U.S. shorebird conservation plan, U.S. Pacific Islands regional shorebird conservation plan. The U.S. Pacific Islands Region (USPI) is often overlooked as an important region for shorebirds largely due to its isolation, vast geography and small land base. However the region supports a surprising number of birds and is important in maintenance of global shorebird populations. USPI includes the Hawaiian Islands, Guam and the Northern Marianas Islands, Wake Island and Johnston Atoll, Baker & Howland Islands, Jarvis, Kingman Reef, and Palmyra, and the islands of American Samoa. This plan addresses monitoring, research, and educational priorities.
