Kahoolawe Island Reserve - Hawaii

Boundary of the marine portions of the Kahoolawe Island Reserve for the island of Kahoolawe in Hawaii. Beginning in World War II, Kahoolawe was used as a training ground and bombing range by the U.S. military. After decades of protests, the Navy ended live-fire training in 1990 and the island was transferred to the State of Hawaii in 1994. The state legislature established the Kahoolawe Island Reserve to restore and oversee the island and its surrounding waters. Today, Kahoolawe can be used only for native Hawaiian cultural, spiritual, and subsistence purposes. All entry to the reserve must be authorized by the Kahoolawe Island Reserve Commission.
