Current through June, 2024
The department intends:
(1) To establish a marine refuge in the
				  Northwestern Hawaiian Islands for the long-term conservation and protection of
				  the unique coral reef ecosystems and the related marine resources and species,
				  to ensure their conservation and natural character for present and future
				  generations;
(2) To manage,
				  preserve, protect, and conserve the unique resources in the marine refuge,
				  using the best available science and a precautionary management approach to
				  resource protection to minimize risks of possible adverse effects on the
				  regional ecosystem, its biodiversity or its indigenous wildlife in this area,
				  especially where data is limited;
(3) To implement an entry permit program for
				  the area that will cause no harm to the refuge resources and be consistent with
				  the management programs in the adjacent National Wildlife Refuge and the
				  Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Coral Reef Ecosystem Reserve for this area, that
				  preserves the area by limiting entries and restricting access to specific
				  areas;
(4) To support, promote, and
				  coordinate appropriate scientific research and assessment, and long-term
				  monitoring of the refuge resources, and the impacts or threats thereto from
				  human and other activities, to help better understand, protect, manage and
				  conserve consistent with applicable law;
(5) To allow Native Hawaiian cultural,
				  subsistence, and religious practices, and identification and coordination of
				  Native Hawaiian interests, that are consistent with applicable law and the
				  long-term conservation and protection of the resources of the marine
				  refuge;
(6) To coordinate
				  management and process permit review among the department, the U.S. Fish and
				  Wildlife Service, the National Marine Fisheries Service, the National Ocean
				  Service, and other entities, as appropriate, to provide comprehensive
				  conservation of the coral reef ecosystem and related marine resources and
				  species throughout the area, consistent with applicable authorities and
				  management principles, including cleanup and prevention of marine debris,
				  restoration or remediation of degraded or injured resources, enforcement and
				  surveillance, management of potential tourism, recreational, and commercial
				  activities and actions needed to ensure they do not degrade the resources or
				  diminish the natural character of the marine refuge; and
(7) To be consistent with federal law where
				  federal law is applicable.
