Establishment of the World War II Valor In the Pacific National Monument
President George W. Bush established the World War II Valor in the Pacific National Monument under the Antiquities Act, designating approximately 6,310 acres across nine historic sites in Hawaii, Alaska, and California to commemorate the Pacific theater of World War II. The proclamation withdraws federal lands from development and directs the Secretary of the Interior to manage the monument through the National Park Service and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, with a management plan due within three years.
