La isla de Culebra y sus islitas asociadas (cayos) están ubicadas a 17 millas al este de la isla principal de Puerto Rico y 9 millas al norte de la isla de Vieques.

El Programa de Restauración Ambiental de Defensa (DERP, por sus siglas en inglés) de Estados Unidos fue establecido por la Sección 211 de la Ley de Reautorización y Enmiendas del Superfondo (SARA, por sus siglas en inglés) de 1986.

Entre 1903 y 1975, la Marina de los EE. UU. y el Cuerpo de la Marina de los EE. UU. utilizaron Culebra para reabastecer de carbón a los barcos, para comunicaciones y entrenamiento. El Cuerpo de Ingenieros del Ejército de los EE. UU. (USACE, por sus siglas en inglés) dividió la isla y los cayos en áreas de proyectos independientes a fin de priorizar las investigaciones ambientales para atender la posible presencia de municiones (seleccione la pestaña Área del Proyecto a la izquierda para ver un mapa y una lista). Esta priorización no incluyó el área designada como Noroeste de la Península ya que la ley que autorizó transferir la propiedad de la Marina al Estado Libre Asociado de Puerto Rico prohíbe el uso de fondos federales para su limpieza. Sin embargo, el Congreso autorizó la restauración de algunas áreas recreativas dentro del Noroeste de la Península, específicamente, porciones de las playas Carlos Rosario, Tamarindo y Flamenco; Sendero Carlos Rosario; y el área de acampar de Flamenco.

The island of Culebra, and its associated islands (cayos or keys), are located 17 miles east of the mainland of Puerto Rico and 9 miles north of the island of Vieques. 

The Defense Environmental Restoration Program (DERP) was established by Section 211 of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) of 1986.

Between 1903 and 1975, the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Marine Corps used Culebra to resupply coal on ships, communications, and training.  The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) divided the island and cayos into project areas in order to prioritize environmental investigations to address the potential presence of munitions (click the Project Area tab to left to see a map and list).  This prioritization did not include the area designated as the Northwest Peninsula since the law that authorized transferring the property from the Navy to the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico prohibits the use of federal funds for its cleanup.  However, Congress did authorize restoration of some recreational areas within the Northwest Peninsula, specifically, portions of the Carlos Rosario, Tamarindo, and Flamenco beaches; Carlos Rosario Trail; and the Flamenco campground.
