  • Letter to SHPO Draft MITT SFP Comments
    December 16, 2020 Carlotta Leon Guerrero Acting Guam State Historic Preservation Officer Guam State Historic Preservation Office Department of Parks and Recreation 490 Chålan Palåsyo Agana Heights, 96910 Via email: [email protected] Subject: 2020 Draft Programmatic Agreement Among the Commander, Joint Region Marianas and the Guam State Historic Preservation Officer, Regarding Military Training and Testing on, and within the Surrounding Waters of the Island of Guam Buenas yan Håfa Adai, While I appreciate the opportunity to comment on the draft Mariana Islands Training and Testing (MITT) Programmatic Agreement (PA), it must be stated that the document that has been presented to the public constitutes an injustice to the CHamoru people, as it will repeat the mistakes of past programmatic agreements that privilege military use of our land and water over our indigenous practices without genuinely safeguarding our historic sites, our cultural resources, and our heritage from the impacts of the federal actions, identified and unidentified, both of which are covered in the PA. Throughout our experience, programmatic agreements have provided little to no recourse of protecting our sacred and unique heritage, as is the case with Mågua village, Tailålo’, Litekyan, countless burial and latte sites, and the natural landscapes that are integral to our historic sites and districts. If we are to truly safeguard our cultural and environmental resources, the PA should not be entered into unless it can guarantee the full protection of our unique and sacred heritage. This draft PA fails to do so, especially with a massive and long-term undertaking such as the MITT. Should the Leon Guerrero-Tenorio Administration pursue the PA, I recommend that consultations be terminated at this time to allow for broader public input to create a document that ensures preservation of our burials, historic sites and districts, cultural practices, our heritage, and mandates transparency, accountability, and restitution, not mitigation.

  • GAO-11-459R Military Buildup on Guam Grow from About 15,000 in 2007 to About 39,000 by 2020
    United States Government Accountability Office Washington, DC 20548 June 27, 2011 The Honorable Tim Johnson Chairman The Honorable Mark Kirk Ranking Member Subcommittee on Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Committee on Appropriations United States Senate Subject: Military Buildup on Guam: Costs and Challenges in Meeting Construction Timelines In 2004, the bilateral U.S. and Japanese Security Consultative Committee began a series of sustained security consultations to strengthen the U.S.-Japan security alliance by establishing a framework for the future of the U.S. force structure in Japan. The United States and Japan agreed to reduce the U.S. force structure in Japan while maintaining the U.S. force presence in the Pacific theater by relocating units to other areas, including Guam. As part of this effort, called the Defense Policy Review Initiative, about 8,600 Marines and 9,000 dependents were to move from Okinawa, Japan, to Guam by a projected date of 2014, as described in the bilateral agreement.1 On June 21, 2011, however, United States and Government of Japan officials noted that completion of the Marine relocation will not meet the previously targeted date of 2014, but confirmed their commitment to complete the relocation at the earliest possible date after 2014. 2 The Department of Defense (DOD) also plans to move other military forces and equipment to Guam on different schedules in implementing a new strategic approach in the Pacific as part of its worldwide Integrated Global Presence and Basing Strategy. These latter initiatives involve each of the military services and the Army National Guard working concurrently to complete infrastructure projects to support Guam-based U.S.
