About This Lease
The primary purposes of Motor Island Wildlife Management Area (WMA) are for wildlife management, wildlife habitat management, and wildlife-dependent recreation. This is a 6-acre island located in the Upper Niagara River off of Grand Island. Currently, there is no public access onto the island. It is posted as a restricted area to protect the colonial water birds. The only access to the island is during the waterfowl hunting season by permit only. There are designated waterfowl hunting blind locations along the shoreline for waterfowl hunting. The permit and lottery for blind selection is coordinated by Beaver Island State Park. The area was purchased in 1998 by the DEC with funding from the 1996 Environmental Quality Bond Act. The area was acquired to protect habitat for a unique group of colonial nesting birds which is part of a large significant coastal habitat critical to the Niagara River Ecosystem.
