The President of the United States can establish a national monument by presidential proclamation, and the United States Congress can by legislation. The Antiquities Act of 1906 authorized the president to proclaim "historic landmarks, historic and prehistoric structures, and other objects of historic or scientific interest" as national monuments.[1]

Interior Department memorandum

In a 2010 "Not for Release" memorandum by the United States Department of the Interior 14 areas were listed in the "Prospective Conservation Designation" attachment as "good candidates for National Monument designation under the Antiquities Act".[2] Those areas are included in the lists below, shaded bluish-green.

In subsequent attachments in the same draft "areas worthy of protection that are ineligible for Monument Designation and unlikely to receive legislative protection in the near term" and "cost estimates" of "high priority land-rationalization efforts" were listed.[2]

Formerly proposed national monuments

Some areas have been proposed as a national monument earlier, but are no longer listed above, because they are now designated as national monuments or are protected via a different designation, e.g. as a national park or wilderness area in the National Wilderness Preservation System. Some reasons for keeping them in the following list might be:

  • The proposed area is now included in another, larger area which is protected. (Symbol: )
  • A smaller part of the originally proposed area is now protected. (Symbol: )
  • The area was officially proposed for monument designation by a federal or state agency or department, e.g. in the memorandum mentioned above, and was subsequently protected. Those entries are shaded with a bluish-green background. (Symbol: {{checkmark}} - marks all monuments protected, including some after proposals from non-governmental organizations)
