Spoil Island Designations

• Active (Recreation): Large islands with open areas that could support construction of permanent facilities (campsites, sanitary facilities, barbecue pits, docks, etc.). These islands are ideal spots for picnicking, sunbathing, swimming, and primitive overnight camping.

• Passive (Recreation): Small or densely vegetated islands that cannot support the development of structures. These islands should only be used for daytime recreation.

• Education: Islands: that possess diverse (mainly native) habitats and thus are of high value in education programs. These islands should not be used for camping or other recreational activities. These islands are ideal for school children, scout troops, and other groups desiring to learn more about the environment.

• Conservation: Islands which typically have the highest percentage of native resources both on and around the island. These fragile islands are not to be used for public recreation.
