The Territorial Clause of the Constitution authorizes the Congress to “make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property” of the United States.2 Relying on the Territorial Clause, the Congress has enacted legislation making some provisions of the Constitution explicitly applicable in the insular areas. In addition to this congressional action, courts from time to time have ruled on the application of constitutional provisions to one or more of the insular areas. You asked us to update our 1991 report to you on the applicability of provisions of the Constitution to five insular areas: Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (the CNMI), American Samoa, and Guam. You asked specifically about significant judicial and legislative developments concerning the political or tax status of these areas, as well as court decisions since our earlier report involving the applicability of constitutional provisions to these areas.

  • Monitoring Supports Establishment of Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument
    Proceedings of the 12 th International Coral Reef Symposium, Cairns, Australia, 9-13 July 2012 18F Does monitoring lead to improved coral reef management? Monitoring supports establishment of Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument Jean Kenyon 1, James Maragos 1, Peter Vroom 2 1U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, Honolulu, HI U.S.A. 2Ocean Associates, San Diego, CA, contracted to NOAA Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center, Coral Reef Ecosystem Division, Honolulu, HI, U.S.A. Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract. The U.S. Pacific Remote Islands consist of Howland, Baker, and Jarvis Islands, Johnston, Wake, and Palmyra Atolls, and Kingman Reef. Except for Wake, these islands and nearshore reefs have been administered as National Wildlife Refuges by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) as early as 1926. Before regular marine assessment and monitoring efforts began in 2000, scientists had visited these locations to collect fishes, corals, and other reef life, but few systematic reef surveys were accomplished. Since 2000, systematic inventory and monitoring surveys for fishes, corals, and benthic algae have been conducted by NOAA and USFWS during biennial cruises. Knowledge of the biodiversity, community structure, and condition of these reefs has increased dramatically because of these cooperative monitoring efforts, exemplified by the increase in number of stony corals reported at Howland from 25 to 109, at Baker from 28 to 104, at Jarvis from 0 to 70, at Palmyra from 72 to 177, at Kingman from 0 to 182, at Johnston from 38 to 49, and at Wake from 52 to 97. Informed through these survey efforts of the diversity and abundance of marine biota supported on these central Pacific reefs, President George W.

  • Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument
    U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument The Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument falls within the Central Pacific Ocean, ranging from Wake Atoll in the northwest to Jarvis Island in the southeast. The seven atolls and islands included within the monument are farther from human population centers than any other U.S. area. They represent one of the last frontiers and havens for wildlife in the world, and comprise the most widespread collection of coral reef, seabird, and shorebird protected areas on the planet under a single nation’s jurisdiction. At Howland Island, Baker Island, Jarvis Island, Palmyra Atoll, and Kingman Reef, the terrestrial areas, reefs, and waters out to 12 nautical miles (nmi) are part of the National Wildlife Refuge System. The land areas at Wake Atoll and Johnston Atoll remain under the jurisdiction of The giant clam, Tridacna gigas, is a clam that is the largest living bivalve mollusk. the U.S. Air Force, but the waters from Photo: © Kydd Pollock 0 to 12 nmi are protected as units of the National Wildlife Refuge System.

  • Coral Reef Condition Status Report for the Pacific Remote Islands
    Coral reef condition: 2018 A status report for the GOOD PACIFIC REMOTE ISLANDS Coral reefs are important Healthy coral reefs are among the most biologically diverse, culturally significant, and economically valuable ecosystems Biodiversity is a measure of the variety of living on Earth. They are nursery grounds for fish and other organisms. High biodiversity of corals, fish, and other organisms, provide food and jobs for people, and protect organisms helps keep the ecosystem in balance and coasts against erosion around the world. makes it resilient to environmental impacts. Although we measure biodiversity, the science is not yet The U.S. Pacific Remote Islands encompass seven islands mature enough to score biodiversity in an area. As the and atolls scattered across the central Pacific Ocean science and analysis progress, we will look to include that represent relatively pristine, beautiful, and wild coral biodiversity scores in future status reports. reef ecosystems. Howland, Baker, and Jarvis Islands are geographically situated near the equator. Kingman Reef and Palmyra Atoll are north of Jarvis Island, and Wake Atoll and Johnston Atoll are farther north and west of Kingman Reef. Each of the islands has a different land area, reef area, and population (see figure below). In general, the Pacific Remote Islands are just that—remote, relatively unimpacted islands with diverse coral and fish populations and low human influence. The condition of the reefs can be used as a baseline from which to draw conclusions about potential impacts, such as coral bleaching, overfishing, and climate change. These islands present an opportunity to study how sea level rise, ocean acidification, and warming waters affect coral reefs in the absence of substantial human influence.

KIRKPATRICK and ANY AND ALL UNKNOWN PERSONS WHO CLAIM AN INTEREST IN THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS ACTION. Cross-claim Defendants. ______________________________________________________________________________ FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND ORDER ______________________________________________________________________________ Kane, J. This action is brought by plaintiff Pine River Irrigation District (“PRID”) against the United States pursuant to the Quiet Title Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2409a, to quiet title to an alleged right of way or easement for a dam and reservoir located at Emerald Lake in the Weminuche Wilderness in southwest Colorado. The government denies the claimed right of way exists and has counterclaimed against PRID and cross-claimed against four individuals and any and all unknown persons who claim an interest in the alleged right of way, seeking to quiet its title. The action is before me on the parties’ request, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 52, for findings of fact and conclusions of law regarding legal issues raised by the stipulated historical record. These issues, which will either resolve or limit the scope of this action, include: whether PRID filed this action within the applicable statute of limitations; whether the disputed right of way was established as claimed under the Act of March 3, 1891 (“1891 Act”), 26 Stat.
