    In 1996 Congress created the Boston Harbor Islands National 
Recreation Area to recognize the rich natural and cultural resources 
and history found on the 30 islands located in Boston Harbor. The 
legislation (P.L. 104-333) established a thirteen-member partnership to 
jointly manage the Islands. The 13-member Partnership represents city, 
state, federal and private agencies with responsibilities for the 
harbor islands.
