evidence: c. State practice supports the U.S. view that Howland and Baker are not rocks under article 121(3). There are many examples of relatively small, uninhabited features around or from which countries have established Exclusive Economic Zones. Of direct relevance to this case, Kiribati has claimed its EEZ measured in part from McKean Island, a feature quite similar to Baker Island. Edmonds Deposition 14-15 and Exhibits 1, 2 and 8; http://www.pacificislandtravel.com/Kiribati/about_destin/mckean.html. Other examples include France, which in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, has established EEZ’s around islands in French Polynesia, French Southern Ocean islands (Kerguelen Islands), Australia around Heard Island; islands of the Mozambique Channel, and Clipperton Island; Fiji has established an EEZ around Ceva-i-Ra (Thjeva-i-Ra); Mexico has established an EEZ around Clarion and Roca Portida islets in the Pacific; Venezuela established an EEZ around Aves Island. (Van Dyke Deposition 23, 39; Smith Deposition 100) The United States gave full effect to Aves Islands in the Maritime Boundary Treaty between the United States and Venezuela of March 28, 1978, 23 U.S.T. 3100; in doing so, the United States recognized Venezuela’s right to claim an EEZ from Aves Island.
