  • San Juan Islands National Monument Site Catalog June 2017
    San Juan Islands National Monument Site Catalog June 2017 San Juan Islands National Monument BLM Lopez Island Office PO Box 3 Lopez, WA 98261 37 Washburn Place Phone: (360) 468-3051 Email: blm_or_sanjuanisland.gov Introduction In 2013, President Obama designated approximately 1,000 acres of federally managed land as the San Juan Islands National Monument. This site catalog provides a snapshot of existing resources and uses on the Monument landscapes. The catalog includes approximately 700 acres currently under Bureau of Land Management (BLM) jurisdiction and nearly 300 acres withdrawn to the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) that are in the process of being relinquished to the Bureau. The BLM and USCG currently co-manage those lands. Today the BLM is in the process of developing a land use plan for the Monument. Anticipated to be published in 2018, the planning process considers a range of potential management approaches and may redefine the activities that the BLM encourages or prohibits in each Monument location. When the final plan and environmental impact statement is published the activities allowed at any given location may differ from those described in this site catalog. Anyone visiting after the summer of 2018 should contact the Monument office on Lopez Island (see cover page for contact information) for updated information. The Monument is located within the traditional use area of a number of Native American Tribes who continue to utilize and value the lands and resources in the Salish Sea region. Fishing, hunting, gathering, and other traditional activities by tribal members are protected by treaty. Please be respectful of the area’s tribal heritage and of activities that may be taking place during your visit.
