President Barack Obama speaks before signing a document designating the Point Arena-Stornetta Public Lands as part of the California Coastal National Monument, Tuesday, March 11, 2014, during a signing ceremony in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington. The action will permanently protect some 1,665 acres of federal lands on the Mendocino County coast in Northern California, just north of Point Arena. It will expand a national monument created in 2000 by President Bill Clinton to include coastal bluffs and shelves, tide pools, onshore sand dunes, coastal prairies, riverbanks and the mouth and estuary of the Garcia River.
