Ngerukewid Islands Wildlife Preserve management plan, 1989(established in 1956 and is the only legally established area for the protection of the natural environment in Palau; plan proposes changing name to Ngerukewid Islands Nature Reserve because purpose of preserve is more than just preservation of wildlife indicated in title. The preservation of all biota, not just wildlife, is clearly intended by the legislation, as is protection of the ecologoical processes which sustain Ngerukewid in its 'primitive condition.')
