograph at Rapture Reef in the French Frigate Shoals of the Northwestern Hawaii Islands. US President George W. Bush on 15 June 2006 designated the Northwestern Hawaii Islands, spanning 1,400 miles of the Pacific Ocean, as a national monument giving it one of the highest levels of protection. Only those with permits for very specific activities will now have access to the region — permits can be obtained for: research, education, conservation and management, native Hawaiian practices, recreation activities and non-extractive special ocean uses.
