Rich Steele celebrates the Hanford Beach National Monument on the Columbia River as Clinton expands monuments across the West. The president invoked the Antiquities Act to designate protected areas, drawing praise from environmentalists and criticism from some lawmakers while officials weigh local support and impacts on mining, farming, and logging.
President Clinton used the Antiquities Act to create nine new national monuments and enlarge one. The list includes California Coastal, Pinnacles expansion, Canyons of the Ancients, Grand Canyon-Parashant, and Hanford Reach. Rich Steele recalls Hanford Beach activism and the river’s preservation as federal action follows local debates. Gore and Sen. Murray joined celebrations on June 9 when Hanford Reach National Monument was designated.
