McNeil Island
McNeil Island is an island in western Puget Sound, located just west of Steilacoom, Washington, with a land area of 17.177 km² (6.6319 sq mi). It lies just north of Anderson Island. Fox Island is to the north, across Carr Inlet. To the west McNeil Island is separated from Key Peninsula by Pitt Passage. The Washington mainland lies to the east, across the south basin of Puget Sound.
Special Commitment Center
The Special Commitment Center in the state of Washington is a post-sentence treatment institution for Sexually Violent Predators, located on McNeil Island. It is controversial in that it allows the involuntary commitment of sex offenders who have served their prison sentence. However, as in other psychiatric institutions across the country, civil commitment is based on dangerousness related to a mental abnormality.
Carr Inlet
Carr Inlet, in southern Puget Sound in the U.S. state of Washington, is an arm of water between Key Peninsula and Gig Harbor Peninsula. Its southern end is connected to the southern basin of Puget Sound. Northward, it separates McNeil Island and Fox Island as well as the peninsulas of Key and Gig Harbor. The northern end of Carr Inlet is named Henderson Bay. Carr Inlet was named by Charles Wilkes during the Wilkes Expedition of 1838-1842, to honor Overton Carr, one of the expedition's officers.
Eagle Island State Park (Washington)
Eagle Island State Park in Pierce County, Washington is one of the Washington State Parks. It is a 10 acres marine park on Eagle Island in Balch Passage between McNeil and Anderson Islands in South Puget Sound. Available activities include beachcombing, birdwatching, and wildlife viewing. The park is administered as a satellite park of Jarrell Cove State Park. This minuscule island was named not for the bird but for Harry Eagle, one of the party members of the Wilkes Expedition of 1841.
McNeil Island Corrections Center
The McNeil Island Corrections Center (MICC) was a Washington State Department of Corrections prison on McNeil Island in unincorported Pierce County, Washington, near Steilacoom. Opened in 1875, it had previously served as a territorial correctional facility and then a Federal Bureau of Prisons facility.
